The TEAS, Version 7 TEAS test is comprised of 170 questions that are formatted as both multiple-choice items and alternate-type questions. The pace of the exam is approximately 1 minute per item.

• You may take an optional 10-minute bathroom break upon completion of the Mathematics section of the TEAS. At that time, you may not access any personal items including cell phones, notes, manuals, etc. Any excessive time taken away from your seat will result in a flag and may result in a formal review of your exam.
• You may take your break and then, when you are ready to start the science section, please select “Proceed to next section” and your exam will continue.
• You do not have to take the full testing times below, once you are finished with a section, you can advance to the next section. You will have a maximum of 209 minutes to complete the exam.

There are four sections:

Reading                                               45 questions                55 minutes

Math                                                    38 questions                57 minutes

The TEAS 7 question types include:

• Multiple-Choice Item Types: questions that have four answer options with only one option as the correct answer. In addition to text, some multiple-choice items include charts, exhibits, and graphics.
• Alternate Item Types: These refer to questions that are not your standard multiple-choice, single answer questions. Currently, there are four different alternate item type questions on the ATI TEAS, Version 7 exam:
• Multiple Select items: Students will be presented with a list of four or more possible answers to a question and more than 1 may be correct. There will be a note on these question types to “select all that apply.” To answer the question correctly, the student must select all correct answers. If all correct answers are not selected, then the question is incorrect. No partial credit is given.
• Supply Answer items: This question type requires students to provide the answer to the question or “fill in the blank” without a set of options. Answers may be text or numerical values.
• Hot Spot items: These questions include an image with two to five clickable areas. Students are required to click on the area of the image identified as the correct response.
• Ordered Response items: These questions require students to place a set of response options in the correct order. Students drag between four and six response options from a box on the left to an empty box on the right. The question is answered correctly only if the student places all the correct options in the correct order within the box on the right. If an option is out of order, then the question is incorrect. No partial credit will be given.

You can retake the test. There is not a limit to the number of retakes but it does involve money and time. You will need to reschedule & pay the current TEAS fee on www.atitesting.com for all attempts.  If you are attending another college, please check with them on their retake policies.
