TEAS & HESI A2 exam prep questions, answered.

The HESI-A2 (Health Education Systems, Inc. Admission Assessment) is a standardized test used by nursing schools to evaluate applicants' academic readiness. It covers multiple subjects including math, reading comprehension, vocabulary, grammar, biology, chemistry, anatomy & physiology, and critical thinking. Practice HESI-A2 questions to build your skills before exam day.

The HESI-A2 consists of up to 9 different academic exams and a personality profile. Most nursing schools require 4-7 of these components. Each section contains 25-50 questions, and the entire exam takes about 4 hours to complete. Schools determine which sections are required for their program.

Most nursing programs require a minimum score between 75% and 90%, with the average being around 80%. However, requirements vary by institution, so check with your specific nursing program for their minimum score requirements.

Prepare by using official HESI study materials, taking HESI A2 practice tests, reviewing concepts with the HESI A2 study guides, and using topic question banks to revisit weaker areas. Start early enough to practise, review the answer rationales, and repeat topics that need more work.

The number of attempts allowed varies by nursing program. Some schools allow multiple attempts with waiting periods between tests (typically 30-90 days), while others limit you to 1-2 attempts per application cycle. Check your school's policy before scheduling retakes.

Yes, the HESI-A2 can be taken either at designated testing centers or as a proctored online exam from home, depending on your nursing program's requirements. The online version uses Proctorio software to monitor test-takers and prevent cheating.

Most nursing programs accept HESI-A2 scores that are 1-3 years old. The exact timeframe varies by institution, so verify with your specific program to ensure your scores will be considered valid when you apply.

A basic calculator is provided within the testing software for the mathematics section. Personal calculators are not permitted during the exam. The provided calculator has basic functions sufficient for solving the math problems on the test.

The HESI-A2 typically covers: Mathematics, Reading Comprehension, Vocabulary & General Knowledge, Grammar, Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy & Physiology, and Physics. Not all schools require all sections, so check with your program to see which ones you need to take.

The cost of the HESI-A2 exam ranges from $40 to $100, depending on the testing location and how many sections you're required to take. Some schools include the fee in their application process, while others require separate payment directly to the testing service.

The TEAS (Test of Essential Academic Skills) is a standardized test developed by ATI (Assessment Technologies Institute) to assess a student's preparedness for entering health science programs, particularly nursing. It evaluates knowledge in reading, mathematics, science, and English language usage. Practice TEAS questions to prepare effectively.

The current version is TEAS 7, released in 2022. It replaced TEAS 6 (also known as ATI TEAS). Always check with your nursing program to confirm which version they require, as some programs may still accept TEAS 6 scores during the transition period.

The TEAS exam consists of 170 multiple-choice questions divided into four sections: Reading (45 questions, 55 minutes), Mathematics (38 questions, 57 minutes), Science (50 questions, 60 minutes), and English Language Usage (37 questions, 37 minutes). The total testing time is 209 minutes (3 hours and 29 minutes).

A competitive TEAS score is typically above the national average of approximately 65-75%. Many nursing programs require minimum scores between 65% and 80%, with more competitive programs requiring scores in the 80-90% range. Check with your specific program for their requirements.

Prepare with official ATI TEAS study materials, ATI TEAS practice tests, and focused review across Reading, Mathematics, Science, and English and Language Usage. Use the TEAS study guides to revisit concepts and topic question banks to practise weaker areas before testing again.

Most institutions allow multiple attempts, but policies vary. Typically, schools permit 1-3 attempts per application cycle with waiting periods of 30-45 days between attempts. Some schools may consider only your most recent score, while others take the highest score.

Yes, the TEAS exam can be taken either at designated testing centers or as a proctored online exam from home (TEAS at ATI). The online version uses Proctorio software for remote proctoring. Check with your nursing program to ensure they accept the online format.

Most nursing programs accept TEAS scores that are 1-2 years old, though some may extend this to 3 years. Verify with your specific program to ensure your scores will be considered valid when you apply.

A four-function calculator is provided within the testing software for the mathematics section only. Personal calculators are not permitted. The provided calculator can perform basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

The cost of the TEAS exam ranges from $60 to $140, depending on the testing location and format (in-person vs. online). Some institutions may include the fee in their application process, while others require separate payment directly to ATI.

Both exams assess academic readiness for nursing programs, but they differ in structure and content emphasis. TEAS has four sections (Reading, Math, Science, English) while HESI-A2 has up to 9 sections. TEAS is developed by ATI, while HESI is by Elsevier. Different nursing programs prefer one exam over the other.

No, the current TEAS exam does not have a separate writing section where you compose an essay. Instead, writing skills are assessed within the English Language Usage section through questions about grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and language use.
