Hey everyone!! I am taking my TEAS next month (June 10th) and I am just wondering if anyone else is soon as well, and what kind of things you are doing / what resources you are using to prepare!! It would be nice to have a place to discuss it and talk about it in general as well, I know that would at least help to ease my own anxiety!!

I took the TEAS in 2017 and will probably have to take it again this Fall. I scored an 85% overall, so not really great but not bad. I found all of the Crash Course A&P youtube videos to be a HUGE help. I also bought the yellow Mometrix TEAS study guide and read it through twice. I made flashcards for things I didn't understand. I am well-versed in English and grammar/language usage and score high in those areas without much studying. The paid-for version of the ATI Pocket Prep TEAS app was also VERY valuable, and I was surprised at how similar many of the questions were compared to the test. Lastly, I joined a Facebook group full of students studying for the TEAS test. I loved being immersed in that kind of community, rallying each other on, quizzing each other, giving tips on memorizing key facts, etc. Good luck!

I'm not sure what area you're in but an 85% would be awesome for me !! That's like exactly what I'm hoping for honestly!! I got the mometrix secrets book as well, and although i did not know about the pocket prep until after, i did buy the TEAS Mastery app. My progress with that just over the last week has steadily improved. I feel great about the reading and language arts, that seems to have always come very naturally for me fortunately, math doesnt scare me although I am definitely reviewing these things, it's the science that has me worried. I LOVE crash course and I have been reviewing the systems with khan academy as well which honestly has helped me SO much already with my two weaker anatomy/physiology subjects, the cardiovascular system and DNA so really hoping that will help me a lot too. Also I JUST requested to join that group i think as i just heard about it in another group!! Thank you for the encouragement. I think I'll be anxious until I see how I do no matter what I do but it at least feels like I'm headed in the right direction!!

Taking mine June 7th! I’ll let you know how that goes. Hoping and praying I get a 70% or higher. I bought the TEAS a study packet through the website and it’s honestly awesome.

Best of luck to you!! I WANT an 85 or higher but a 75 or higher would be great as well!! I've heard the package and tests from the website are some of the best ways to prepare!! Let me know how you do and I will do the same!
