Not studying for the test is the biggest mistake you can make on the TEAS.
Although passing the TEAS is essential for admission to nursing and allied health programs, 30% of
eligible candidates are denied admission to ADN, Diploma, and BSN programs. Because the TEAS is a
comprehensive exam, you will be assessed in four subject areas. Therefore, preparation is essential.
Before taking the TEAS, we advise preparing for at least six weeks. Have a more limited time? We
have
solutions that work with any timeline, so don't worry.

Rescheduling or refunds are generally not allowed unless documented proof of an emergency exists. Once the exam is purchased, the date is final. If an emergency arises, such as a family death or medical issue, you may request an exception by emailing detailed information and documentation to proctor@atitesting.com.
• At your school:
Unlike online exams, rescheduling or refunds require documented proof of an emergency. To request a reschedule, email comments@atitesting.com with all necessary details and documentation.
• At a PSI Testing Center:
Rescheduling is possible up to 48 hours before your exam’s start time. You can do so via the ATI website or by contacting PSI Candidate Services at 833-537-1330.
If you plan to take the TEAS at home, you need a computer with a webcam, microphone, and a steady internet connection. To maintain the integrity of the test, a remote proctor will watch you via the webcam on your computer.
Make sure everything is set up according to the testing agency's instructions. You might also need to show the proctor your workspace before you start.
