I am planning on taking the TEAS in march during spring break...And I am kind of lost. I don't know which manual I should buy. I heard that it is not as hard as it was since they took off the science portion.
I think I would order the book from the ATI website but not sure(so many book to buy this is ridiculous). I still need to evaluate my high school diploma! But I have apply for fall 2010!!!!
I do not live near the mec campus so I won't be able to do study groups and I think I won't have time to do so.
Yes....But to be honest the format of the test is a bit ridiculous I never took a test like this in my whole life I really prefer test on paper at list you have the whole thing in front of you!!!!!!I don't know what
I should do next. I am beyond frustrated and I have so much to do on the side that I don't thing I will have the time to spare for studying some more....
I can understand your faustration Jess,! I have Nas 162 to deal with myself and its driving me nuts! All i can do now is to study and pray. To me, the test was pretty easy but it envolves a lot of critical thinking and the fact that you can't use a calculator makes it more difficult.
Back in 2005 I failed the science portion on the teas--dont think they have science on it now---And I had to do the whole TEAS test over. At 1 time if I failed just 1 section, you just had to do that section over. On my rewrite, lets just say majority of the questions looked very familiar!! Not sure if thats the case everytime!!
If one does the ONLINE nursing course, they got to do most of the exams at home (dont get me started on how unfair that is) and you do it on the computer and it shows 1 question at a time
Same thing with NCLEX, done on the computer, 1 question at a time, and one cant go backwards.
I bought a book to study for the TEAS, I'm sure you can find it online or at the MEC bookstore. As I recall i didnt find it that useful,but I have read others did find it helpful!
"Critical Thinking" you will hear that term a zillion times throughout ur nursing career,lol
Nope, there is no science on the NVCC TEAS exam. I read over the study guide a cople of times and scored very well on all of the sections taken. I did take the TEAS for another school for their BSN program which did include the science portion. The science section was pretty hard and the study guide did not help prepare for that section. :)
