UTMB Spring 2012

Nah, I don't mind. My overall GPA is 3.92 and I scored a 90% on the TEAS. When I took the online practice test the night before I scored 74% though so that made me super nervous! The test was honestly not that bad though. The math section was very easy so I woud focus on the science when you are studying. My worst section was reading and best was science and math, which was different then what I would have expected, especially since I have not taken A&P II and micro yet!!

Those are great scores.

Thank you :) I studied really hard for the TEAS, even going so far as reading through my chemistry text and A&P I notes in addition to the study guide. As for my GPA, my boyfriend had to teach me how to have a life outside of my school work!! Lol

Did they let you use a calculator that is embedded in the test?

No calculator at all for the TEAS V! Only pencil and scratch paper...

Kelly_Michelle · May 24, 2011

No calculators are allowed, only scratch paper

CHUNKY_MUNKEY · May 24, 2011

Thats what I thought. I'm glad I've been studying without using one at all.

I was freaking out about that until I did the practice test in the back of the book...only missed 2 on it so I think I am good in the math dept..... Am a little worried about the reading section. I am having a hard time getting the"Topic, Details, Theme, Main Idea" questions correct! Hopefully their aren't many. Also, in the grammar I am struggling with subjest verb agreement and a little with simple sentence stuff, but I am getting better at those.

The Science, I figure all I can do is read whats in the book and hope it jogs my memory a little before tomorrow. I haven't taken CHEM in about 7 years and I didnt do well in it then!....so Im rusty. From what I am hearing and reading..there is a lot of Chem on it, but I am crossing my fingers there isn't.

All in all I feel pretty prepared. Is the format of the test done in sections? Reading, Grammar, Math and Science...are they broken down to be able to chose whcih I want to work on first? and will it show my individual score for each section right after I am done with that section? or does it wait until you are completely done to show scores?

It's done in sections and you don't get to choose what you what to tackle first. The scores were available that same day after I logged on to he ati website when I got home.

rocket_ryder · May 24, 2011

Oh I thought the scores were givent o you while you were at the testing center... I have to wait until I get home to find out?

Kelly_Michelle · May 24, 2011

Well the testing center sucks. After you are done you get one of the assistants and all they say is okay your done you can leave. They didn't tell me anything about my test scores but it's available right away. Just sign on to the website and you will see it. That's how it was for me.
