I just took the Teas Test

:typing Hi all. I just took the Teas test this morning. I was so sure that I'd find out whether my score was good enough to get into the school --today--but I was told they need to have a meeting to see what the minimum score is that they will accept. There were 4 of us. They will be having the test again 2 more times this month. I figured I could take it again in a couple of weeks if I needed to, but not now. Now I won't know if I'm okay until some time in October!:banghead:

Advice? I would get the ATI study manual and also make sure I got the "on computer" practice test. I was able to buy these, and boy did it help, because the format you take the test in- is the same. It was no surprise how to do it. I ran out of time in the math section. For the last 8 - 10 questions, I just made quick guesses because I only had a minute left. I figured a wrong answer was better than not even trying. I felt sick ;:barf01:I was so nervous durring the math section!!!!

Relieved that it's over!! Study percentages, fractions, anything to do with math!!

I hope I can report that my numbers are good...I know what they are-just not if the're good enough to get me into the school:crying2: Good luck if you're taking it soon!!!:thnkg:

Let's see.... How do you figure the mass of an atom? Know how to form a new atom from the Periodic table of elements; I don't know. Allelles (spelling) were on mine. Questions about rock/plates. My first question was actually on clouds :confused: . I know the last time a patient asked me about clouds ; I didn't know it then either!:chuckle The math was horrific. I studied this the most. I knew how to multiply and add fractions, but drew a blank. I know how to figure percentages, but lost it!!:( I was very panicked seeing the clock tick away. I think there were 45 math questions. That's alot since I had no calculator. All of my scrap paper was used up. It was just awful:grn: Now I get to sit around and wait to find out if I should start all over again:anbd: Can you tell I Love these smilies?:heartbeat

Good luck anyone who is taking it. I'll let ya'll know if I get in when I know!

It must be a big relief. My test is coming up in a few weeks. Is there a lot of spelling and vocabulary? The English part is what is making me the most nervous!

Science portion is no joke. If you can goto the library and check out McGraws nursing school, I swear in hindsight it was like TEAS science section. I bombed in math. But, I did GREAT in Science and English and Reading. I post a link below. I would check it out.

good luck!!
