Teas Test Skills Tips Please

Published

HI, I am really nervous about the Teas Test. Can you share what will you do different? I am not good in Math. How is the structure in the sciences. I am also nervous about that. If you have done the Teas in 2009, any tips are welcome. Wish me luck ! I will be doing the test on Dec 17th 2009.

Specializes in Emergency Nursing.
I've heard its like the ged test is it really?

It is a bit like the GED inasmuch as it is a general high school knowledge test. I definitely got the sense that it is weighted more on science and math though, which makes sense since it's a test for prospective nurses.

Hello All.. I am taking the TEAS test in 2wks and very, very nervous.. :uhoh3: I've read most of the replies and found them to be very helpful. In fact they actually eased my mind about the whole test.. Just want to say thank you to all for the useful info...

hi asbn 2010 nyu i was wondering if you can send me a copy of your study guides for teas nursing exam

Thanks for all the tips in this website, I pass the TEAS exam. TIPS: make sure to be aware of the time. The time, number of questions left, and number of pages left can be seen on top of the page during the exam. A friend of mine did not pass the exam because she did not finish the math portion. Goodluck

I've been lurking around these boards for about 3 weeks. There's a lot of great advice around. I passed the TEAS with an 88 yesterday! Thanks, allnurses!

Well i just took the TEAS 3.0/4.0 this morning. Dont have my score yet. The reading was a breeze. The math was tricky..science was very hard..and finally the english was basic punctuation and spelling,and word meaning. The time went really fast on the math! Got nervious!! I did study the ati book and bought the online practice test..all worth it! one of the science ?s was the same as the practice test.

Was the math like the ATI 3.0 manual which doesn't have any statistics? Was there any statistics on the TEAS?

Im taking it very soon.

Thanks!!

I am taking the Teas 2morrow and i am so nervous , i was at ivytech and i took my pre reqs, they decided to add another math class to the nursing pre-reqs and the classes are full which will make me sit out a semester . I have decided that insted of wasting another year on ivy -tech BS list of dummies spending money , i will apply to Medtech who is NLN accredited for LPN and working on the RN . I am taking the TEAS at 9am on 8/11/10 and i have only had 3 days to study. mostly because the math 118_ i got a "B" at ivytech , english 111 "a", and i passed the compass test so i had no reading classes. I am more concerned about the science portion , just because the high schol I attended barley covered it. I got the ATI "teas test stufy guide " from the library, :clown:and and seeing the book i feel comfortable with math , english and reading at an all time high :idea:, but as far as the science :confused:..........any suggestins o what to go over , although in the 3 days of studying i could atleast be a science tutor ..not!

betakurt do you suggest anything particular to study for as far as the science portion of the teas v?

I wish I could...the content was all over the place. Understand how to read charts and graphs. There was some biology, chemistry, geology. I realize this is not much help, but I don't remember the specifics much, b/c it seemed so random.

What study guide did you use? I have the purple ATI one, version 3.0?
