What study guide would you recommend? Which should I avoid?

Published

Hey everyone! :) The title basically sums it all up and I'm sure this question has been posted 100s of times before. I am about to finish the spring semester and will have a small break until my final semester starts June 9th. I wanted to take that time to start studying for the TEAs V exam but found myself totally overwhelmed by all the different books out there. I've seen that those who bought study guides, bought more than one.

Ones I'm considering purchasing:

1) VERSION V - ATI TEST OF ESSENTIAL ACADEMIC SKILLS (TEAS V) STUDY MANUAL

2) Secrets of the TEAS Exam: Study Guide Your Key to Exam Success

Has anyone used these and how would you rate them? Did they help you a lot? Any other books you would highly reccomend? I read that the ATI book was good but didn't go into depth in the science section. Well any suggestions I would gladly appreciate. Thanks and take care ya'll!

I only used the ATI study manual but I would definitely recommend it. Everything on the real test is covered by the manual in one way or another. Because the manual is made by the company that makes the test, it is closest to the real thing. I would also recommend buying one (or both, if you have the money) of the practice tests from them. The format and style of the questions on the practice tests are almost exactly like the TEAS, so it will help you get prepared for that mindset. I found test A to be slightly harder than the real exam and test B to be slightly easier, but many people have had different experiences.

I take the teas thus month. I have been studying and I took the online practice A and didn't do so well. I have 2 weeks left to keep studying. My spring semester just ended so I have a lot more time. The secrets of the teas science questions are really repetitive and too simple that's one thing I do not like about it. I need a 78 overall on the test
