Very discouraged don't think I passed TEAS

Published

I just got back from taking the TEAS test and I think I totally bombed the math and possibly Science portion. I know I did good with the Reading and English

I studied for the math, and when I took the test NONE of what was in the study guide was reflective of what was going to be on the test. There was hardly any percentage problems probably 1 or 2 and the rest were just things that I had not studied for at all with some graphs and stuff asking what the unshaded areas meant. No algebra at all.

Good thing I had memorized what milo, a quart, gallon etc meant from tips on this forum or else I would have gotten those few problems wrong.

As for the Science I just used my best judgement on it. Even if I studied Science I still don't think it would have helped because it's such a broad subject. You'd have to just so happen to be really good in Science to get a good score on that part

There is really no room for any weakness that's for sure. The worst part is that only 3 people out of the program are passing the TEAS test, while the majority of the students are failing it left and right. and these are very intelligent people, some of them even have degrees but decided to go into nursing because the current field they are in is starting to dry out.

I'm very discouraged, because I heard we can only take it one time. (My counselor told me twice). I am scared of what my future is going to be like if I cannot get into a nursing program. I am praying that I did better than I thought

I felt that way when I took the HESI and I ended up doing very well. Its understandable to be stressed but don't beat yourself up. When do you get the results?

I get the results on Monday.

I don't think I'll get in, out of all the student who take the TEAS only 3 are passing and gaining entrance in nursing school.
