TEAS in October, help?

Published

Hi everyone, I'm gonna try to take the TEAS this October, and I took my last prereq in 2019, I then had to wait for nursing school cause of the pandemic, and I had to work full time so I didn't think about the TEAS at all. I am now spiraling because I have looked up a lot of stuff on the TEAS and feel super overwhelmed. I bought the MOMETRIX book that comes highly recommended, and I wanted to start studying next week but I don't know where to start. For anyone who has been in a similar situation, how did you start studying? What did you do to crash course back into science? English and Math I am less scared of because it's stuff I can study that has concrete answer, but science is a lot more overwhelming to think about. I also have the added pressure of needing at least an 85% on it overall. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!

Hi,

I also brought the Mometrix book and the online TEAS course recently I find this helpful I only started studying a month ago. Planning on taking the TEAS in September. It's a little overwhelming but I am taking it one day at a time I am almost with the reading section. I plan on spending a considerable amount of time on science and math. Overall, If you brought the mometrix book I would also buy the Online study course as it guides you through every section of the test with videos and a quiz after every section I believe they are offering a discount currently so if you are looking for a supplemental resource this will help

Best of luck studying

@jondayko1 Which ATI package did you buy? I was gonna get the basic package with the 2 practice tests and the manual.

I haven't brought any ATI materials directly from the testing company. I only have mometrix products as of right now. I know on the ATI website they have a variety of prep options for first-time test takers.

Sorry, this is not of more help let me know how these products work out for you!

Definitely buy the ATI practice tests B and C! They are almost exactly the same as the real TEAS and will help prep you more than anything else. B is especially representative of how hard and what kinds of questions/wording will be on the exam. I bought all the smart prep material too, which is expensive, but it paid off because I got a 96 on the exam.

Hey,

Glad to hear you did well on the exam are the practice test separate or is all in the same book

The practice tests are separate unfortunately for our wallets! If you can only get one, get practice test B. It is the same level of difficulty as the real TEAS and was spot on. I got a 95.3 on that, which is similar to my real score...

Oh hey, I wanted to let you know that I found this quizlet, which covers all of the practice science questions that are asked on the ATI practice tests B and C, so you don't necessarily have to buy anything! https://quizlet.com/516797483/TEAS-science-practice-test-flash-cards/

Some lovely soul took the time to make a quizlet of them!
