I took the TEAS on 1/3/08. It definitely was not as bad as I thought that it would be. Like everyone has been saying definitely brush up on math.

From what I've heard there's not a specific passing score (I'm sure the higher the better)...but it depends more on what your school wants and how competitive the program is.

Hello everyone, I have taken mine in December of 07. The TEAS is not as bad as everyone think it is. It's fairly simple even for those who have been out of school for so long. It's basic, simple questions that you would have from high school. I've studied what I can, not to mention I had finals the very same week. So I scored an 88.8% with a 95th percentile. Hope that gives you a good idea.

Math you have to be quick with your thinking. If you ever played the Brainage game, basically it's as simple as that. There's a coupel conversion problems from like inches to meters or something and someother stuff. One A&P question so don't overwhelm yourself with that subject. My suggestion is to take the online practice assessment exam they have on their website. That will definitely give you a better idea of what you really need to study for. Good luck to those who are still waiting. Honestly, relax and just breathe when you get there. It's so much easier than the SAT and the ACT, that's for sure.

hello, everyone. I will be taking the TEAS test to get into the nursing program on Feb. 1st, so i will let you know how it is. I bought the TEAS study guide, and it's horrible.(from ATI). Some of the questions are worded horribly (confusing), and also some of the subjects they talk about i've never even learned or heard of. I am lucky though because I still have my old books so i can go back to them and study. :bugeyes:

Honestly, I think every school is different. This is the first year that the school I applied to is using TEAS, they use to use NET. I've called and I have asked what they'll look at and what they're looking for, but because it's the first year they are trying to figure it out. So, I'm really not sure, sorry I couldn't help more.

Hi, I just got accepted to the Miami Dade College Nursing program. Do I have to take the TEAS test? What happens if you get a bad score?

I didn't even know what this test was until I was told to register in the ati.com website and then started to read about the test. In my introductory letter it doesn't state anything about the TEAS but it does state that one of the days of orientation an assessment will be given.

Any ideas will be appreciated!
