TEAS and out of touch!!!!

"And am I in a panic for nothing???"

Yes!!!!

Seriously....it's not that bad. I was freaking out about that test until I took it. I've been out of high school and hadn't seen that material in close to 15 years. If you do that questions in the study guide, and look in the back and read why the answers or right or wrong, you'll be fine.

Just give yourself plenty of time to study. When you go in to take your test, get a good nights sleep, eat a good breakfast and don't forget to breathe. You'll do great!

Just study the manual and you will do just fine. I'm an older student too and took the TEAS last week. I was really nervous and couldn't fall asleep the night before the test. I studied the manual, especially the math and science and it totally prepared me for the test. I also took the online practice exam and it was really helpful. It's only 100 questions but is set up exactly like the real test. Anyway, I passed with flying colors just by studying the manual. I had to review all the algebra, geometry, fractions and percentages. I stressed way to much and found the test to be quite easy.

As previous poster mentioned - work with the ATI study guide, and you're golden. The test is just like the guide. There are no suprises or tricks to the exam. Good luck!

I too was freaking out about the test until I took it. The program I am applying for is points-based, so I really needed to score WELL and not just pass. Since I haven't had any math in years, I went to local Best Buy and bought a Math software to brush up my algebra. I also was glued to the study guide for days leading up to the test. I ended up scoring super high and am thankful that I don't even have to think about it anymore. If you feel you need it, I recommend it. PM me if you want to know which math software I used. Good luck!!!

I am going to take the test on Friday. I am not as nervous as I was. Thanks to all who replied!

Does the study guide include a review of the science questions? Math software... Great Idea!!!

Hurray I passed my test!!!!! The science section is very general. I didn't score as well as I would have liked to on that portion of the test. But considering I have been out of school for 16 years, I didn't do horrible. The study guide was great for every part of the test.
