I took the ATI TEAS yesterday and just wanted to provide some helpful info while it's still fresh in my head.
READING:
Similar to most study guides. Make sure you know the difference between and how to find the main idea, topic, and summary. Questions include reading passages and finding the meaning of words through context. There will be a couple of questions that list sentences in numbers and you'll have to rearrange them according to clarity.
MATH:
SOOOOO much easier with the on screen calculator. Make sure you know ratios, percentages, solving for x, and inequalities. Pretty much the same stuff as the TEAS V.
SCIENCE:
Oh the science portion. This portion has a decent amount of questions that were not in most of the study guides I reviewed. Luckily, I knew the answers from the classes I've taken.
Make sure you know the flow of blood through the heart.
Know which glands secrete which hormones and their functions.
Know the parasympathetic, sympathetic, sensory, and autonomic systems.
Know your electrons, protons, neutrons, and read up on quarks.
You'll have to balance a chemical equation.
Know the scientific method and be able to distinguish control, dependent, and independent variables.
Know the 11 systems.
Know what takes place during digestion in the mouth, stomach, and intestines.
Know what takes place in the small intestine vs. the large intestine.
Know how to do a punnet square.
Know genotype vs. phenotype.
Know meiosis vs. mitosis vs. fertilization.
Know which muscle causes goosebumps.
Know which units are for mass and which are for volume.
Know condensation, vaporization, etc.
Know where gas exchange occurs.
Know the respiratory system.
I'll add more if question come back to mind.
ENGLISH:
This section was easier on the actual test than in the study guides. Make sure you know complex, compound, and simple sentences. Know apostrophes, proper grammar, and punctuation. Know adjectives vs. adverbs vs. verbs. Know independent clauses, dependent clauses and how they can be joined together.
Overall, the ATI TEAS was easier than the TEAS V. I studied for about two weeks using the mometrix study guide. I know I did well on the test and I can update you once I get the results. Don't over do it and focus on anatomy and physiology more than anything else.
You're not bothering me at all. We're here to help each other. You can email me directly at [email protected] and I'll try my best to help as much as I can. Don't be nervous. Tell yourself that you got this and you'll be fine!
So you only studied from the Mometrix study guide?

Maybe one or two questions on my test were from periodic table. Like alkaline & alkaloid groups ... hope I helped!
