Hi everyone!! I just took the teas finally and it was way easier then I thought it was. I completely stressed out over the science portion thinking it would be very hard and it was but even me who has a very BIG weakness in science was able to do well with some brush ups. I read on here about how this person took physics in college or has done the chemistry as a pre req, but I went to an accelarated program and didn't need to do these. I was concerned as I felt the test was made for the students who have taken those classes, but I assure you all it was not. The basics? The math is difficult, and I am a straight a math student even in freshem college, so having difficulty shocked me. The science is also hard, but if you spend the time to study, you will be fine, the reading section seemed unlike the study booklet, but it was not hard. It had half the section of words and what they mean, and half stories and fix the grammar like in the book though. The english section was what i did the best at and i found easy. If you find these questions in the study book easy you will be fine. Times? I heard many times how hard it is to get done in time and was surprised i was the second one done. In the math section if you daydream, time will run out. Use the test taking rules don't change an answer unless you are positive, drink a cup of coffee before you go as studies show it helps, and stay on task. If i did this well as old as i am you will be fine. Good luck to you all.

just wanting to put this out there...I went in at the end of December to take the test and they changed the ati site somehow and the test was cancelled. It is a possibility that they also changed the test a bit i guess...just letting everyone know. I am also concerned about the science portion as i am a straight a student with the exception of science. I did take some college classes, but none were science and haven't had a science class since high school. I am trying to understand the study guide buy to no avail...if its purpose was to make us feel stupid, they have acheived it with me lol. I wish all of us taking the test a lot of luck, and am sure if we want it bad enough we will get there.

Ok so i have been searching for info on the teas test for a few weeks now and have read a lot in here on it but can't seem to get anything on the science portion of this exam. I do very well in all reading, english, and math. have you ever seen a student who has straight a's in everything then bombs in one area? Well that is me. I just don't get science and am extremely worried. I passed science by the skin of my teeth in high school, and let me tell you i worked hard to do it. So I am wondering if anyone out there has taken the teas, and could tell me what exactly is the science portion on. I have the book, and have tried to study it but the level seems kind of high to me. I am working on the body systems now, and have the test this thursday eeeeeeek!!!
