I just took the TEAS test a week or so ago and the HESI about 8-9 months ago. TEAS was more science than HESI. Did have some physics, biology, A&P, Chemistry, etc. I did well on the HESI (@95% overall) and did not think I did as well on TEAS, but to my surprise I did quite well with 2 hours prep. It was enough to be accepted to South University BSN program 21 months. Don't worry so much...
