TEAS or NET Study Guide Info

Hi!

I cannot recommend the study guide (online) provided by ATI Testing for the NET test highly enough. I bought it (like $20 or something, completely internet based) and can vouche for the fact that it's almost IDENTICAL to the exam itself. I bought it the night before the exam and completed the entire practice test. It was the ONLY thing I used to study for the NET and I got in the 98th percentile the first time.

Bluechick-Did you take the NET or TEAS? So the ATI Practiced worked for the NET too? That I wasn't sure of. I am taking the TEAS since we are going to Cali now, if we were still going to GA I would have to take the NET for GA.

I took the NET. Maybe it wasn't ATI testing....

Whatever the company is that issues the NET. That's the site I got the online practice test from---FOR THE NET.

I also took the TEAS. Didn't bother studying. I hardly find it possible to study for the science section of the TEAS, which, in my opinion, is the hardest part. The TEAS isn't too bad. It's way harder than the NET, though. The English and Math sections are just common sense. But the science portion is a real kicker. We had questions about GEOLOGY on ours (clouds, mountains, etc.). Crazy.

Wow!! Geology? I wouldn't have guessed that. My book hasn't arrived yet, but I have been using learnatest.com for the time being. I guess that does make since b/c it says it covers Natural Sciences...I just wouldn't have guessed. Thanks for the info...I can prepare now....

hi guys, i just posted a message last night about the teas test study guide, which i bought and have been going over. i take the teas in aug. i cant seem to find anyone who has taken the test after purchasing the study guide to see if it really helped. since it is the same company that puts out the teas test , it seems like it should help. anymore info would be greatly appreciated.

I am having palpitations just thinking of taking the TEAS-knowing that my admission is riding on this test.

I went to my local library and picked up a 2008 Peterson's nursing school and allied heath exam. I believe this book would cover both the C-NET and TEAS-which I have to take both for two different schools.

The info in the book is pretty heavy. I am told that the TEAS and C-NET are nothing like what the booklet lets on.

I am going to study as hard as I possibly can just to be on the safe side. But again take a look at the Barron book.

Wow, whatever you do, please, I cannot stress this enough, the TEAS is setup the same way as your Study Manual and Online Practice test, I took the test yesterday, Sept.3, wow what a breeze. Oh my gosh, I nailed this test, thanks to the ATI Study Manual and Online Practice test, that is all you need. Believe me, I took the test 2 years ago and failed but this time around, I was in the high percentage marking. Good luck!

I am going to try this. I have the Kaplan nursing entrance exam book and read on here that it would be over studying (bad thing). I will buy the online ATI practice test tonight and see if the Teas test is really similar to what you say. I also read the study manual is much harder than the actual test. I will write back.

I also suggest the ATI study manual. I also took the TEAS a few weeks ago. I had a huge study book and it was quite overwhelming. The exam is created by ATI, so I feel that their study manual is more accurate and hopefully less overwhelming. The Reading section was a breeze. I would say to focus on Math and Science. Even though there not extremely difficult, if you have been out of highschool for a while then you most certainly need a refresher. GOOD LUCK

How did you do on the teas exam?

I think this post will help a lot of crammers like me.

For one thing, the Kaplan nursing entrance exam study book will be returned. I probably got about less than 10% help from the book and it didn't really apply to the Teas test.

I paid for the online test $32 bucks and just used the question styles and studied it off from there. I didn't buy the book because it will not get to my door on time, so i can't say if it helped or not.

I feel the practice online test was a big help! I was able to see the way they structured the actual exam.

I can go on and on about what was on the test but I am too tired to write that on here but will go over the basics and give you some stuff I feel you should know.

1. Know your conversion units (MATH) 1 kg=2.22lbs, 1000mg=g such things like that and plug that in. I studied this from the practice test and it was on the test.

2. True, I read the science part was difficult. I pretty much threw out my 1.5 yrs of my science preqs out the window on this section. I was pretty upset because I have a great preq science gpa but what was on the teas test was not I learned or that they made it more complicated by wording it different. I felt the science part had more physics, physical science, zoology stuff....(know the tectonic plates, different kinds of rock formations, gravity, velocity, force, wavelengths, sound, chem bonds*, yeah I know huh?) The only Anatomy question was a mouth is to ** a word i don't know*** as to A, B , C or D! I felt this was my weakest area on the test even though I do really well in science courses.

3. Reading was easy. Don't really need to study on this part but just know that you understand the paragraph and follow instructions.

4. Math- I am pretty much good at math, so this section was fun. I was running out of time. Know what is a mode, median, know your algebra, adding/sub/mult/div fractions, . Easiest part was balancing check books, basic arithmetic, and reading graphs. Know ratios, percentages....just review the basics up to algebra. There was one geometry question.

5. English- I have to admit. I suck at this part. It wasn't that hard but I felt I needed to review more. You basically need to know the meaning of the word within the sentence, punctuation, grammar, sentence structures....

This is all i can think for now. I'm tired.

I would like to check out the API teas book..I wonder if they have reviews on there. The practiced test helped me but I didn't have enough time to go over my mistakes on there. So pace yourself. Study off the online practice test and review what you need to review.

Hi, eliymo, thanks for this post. This is very helpful. I remember some of this showed up on my tests. However, i failed the tests. I like the maths, it was simple, but no time, i did not finish. english, reading & science was difficult. I studied hard for the test. The book from teas is helpful for the maths, maybe for the english and reading, definatly not for science. English is my second lang. So, i struggle in this area and did not finish. I was not happy with the science questions, because it did not ask question, on A&P, i think only 2 questions. I pass all my class exams with good grades. But my teas score is too low, im embrass to say this. I have another chance to retake it on nov.12th, i hope i pass. Congratulations for passing the TEAS Exam!
