Studying for the TEAs Test

Published

I'm taking the TEAs test in a few days and I'm starting to feel nervous. I gave myself a month to study but I'm starting to feel like that wasn't enough time. I'm good with the reading and english sections. The math and the science sections have me a little worried. I plan on retaking the TEAs in September which gives me a couple months to study. Since its summer break I do want to relax and not worry about school as much but I also want to do well on this exam if I retake in September. I did purchase the study manual and the 2 practice assessments on the ati testing website.

I would go through the study manual, read and do the practice questions at the end of each section. But I felt like it wasn't enough.

When I took my science classes in college, I studied pretty much every day for hours and pass the class with a B or C. I did okay in my math courses. I did very well in my english classes. When I studied for the science classes in college I would sometimes make flashcards and charts. I also would rewrite my notes. I do have trouble focusing and staying still which sometimes interferes with my studying. Sometimes sitting down and reading can be difficult for me.

For people who recently took the test and passed with a good score:

- How much time did you give your self to studying before you took the test?

- Did you study every day? How many hours a day did you study? How many times a week did you study?

- Do you have any tips on how to study?

- I also heard about a book called Secrets of the TEAs V Exam that you can buy at Barnes & Noble or Amazon. Has anyone bought this book before? If so, did it help? I read a lot of good reviews about this book.

- Any websites that would help with studying too?

Thank you very much to anyone who responds to this post. I really appreciate it!

Thank you so much!

Hi! Good luck!

I recently took the test and passed! I studied for about two weeks, a few hours a day. I did buy the practice book and went through it. It was very similar test questions to the practice test but the actual test was harder. Don't panic!
