Nursing Students TEAS

A month? Two?
I'm nervous about math. The only college level math I've taken is statistics!

I took a few days. I read the ATI study guide cover to cover and marked the stuff I felt I needed to spend time on, then focused on that. I think it was maybe two days of that at the most, and I got a 96.

Math and science you should just know but English grammar questions? I at least did know know it so well apparently. That's where I oughta brush up.

Don't listen to those who say "don't study." Especially when you said that you weren't really comfortable with the math. If you decide to study the manual, work on the ones that you are weakest in and go from there.

Do a practice test or two. It's a lot of common knowledge. Study what you know you will be weak at. Most importantly don't psych yourself out.

If i was to give my 2 cents.. go on quizlet or just google teas test quiz.. its easy to pass with a little remembrance of some of the common questions. i looked over a lot of the quizlet cards online and various online test and when i took the test.. there was probably a good 40% of the quiz that had questions nearly identical or were the exact same question... and because i knew if from other quizzes.. it was a quick and painless test. I finished it first the day i took it and scored a 88 on it. I never actually knew alot of the info off of the test with lack of experience in my past.. but just seeing it on other quizzes i was able to fly through it... I think the test is pointless because most of the questions on that test have no real world usefulness... especially the ones when they ask you determine the distance from the airport they are and such.. unless nursing turns into a calculated measure of how far your patients are from you at the location you are.. im ok not caring about those types of questions.

Never take any test with some preparation. It would be worth the time and money to go ahead and get the ATI study guide. It comes with practice test. If you know you have a weakness in any area, concentrate on that area. Keep us posted!!
