Question for those who have takes the TEAS

Hello Erika, I took the TEAS back in Feb. Overall, it wasn't bad. The science was fairly easy, mainly just reading graphs. I didn't think reading or English was that big a deal either. The main issue was my school did not allow us to use calculators on the math portion, only scratch paper. If your school has a similar rule, you might want to make sure you remember how to do basic math equations (ie multiply numbers with several digits together). There is a study on the market for it, published by ATI. It's called the Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) Study Manual. You might check with your school or public library to see if they have it. WARNING: the science section of the review book was harder than the actual test. Good luck! :)

I took the TEAS late last year. It wasn't as hard as it was long. Just make sure you get plenty of rest and look up some info online or go through one of the study guides you can purchase from the book store. You will probably use every bit of your time working out the math problems, but remember to recheck if you have time left on any section. Also, they do not take off for wrong answers so if you are about to run out of time, just guess. It won't hurt anything. Stay calm and focused. I thought the SATs were harder personally but everyone is different. For the English section, I would write out the sentences after plugging in my grammar answer after I was all done to make sure it sounded ok to me. The science portion seemed to be more physics. It was really more of what makes sense. Do study what it says in the guide though and you will do fine. I know I was dying to know what others made after I had taken mine. I took it twice and got an 89.4 each time (wierd, huh?). It was still in the 99th percentile so not so bad if I say so myself. Most of the people I know made between 78 and 90 on it. I hope the best for you :)

thanks guys for your responses! i will definitely purchase the study guide from my bookstore.
