TEAS and HESI study tips

[tshigeru, CNA]

Has anybody took the TEAS or HESI? both? Any advice and input is really appreciated! I have to take both because some programs I am looking into require either the HESI or TEAS.

For those who took the HESI, what did you use to study? Is scoring a 75% in each section difficult?

I didn't take the HESI, only the TEAS. I honestly didn't do much to study because I was in an intense 5 week long A&P class. From the practice tests I did take, I knew science was by far my lowest, so I focused on making sure I was solid on my A&P. Other than that, I got a study book for like 20 bucks on Amazon and reviewed a little bit of math and English from that. The only thing I wish I would have done more of is English. I underestimated what the English would be and that was actually my lowest section overall. The best advice I can give you is to go through a practice test and then use a study book to improve your weak spots.
