1. New TEAS V Science Section

   ZekeMass replied to nepthea's topic in TEAS

   Yes, you can use the remaining time to recheck your answers. Then, when you are done, you press the continue button. At this point you are at an "in-between page", where you cannot go back, and cannot see your first questions for the next section. ...

2. Freshman male student unable to enroll in nursing program

   ZekeMass replied to collegestudentnurse's topic in Male Students

   I would check some other schools websites. From my experience, acceptance into the nursing program in your freshman year is not the rule. Most schools that I've researched require you to complete a set of prerequisites before applying to the nursin...

3. Just Took The dreaded TEAS test

   ZekeMass replied to Star1278's topic in TEAS

   (Trying not to be critical)... The original poster is attempting to do MUCH better on this test than you. A 90% overall score is in the 99th percentile. This is hard - you can miss about 1-2 questions per section at most. I don't even know what s...

4. Just took the HESI!!

   ZekeMass replied to kellyjo's topic in HESI

   Congrats! I took the TEAS a few weeks back and felt equally relieved. I'm sure the specifics you shared will help a lot of people. :)

5. Those who have taken TEAS V?

   ZekeMass replied to tammy_zeidan09's topic in TEAS

   I had that on my test as well, and had no idea what to do with it (Haven't taken the bio classes yet). Spent the last 5 minutes of the test period analyzing the chart vs the answers and came up with a guess. I either got it right, or it is one of ...

6. Those who have taken TEAS V?

   ZekeMass replied to tammy_zeidan09's topic in TEAS

   It's pretty hard to study for the spelling part - trying to cram 300 commonly misspelled words in a short period of time is just going to burn said time. My advise for that part is to quickly write down the given word before you really have a chanc...

7. New TEAS V Science Section

   ZekeMass replied to nepthea's topic in TEAS

   You'll get a ton of info lurking the existing TEAS threads here. However, I agree that the best way to really know what you're up against is to take one of the practice tests before you start studying random material. I didn't see it written anywh...

8. McGraw Hill vs ATI?! HELP!

   ZekeMass replied to tammy_zeidan09's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I used both books to study. The ATI book's sample tests are more indicative of the test questions, but the McGraw Hill book has more thorough information for science. I would use the McGraw Hill book for the science and math study if needed. Best...

9. How much time did you take to study for the TEAS?

   ZekeMass replied to NellieOlsen's topic in TEAS

   I'm not sure if this will come up in the science or math portions of these tests. It may, because I did see some statistics type questions. When you report your score as a ratio, you should report (number correct)/(total number of questions). Not...

10. New TEAS V Science Section

    ZekeMass replied to nepthea's topic in TEAS

    You got the broken book! I would ask ATI to send you a new one. #6 is A, according to my answers on page 277. #12 is C. In fact, under the reasoning for #12, it mentions that option A is the topic sentence. Good luck!

11. New TEAS V Science Section

    ZekeMass replied to nepthea's topic in TEAS

    Here are the sections I missed from the Science part. Gives you a few points to study: Describe the functions of the digestive system. p129-130 Describe the functions of the respiratory system. p127 Apply Mendrel's laws of genetics and the Punnet...

12. New TEAS V Science Section

    ZekeMass replied to nepthea's topic in TEAS

    I googled around too. I believe the answer in my book is correct, but the information is so new it is not yet completely understood. Research is still being conducted in this area. Don't let it bog you down. You probably won't have a single questi...

13. How did you do it?

    ZekeMass replied to FutureBSN?'s topic in Pre-Nursing

    I believe it is hard to find a job without the BSN degree. I'm applying to two schools - one of which will require me to get my ASN, then bridge to BSN. I do know that others in the program have had job offers by the time they finished their ASN. ...

14. How long did it take you to complete your prerequisites?

    ZekeMass replied to julibyrd's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm also an older returning student (43). I'm only taking one "hard" class at a time, but am carrying a full load otherwise. For instance, this semester I am taking Chem 1, intro to Sociology, and Human Growth and Development. Next semester I take...

15. New TEAS V Science Section

    ZekeMass replied to nepthea's topic in TEAS

    Oh that is strange. I'm on the same page (230). For that pair of questions, the book mysteriously does not give any explanation for the answers, just says 1. True, and 2. An embryo is an animal or plant in the early stages of development after fert...
