👉 Next, you can download the free TEAS study planner by clicking HERE. The study planner includes a few pages to include your program’s requirements as well as an area for you to track what subjects to study, your practice test results, and more.

👉 Next, you can move on to the next step in getting started, which is taking a TEAS practice test. You can access your TEAS practice test on the left-hand side of this lesson.

1. There are 3 reasons to take a practice test first and foremost: You want to get a sense of what the test is like. A realistic practice test will demonstrate to you how questions are asked in addition to you getting a feel for what sitting for each section is like. This sets realistic expectations for test day. 
2. A practice test will be able to give you a “starting” point. You can’t start studying and trying to get a higher score if you don’t even know where you’re starting at. This creates a baseline. You want all of your other attempts at practice tests to be higher than your original pre-studying scores. This is a data-driven approach to seeing your score increase. 
3. Lastly, practice tests provide diagnostic reports for each section. For example, these practice tests won’t just say you got a 59% in Science. It will specifically identify how you scored in each sub-topic. For example, 72% on the cardiovascular system, 91% on the reproductive system,14% in States of Matter and 69% in Properties of Matter, and 0% in Acids and Bases. This gives you a road map of what topics to study. 

👉 Once you know where you stand with your scores and what your program requires, now you can start to study. 

Let’s Review:

Step 1. Take a free TEAS practice test. 

Step 2. Review your diagnostic report and scores by each TEAS test section

Step 3. Identify your strengths – subjects within each topic you got a 70% or higher

Step 4. Identify your weaknesses – subjects within each topic you got a 69% or lower

Step 5. Create an effective study schedule where you focus on studying your “weaknesses”. We’ll go over this in detail in the video below.

Step 6: Study and practice each weak topic repeatedly for short study sessions. We recommend studying a subject for 30-45 minutes 2-3 times a week. We’ll go over this in detail in the video below.

Step 7. Retake a TEAS practice test after 2-3 weeks of active studying. 

Step 8: Repeat steps 3-7 until your test scores are where you want them to be.

❗ Remember that this is for you and your future self will thank you for every drop of energy, time, and drive you put behind studying for the TEAS. It’s not going to be the easiest process, but it will be worth it. If you are realistic with yourself and keep in mind what’s at stake, you’re going to surprise yourself in a good way. Always remember, you’re not alone and YOU GOT THIS. 💪
