Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS)

The TEAS was developed to measure basic essential skills in the academic content area domains of Reading, Mathematics, Science and English and Language Usage.  These entry level skills were deemed important for nursing program applicants by a panel of nursing program curriculum experts.

The TEAS is a 170-item, four-option, multiple-choice assessment.  To prepare in an organized and efficient manner, you should know what to expect from the real assessment.
