Achieving the Impossible

Hello everyone, I just came across this site and wanted to share my experience taking the TEAS exam and how I’m feeling after my two attempts. The first time, I’ll be straight up honest here, I only studied for two weeks because I thought it was going to be easy. I was wrong and scored low. Not that low but not enough for the program. I scored extremely high in reading, the only subject I consider myself gifted in, and well science was terrible like that was the one that knocked me hard. Math as well since I hate math. The second time I took it was maybe two weeks after my first attempt and I only went up ONE point. This time my reading score went down 20 points and for math, I scored higher than the national average but that’s because my sister tutored me and she’s good at math. Science I went up like 10 points but still low score.I fell into a deep depression and I just felt miserable. I was so upset with myself because I second guessed all my answers the second attempt. Whenever I take tests, it always happens to me. I second guess, zone out, don’t know what I’m reading and panic. I have GAD and tomorrow I’ll be having an evaluation to see if I have ADD/ADHD. Apart from not taking enough time to prep before the exam, would y’all think that my own personal mental struggles be an issue for not doing so great? Also please feel free to leave me some good studying tips. Hopefully this next chance I get will be the one I pass but if I don’t well then nursing isn’t for me. Thank you.
