New TEAS V Science Section

Nursing Students TEAS

Published

Has anyone taken the latest version, the TEAS V? My test is coming up April 6. I have the ATI version V study guide, and the McGraw Hill book.

What should I be sure to study when it comes to the latest version of the test?

I'm gonna be taking the TEAS V at county in 2 weeks, does anyone have any feedback. Good tips, please....

If you have time to take the practice tests in the book, I would do it. You get alot of information on the wording of the exam and timing yourself.

At the end of each section during the exam, relax and take that few extra minutes before going onto the next section. Good Luck!!:)

Well....i am at Ivy Tech/South Bend and with Teas V score of 82.7% and points from pre-req's(all A's)...I am sitting at 172.7/190. I could just :barf01:. I applied to both ASN and PN (hoping for ASN). I am so nervous of getting a rejection letter I could cry. I know I have to wait until late May/early June for an answer...but I am just wondering if I should even waste the time of being hopeful...I guess all I can do is pray right?

hi I just took Teas version V today, it was very long. I used the Kaplan study guide and prepared for almost a month. I felt the math was very basic , english was not to long or hard, reading was a little hard to figure out what answer they were looking for and the science was either you know the stuff or you dont. I felt the science was all over the place. I passed with a 71% overall score, I needed a 40% to get in thr RN program at my school so I am relieved its over!!!

tly74, I get your degree of nervousness. Was same for me. Your total points and scores look impressive to me, but I'm not familiar with the program you applied to. How competitive is it? Have you heard anything about points and scores for other applicants? How many slots are there?

I was every bit as nervous as you while waiting between the time I submitted application (1/31/11) and received notice 3 days ago. (I was accepted! Time to celebrate! :balloons:) You'll find ways to cope and the time will pass. I kept visualizing myself as receiving the packet with a letter starting with "Congratulations!", me in nursing scrubs and stethoscope around my neck, me in clinicals, etc. It really helped. I also started making preparations that I could move forward on in the event I was accepted. What classes (if any) to take this summer? FAFSA application.

Good luck! You'll find a way to get through the next couple of months and hopefully you will get the best news possible! :yelclap:

KSRN2b...I have no idea how many spots are open (they won't tell us) and as far as scores...they've been in the low 70s for the most part but there are a few people saying they scored in upper 80s but didn't have all A's...so really, it is a guessing game and all I can do is wait. I guess at the age of 36 I just don't want to waste anymore time than I already have...also, I have read alot of people saying their adjusted individual science score was LOW, and in the event of a tie, they use those individual scores as tie-breakers. Thankfully I got 81%-reading, 80%-english, 93.3%-math, and 79.2%-science...so we'll see! fingers crossed! :clown:

tly74, you can do it! Hang in there and report back when you hear your news. Sending lots of kind thoughts your way. I remember how hard the wait was! :hgu:

Hi Everyone, Thanks for all your help. I took the pre-test on the ATI site, and did good

except of course the Science. I would'nt say that I don't need to study more I do, I do

believe me. I will just study all the suggestions everyone has given.

Whoever has taken the test and past "Congratulations", and for the people like myself

who are still plugging away "Good Luck", and "We Can Do It" I'm nervous who am I

kidding, but with all the support from you all it makes me feel not so alone. Thanks.

I take mine May 5th...and I am so nervous. I have to drive to a campus an hour away to take the test because my school doesn't offer it (but they require it...stupid, I know). I'm nervous about the science and math. I'm scared I'll run out of time on the math, because I tend to overthink lol.

I spoke to the nursing advisor at the school I'm applying to, and she told me she bets I'll get in, and not to stress about the TEAS, but of course I will anyways. I'm shooting for at least 80% overall. Do you have to memorize the periodic table though? I know the abbreviations, but should I remember the atomic mass and numbers, etc?

I am getting so nervous. I take my test next Tuesday (April 19th). I am not ready at all. This is my third time taking it but first time taking version 5. I only have to take the science section (my school allows you to only take the section that you didn't pass). I'm planning on doing the online test version A tomorrow and then the day before the test I'll do version B hoping that my score improves. I HAVE to pass. If I do my interview will be scheduled next week and I'll know by the following week and class will begin May 2nd. Yikes! Good luck to everyone else and I'll post after my test.

hi,

if you want a super easy explanation of any topic, check out this website: brainpop.com. yes, it's intended for k-12, but it is pretty useful to just refresh your memory. the best part is that you can get a free 5 day trail. the link for this is at the bottom of the site's homepage.

i saw this website in a ms setting, and the videos are short and target key concepts. of course, there are tons of other, more advanced sites out there. check the teas sticky for suggestions. just wanted to pass this on, in case anyone needs a quick and easy refresher.

good luck everyone.

For the version V, do we have to completely memorize the periodic table for the science part or do they provide it for you? Seems crazy to memorize that thing!

How was the test? I have an unofficial date for May 31.. Curious, should we memorize the periodic table or do they provide it for you? I know the chemistry part is torture.
