I registered for the TEAS VI and started studying with a TEAS V book that was given to me by my friend in the nursing program. I take the TEAS Nov. 16th and I am almost finished with the TEAS V book. I am now concerned that I will not be adequately prepared because I used the wrong book. I am wondering if I truly will not be prepared for the TEAS because I used the previous book. Because I take the exam in two weeks, I do not want to spend $209 on the full preparation kit through ATI. Also, the head of the nursing department at my school told me that because of my GPA and other aspects, as long as I score a 75, I will automatically be accepted into the program.

Hey! I am applying for my schools nursing program for next semester and required to take the TEAS. My school's requirements are a 3.5 GPA of prerequisites as well as a 75 or above on the TEAS test to get in. If the applicant has taken all of the prerequisites at the same university and fits both of those categories, they are automatically accepted into the nursing program. Seemed like a piece of cake to me! Until I started studying for the TEAS and was brought back to my SATs, which I took 2 years ago before they implicated the new SAT format.I got a 1390 (out of 2400) on the SATs, which was below average with a GPA of 3.9. As you can see, I have a history of sucking at standardized tests and as I have started to study for the TEAS, the anxiety of standardized testing is back. I currently have a 3.6 GPA in college, but I credit that to mere studying. I guess my question is, how worried should I be about the TEAS when I am not good at standardized testing to begin with? How hard is it really to score a 75?
