Hello everyone!
Is anyone aware of any TEAS V prep courses in the Boston area?
I've bought the McGraw-Hill book along with the ATI study manual but I also feel that I might benefit from a course! Any input is welcome :)

You might have better luck in the TEAS forum. I really found that the ATI TEAS manual was the most help. I studied only that and scored a 96%.
Thank! How long did you study for? I'm only worried about math and the chemistry part of the science.

The math is no harder than Algebra I and the science does have some chemistry on it. I would not waste any money on a Teas prep course. The Teas is a pretty basic test and just measures your readiness for nursing school. They want to know what you already know. I did the practice tests in the McGraw Hill book and ATI book. I ended up with a 78 and scored in the advanced category which is what I was scoring on the practice tests. The chemistry that was on there was stuff like balancing equations and such and I did not know how to do that. No amount of studying was going to get me to understand it. I probably needed a chemistry class before I took it. But I took advanced physiology instead and there was more of that on there than chemistry.
