ATI TEAS Test Science Practice Test and Review
The science section of the ATI TEAS is arguably the most difficult section.
There’s probably not a person out there who has taken the TEAS that will tell you that science wasn’t the hardest most in-depth area.
For this reason we’re going to do a deep dive into all the topics you might see on the test.
We’ll go over all the topics but also some of the more anecdotal things like tips, strategies and the types of questions that you might see.
The science section of the TEAS is going to have 53 questions in 63 minutes.
The test does have unscored questions, for this section 47 questions are scored and 6 questions are unscored, but you won’t know which ones.
A&P is by far the area you need to know the most about, and roughly 32 of the 53 questions will be on A&P.
So this is your high value topic that you should be spending the most time studying.
The Smart Edition Academy online course covers every topic covered on this page in a very detailed way so that you can really learn and understand each topic, and you have the option to learn it with lesson modules, video lessons, test banks, flashcards, and practice tests.
