Ivy Tech TEAS and APHY 201 ?

U.S.A. Indiana

Published

I know there are a ton of TEAS support threads and I'm so grateful for them, but I am seriously freaking out. This should be a simple academic skills test right? I earned A's in all 4 pre reqs and now my entire future is resting on this darn test (drama queen, I know). The more practice skills assesments I take online, the worse I do! I bought the ATI manual and online test and did OK in Reading, Spelling and Math (80's or 90's) but Science I got a 45% in! I'm trying to "study" but how do you relearn your entire elementary education in a week or two? Then I went to the test preview website and took the vocab section questions - my lord those don't even make sense to me. I know I'm not dumb, but I don't do well on tests and since I can only take this test 3x ever, I don't know how to calm down about it. Wisdom and advice please :confused:

Use the practice exams on the course compass web site. Take them over and over. That works for me.

If Kokomo uses the same text as Evansville Ivy Tech Hole's Human Anatomy & Physiology 11th edition. Look on page 709 & 710 for digestive system. The chapter summary. Our teacher gives a study guide for the test, but basically the study guide is the chapter summary on paper. I just memorize it. The chapter summary is all the critical info pulled out of the chapter.

You're talking about Advanced Physio, right? Everyone that I know that has taken this course has said that it is extremely difficult!!! I've decided to take one of the other options. I'm too scared of that class!

Sorry,

I thought you meant aphy 102. I don't plan on taking that class. I'm sticking with Micro & Chem.

I replied too quick on this one...sorry. Course compass is for ANP 102 . I do plan on taking 201, hopefully I will find a study buddy for test also.

I checked last night I think and all the CHEM 101 courses through SB are full.

Kgle,

Don't know if you're still interested, but there are 3 spots open for CHEM101, online out of SB. Section 14588. HTH

Specializes in MICU - CCRN, IR, Vascular Surgery.

Aphy 201 is *incredibly* difficult and I feel like I'm barely treading water. However, I'm committed to sticking it out because I feel like I'll be more prepared for nursing school with the experience I'm gaining in this class.

when taking the TEAS, look at the subject headings under each section (for instance, verbal reasoning, algebra, etc.) and study up on those sections that caused the deficiency. no use studying all over again what you excelled in before. that way, you only study the problem areas.
