This book gives you quick information. I really liked the no fuss way of telling you how to take the teas test. There are some really good websites that you can get practice tests from. This was really helpful because they were like mini tests before the big TEAS test. I would recommend this book for people who want some more practice and have been out of school. I though that this book was really helpful along with the TEAS study guide.

I have been through many different manuals, trying to get as many angles on the TEAS as possible. This is one angle you can do without. Everything in here is common sense. The format is really dry, and there are very few examples. Of the examples, few are similar to the those in the ATI book. Stick with the ATI manual, and buy one of the cheap manuals for a more in depth study of your weak areas.

This book is a complete waste of money. It offers only the most basic test-taking advice; generic stuff you already know. There is only one example of each topic discussed, if any, and there are no practice problems or tests. It does not prepare you for the TEAS.
