I just took my teas test and I feel like such an idiot! I did not even complete the math section, I expected them to give a "five minuet" warning so you could do a fast skim and at least guess answers real quick.. So that got me all nervous after that. I even studied. I felt like they did not even give you enough time to think! Did any one else feel sick after taking it? :barf02: It was all basic stuff I should not have let this happen! I can repeat it once, any one else have to?

You poor thing. If you have to retake the test at least you know what to expect......{{{{hug}}}}

I'd freak during a test like that:uhoh3:

You might have done better than you think. Keeping my fingers crossed. Good luck. :balloons:

Bummer. I hope you do better than you are thinking. I have an MS in math, so I knew it would be easy for me. I was surprised to notice during the test that others were done way ahead of me. I only had a few minutes at the very end to check some of my answers. I did really well (99th). I think the people around me were guessing because they were clueless, and that was why they finished quickly. The math is a tough section to finish in the alotted time. Hopefully you made up for the ones you didn't finish with the ones you took your time on and got correct. :)

When will you find out?

Hopefully you did better than you think you did!

If not, like the above poster said, you will know what to expect the next time.

Don't give up! :)

Hi HeartsOpenWide:

There is always a life lesson somewhere. I think this one is: wear a watch and make note of the time rather than depend on them to give you a 5 minute warning. They are expecting you to keep track of your time; they also do not want to disturb people during the test. Now you know what you need to brush up on and can be more prepared the next time. Who knows, you might have done better than you think... Hang in there.
