TEAS test

Daytonite, BSN, RN · Dec 9, 2007

the science section covers science reasoning, science knowledge, biology, chemistry, anatomy and physiology, basic physical principles and general science.

here are weblinks to some of these subjects if you need help with some of the subject areas. i don't have links for basic physics.

Hi Everyone,
I just received my letter today and I found out that I have to take the TEAS on friday morning. I am not worried about the english or math section, but I am worried about the science section. Can anybody give me an idea of what to start studying? I just bought the study guide and it should arrive on Tuesday, but I feel I need to start now. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Lori

The science covers things like earth science,physics,chemistry general science and genetics. The study guide will be your salvation, there really isn't much micro or AP at all.

One more thing on the math.

The math is pretty basic, however, they do not let you use a calculator and many of the problems require several steps with long addition, subtraction problems. So be sure you are quick on all your facts, be able to do the math at a good speed. Many people who took the test with me timed out during the math, I barely finished and had a good panic over that section because it takes a lot longer then the time given.

Review the chemical basis of life in your ANP book. That helped me on many questions.

Hey I took mine this past Sunday. I panic about the science part too, but honestly, the science section on the exam itself is very basic. I remember out of the whole science section I had one A&P question with a diagram. The study guide will help prepare you, I think somewhat a little over prepare you. But if you can get everything down in the booklet or even touch base on it, you'll do just fine. The math is my best subject, so I was done with half the time, but they give you like one and half minute per problem so you have to be quick with the calculations. My suggestion would be to study from the manual and take all the practice test that's in there. When you're done, I really suggest you to take the online assessment test. It will really give you an idea of how the exam is and you will know what you really need to prepare for, because if gives you the score after you're done with the exam. Best of luck.
