Course Description: The TEAS Exam Preparation Course is designed to help students effectively prepare for all four sections of the TEAS Exam: Reading, Mathematics, Science, and English & Language Usage. Throughout the course, students will become familiar with the structure and content of the exam, strengthen their critical thinking skills, and learn strategies to manage test-related anxiety. While the course aims to cover most topics found in the official study manual, it’s important to note that the exact questions on the TEAS Exam are computer-generated and cannot be predicted.

The primary objective of this course is to equip students with the tools and confidence needed to achieve high scores on the TEAS Exam. This includes practicing proven test-taking strategies, developing a focused and positive mindset, and reviewing key academic concepts across all subject areas. Students are encouraged to supplement classroom instruction with independent study to maximize their performance and readiness for the exam.
