TEAS 6

Published

Took the TEAS 6 today. I have taken version 5 and I found that the 6 was a lot easier. The math is a lot simpler because of the calculator I did a lot better with that than what I did the last test. Reading is very easy as well. What other people mentioned is that the new version was heavy in A&P and it was however if you study with the ati resource manual it tells you exactly what you need to know and the practice tests in the back are very similar to what is on the actual exam. I actually recognized some of the questions from practice exam on the test.

Well everyone is different but in my opinion the TEAS VI is more complicated than the older version, Teas V. The only section to me that was simpler was the Math section and Science section.

The Math section although you have the option of using a calculator the problems they give you, you want actually require a calculator like they were for the version V. I had less word problems (two-step) & less equations and more metric conversions, probability, percents.

As far as Science section is a lot simpler, since its main focus is on A&P majority of my questions were A&P! I had one problem for balancing Chemical Equations, maybe a few on scientific reason, & one or two were about prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Moral of my point is know your basics from A&P! (1&2)

Reading section was more complex because all questions required reading a long passage! 🙄 Unlike Version V! Know your definitions and examples of appendix, glossary, table of contex & etc (frontwards & backwards) I know I thought it was simple and I would remember but it's more to it.

English wasn't so bad pretty much the same as the V! Sorry I can't remember exactly what kind of problems besides punctuation, and vocabulary!

So I have a question.. do you know what it means to score in the 45th percentile... like what score on the test would I have to get in order to be in the 45th.

The national mean for teas vi right now is 65.4% ... not sure of an exact score but I'm guessing around 70% and above would be 45 perecentile.
