TEAS in 5 Days!

Nursing Students TEAS

Published

So I just got my teas study manual the other day and the last day to take the teas exam for my school is on Friday!

I don't think I have enough time to study. But I have no choice. ... what are the main things I should concentrate on?

Im completely freaking out. The school does offer 2 chances to take it but I rather pass on the first go.

Some info if its relevant or not. ....I graduated with a bachelors in bio 2 years ago. I despise chem and physics but managed to pass. Took a/p last summer and I took the HESI exam for another school and got a 89.

What study plan should I use?

Help :(

Hi Zibi:

Two successive deep breaths with 20 second exhales to begin.

Have a quick look at the periodic table, understand the electronegativity trend - its a vector from bottom left up to the top right. Another good place to invest your time is on mitosis and meiosis, Punnett square etc.

A very good online site is the Khan Academy. You can find quick tutorials on most any science subject there. https://www.khanacademy.org/science/biology/heredity-and-genetics/v/introduction-to-heredity

English/Grammar? Try Grammarbook.com, it has 60 second videos on a wide range of grammar topics.

Good Luck, I'm sure you'll do well.

Good luck! I only had a week to study as well, and I managed to pull off an 84. If I can do it, you most certainly can. There are many online resources that can be used for TEAS review.

TEAS® Exam Practice Questions - Raise Your Test of Essential Academic Skills™ Score with our unofficial TEAS® Review Strategies

This is one of the sources I used, mostly for the Reading and Language Comprehension questions. I tend to struggle with those sections the most. Practice the type of questions you find yourself getting wrong. See WHY you're getting them wrong, and keep practicing. Also, don't freak yourself out. It will make you more anxious and unable to remember the things you studied. Deep breaths, you've got this. Good luck!

I heard the science hesi was just like the teas science and the rest of the stuff in the manual is closely related. I honestly wouldn't stress with your background I think you'll do fine!

If I had a short amount of time to study, I would first do one of the practice TEAS tests online -available via ATI testing . Then i'd focus on my weak points. HTH :). GL
