HEY GUYS!!
I know there are tons of threads about the TEAS V test, but i have a question I cant find the answer too. I am set to take my TEAS test in 2 weeks. My problem is I have horrible test anxiety. I could study super hard for a test, and as soon as I start to take the test I FORGET EVERYTHING. This has been a serious problem for me for years, but its something I cannot control. As a result of this, Ive been procrastinating and I have not went to take the test yet, even though i payed for it 6 months ago. All i need is a 45 to get into the program. I was wondering if anybody could give me some pointers to get pass this test anxiety. Also any tips and pointers on passing the TEAS V will also be greatly apperciated. ALL I NEED IS A 45!!

You only need a 45?? That is incredibly low. Test anxiety or not, if you can't get a 45, you will not survive nursing school. Sorry if that's harsh, but the TEAS is nothing compared to nursing school exams. I'm sure there are resources to help with test anxiety. If anything, learn meditation which will help you learn to control your breathing and calm yourself down.

A 45 is very low. Are you sure that accurate!?
If you are planing on doing well in Nursing school you will need to be better at taking tests. The teas isn't anything compared to the questions you will face on the nclex or any other exams in the program.

Yeah 45 is really low. Some community colleges requires 65+ and other schools 75+. The higher the better chance of getting in.
Goodluck to you anyway!

The comment above is right. I'm about to enter my 2nd semester of nursing school and it's tough. Very tough. Nursing school exams r crazy hard. Scoring a 45 isn't good. And why are you looking at a nursing school that requires a 45 anyway? That's a red flag. 60 & up are good scores.
But make sure to review the textbook manual. Everything you need to know is in that book. Watch YouTube videos on topics you forgot. And if you have to reach out to other students that already go there & ask them for any other advice then do that too. What I did the most was watch YouTube videos- it really helps
