  1. Math Section: TEAS

    LoyalWeim replied to Jessica92's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I found the math to be quite easy but it seems that some struggle with the limited time aspect of the exam. Have you timed yourself doing the math section of a sample test? I also used Khan's...

  3. Science Section TEAS V

    LoyalWeim replied to Jessica92's topic in TEAS Exam Help

  6. Need to retake Teas

    LoyalWeim replied to sweet101's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I found the ATI online tests to be significantly more difficult than the study manual's practice tests so do not be alarmed or discouraged if you score worse especially on the science section. Here...

  9. TEAS study tools

    LoyalWeim replied to allycat707's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    You are essentially providing advice to other students on this one and so no... I will not simply let it go. You are providing an opinion that could sway others to not use the ATI study manual and...

    You didn't even do the practice exams, and yet you feel confident in your opionion that the ATI study manual is a waste? You mentioned in another thread that you have failed it twice... are you *sure*...

  12. What's Your Strategy for taking on the TEAs?

    LoyalWeim replied to chernandez3841's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    This is my opinion, but most that feel that the ATI Study Manual was insufficient compared to the real exam simply did not learn all the material in the manual. Seriously, I read so many that take...

  13. TEAS study tools

    LoyalWeim replied to allycat707's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    "The teas book from ati is a waste. The science is nothing like the book." This is not true. I studied the science extensively and found that the ATI Study manual does in fact cover pretty much...

    LoyalWeim replied to jadasimons's topic in Texas Nursing

    Tip for doing percentages quicker: Pp. 304 of the ATI manual, #3. For me, I look to see if the problem can be easily solved just by thinking through it. The way I do this is I can see easily that...

    LoyalWeim replied to jadasimons's topic in Texas Nursing

    Tip for spending less time on polynomial type questions: Simplify the expression: (x-5)(2x+1) A. 2x^2 - 5 B. -9x - 5 C. 2x^2 - 9x - 5 D. 2x^2 + 11x - 5 Immediately, I can see by just observation...

    LoyalWeim replied to jadasimons's topic in Texas Nursing

    kvega, I met with the advisor this morning. For the ABSN program, we take those classes after acceptance which I believe would be Jan 2015. The official program starts May 2015 so these pre-reqs are...

  19. New Nurse Mistakes

    LoyalWeim replied to Mabesma's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Ashley, You didn't "ruffle anyone's feathers"... Nobody is attacking you. You are not understanding that GrnTea is actually trying to help. Perhaps it came off a bit rough, but nevertheless what she...

  20. UT Tyler nursing spring

    LoyalWeim replied to jadasimons's topic in Texas Nursing

    Are you doing the Traditional, BSN or the acclerated route? Because the due date for accelerated is September 15th so I do not think that they have accepted anyone yet for this program. I am...

  21. UT Tyler nursing spring

    LoyalWeim replied to jadasimons's topic in Texas Nursing

    Briana, This must be a difference between the traditional and accelerated nursing tracks because I received an email that we must be accepted to the program before receiving the permission code for...

  23. How many of you guys studied the TEAS this way

    LoyalWeim replied to Mchs4735's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Dorkypanda, Don't feel bad about scoring in the 60's. I scored a few 60's in the science section during practice but did very well on the science on exam day. For me, the key is to hammer those that...

  24. Are student loans haunting you?

    LoyalWeim replied to Joe V's topic in Nurses Rock

    For the most part, I totally agree with you Brandi. But one of the big problems with student loans is that there is no collateral for the bank. They cannot repo your degree. This is the root of the...

  25. Are student loans haunting you?

    LoyalWeim replied to Joe V's topic in Nurses Rock

    Loans are given out so readily nowadays. The reality is that this raises the tuition prices year after year. It ends up costing students a much larger amount (I believe costs increase about 6%...
