,Dear Future TEAS Exam Success Story:
Congratulations on your purchase of our study guide. Our goal in writing our study guide was to
cover the content on the test, as well as provide insight into typical test taking mistakes and how to
overcome them.
Standardized tests are a key component of being successful, which only increases the importance of
doing well in the high-pressure high-stakes environment of test day. How well you do on this test
will have a significant impact on your future, and we have the research and practical advice to help
you execute on test day.
The product you’re reading now is designed to exploit weaknesses in the test itself, and help you
avoid the most common errors test takers frequently make.
How to use this study guide
We don’t want to waste your time. Our study guide is fast-paced and fluff-free. We suggest going
through it a number of times, as repetition is an important part of learning new information and
C
concepts.
First, read through the study guide completely to get a feel for the content and organization. Read
LE
the general success strategies first, and then proceed to the content sections. Each tip has been
carefully selected for its effectiveness.
Second, read through the study guide again, and take notes in the margins and highlight those
sections where you may have a particular weakness.

Your success is our success
