TEAS V Math

Published

Hello everybody! I will be taking the TEAS V in September. I know there's tons of post on here about the teas test because I've read tons of post, but I never saw much about what i'm about to ask. My question is do you all really think that if I study my teas manual like I should that I'll be able to score at least a 50% or above on the math section? That's one of the requirements for the school I'm applying to. I'm just worried because math has never been my subject. I would really appreciate feedback from other people. I've already purchased the TEAS V study manual, it seems like it's going to be very helpful!

Why don't you take a look at the Teas thread at the top of the page called How I Studied for the TEAS 5.

Looks like some good study tips.

Good luck!

For the math section you need to be able to add and subtract decimals, simplify fractions, know the pathagorean therum, and think critically to solve word problems. The math thread in the current student nurses section (just under this section..under student tab) has a lot of help with math and general knowledge math concepts.

Hope this helps

No problem! I didn't study at all (but I had taken Math thru College PreCalculus) and I scored like 80% on the math section.

I hope you do well and good luck in your nursing endeavors

That's an AWESOME score! All my friends keep telling me that have taken the test already to just study the book & buy one of the practice test from ATI & I should be fine. I'm sure I can do it! 50% sounds like a basic score, so I know I can score that or higher in the math section!

Math and language are very easy.I solved math questions in almost half time. English took a lot of time since it has some math questions and you have to look for figures from a chart and solve as directions given.

I just took the test yesterday, so it is fresh on the brain. The math section was the easiest out of the 4 sections. I am not a math wiz, but i scored a 90. It was the quickest section too. There were a TON of fractions, so make sure you can do all operations with those.
