Fall 2020 College of the Desert

[Sheroe]

Hi All! ?

I just wanted to start a thread for those trying to apply to College of the Desert for Fall 2020. At this point, all that's left for me is to take the TEAS, double check that my science classes will be accepted and that they'll accept my communications class. I'm nervous and excited all at once! Any tips or advice people have heard about the program? Any other random information or tid bits that people know about the program is welcome too! ?

Hi guys! Since you all have taken the TEAS exam, I was wondering if the mometrix book practice tests are similar to the actual TEAS exam. I have my first attempt in 2 days and just wanted to know if what I’ve been studying all Summer (the mometrix book) is worth it. Or should I invest in another TEAS study book. Let me know ?

I think the mometrix book all together is very helpful to build a foundation on what will be on the TEAS! The tests are kind of similar I would say. However, the TEAS exam is actually a lot harder in my opinion. As long as you have been studying weekly for months I think you will be good.  I didn’t study as much as I should have so that’s why I didn’t get a good score. Science and Reading were the hardest!
