How hard is the TEAST test?

It's kind of like SAT test. It has a little bit of everything. i.e., English grammar, reading, math, physic, anatomy, physiology, chemistry, earth science, biology. Total of 170 questions and 76% or higher to be considered passing. you can order a study guide from Ati testing website for about 40 bucks.

I graduated from college nine years ago. Took the TEAS Friday, Jan.9th. The test was a breeze. I studied for two weeks using the ATI TEAS Guide and a little of the Kaplan Nursing School Entrance Exam. Kaplan was a little more difficult. Time yourself with every test you take in ATI or both books. Give yourself a minute per question. If you can complete the test in a timely matter you will do well. Time seems to pass faster during the math section. It is due to some of the questions being so wordy (is that a word). I will not know my scores until Monday or Tuesday. I took the pencil/paper exam at Kennesaw State University in GA. Good Luck to everyone!!!
Thank you for the reply. I'm very freking out about this test. I have a 3.8 GPA but for sure I don't like to take very long test.
You will do well. The ATI TEASE Guide was harder than the actual test. Time yourself with everything. Know metric units, converting measurements (cups to quarts to gallon, etc.), inequalities, periodic table, and basic physics. Any questions, do not be afraid to ask. The test seem to be a high school graduation exam. Good luck!

I studied from all of the nursing entrance exams books at the library. Mostly the math. I was freaking out about it because its so hard to know what to study and what questions you will get but I did fine. I got an 88.2%. All of the accepted RN students that I took it with (30 including me) all passed. As long as you study you should be fine. Good luck!
Below is a very resourceful site for TEAS and many other exams. Hopefully it helps you!
