Hi everyone!
Newbie here, so don't mind me. I was recommended this site by a colleague. So my big question is...
Has anyone taken the TEAS test? What should I expect? I'm really nervous about the Math part, first of all cuz I'm not the best in Math and secondly, because it's been forever since I've had an ACT test kind of format! 300 spots are open, and they're only taking 88 - 100, I'm super nervous.. it's in 2 weeks. ANY HELP WOULD BE SOOO APPRECIATED! Thanks!
I've already been looking at a site that has free practices... I'm already worried! =(

relax! the teas test isn't as hard as you think, all you have to do is study and refresh your mind! the test is broken down into sections and each section is timed.(don't remember how long though) i think that the overall time it took was about 3hrs. (which was the hardest part for me) the general subjects of the test are: math, reading/writting, science, english. here are a few websites that will help you out:

-a practice test
-a study guide
-all free
www.atitesting.org
-you will have to spend $ for these materials
-but they have really good study tools!
hope this helps...and good luck!!! let me know how it goes

Some say it's hard, some say it's easy. It all depends on what you know. You should do a search for "Teas" and you'll come up with a ton of information that will give you what to expect on the test. I am taking it in November. I've been out of school for quite a while, but I need a 90 on the test to get accepted into my program. (only because I need so many points, we only have to score like 40 in each category to pass) I am studying like crazy to get the 90.

I found the math on the testpreview website to be harder than on the actual TEAS, so don't let it scare you!

Thanks for posting that website. I have to take the TEAS test early next year as well and this will be helpful :)

Thanks for the info!! A school I'm seriously considering requires the TEAS test, so I'm a bit worried. I hear they ask questions about spelling too and :uhoh21: .... I'm not the best speller lol. Good luck to everyone with the test!
