To do your best on the TEAS, make sure that you meet all minimum reading, writing and mathematics requirements for your program. If any pre-curriculum courses are necessary, complete those courses before taking the TEAS.

It is advisable not to take the TEAS until minimum placement test scores have been met or minimum course requirements have been completed. It is also advisable to take the TEAS after you have completed ENG 111, ENG 112, BIO 168 and BIO 169 (for Nursing) or BIO 163 (for Radiography or Medical Sonography). You should also pay close attention to published application deadlines to make sure you complete the TEAS in time. 

Please do not wait to the last minute to take the TEAS.  Many students wait until a week before an application deadline to try to register for an exam date only to find out they are already full.

The Radiography TEAS point chart is as follows:

• 0%-62% Composite score = 0 points
• 63%-70% Composite score = 3 points
• 71%-80% Composite Score = 6 points
• 81%-90% Composite Score = 12 points
• 91%-100% Composite Score = 20 points

The composite score is an average of an applicant’s reading, math, science and English and language usage scores. Applicants may take the TEAS multiple times; their highest score in each area will be used in calculating the composite score. Note that TEAS scores are reported as percentages, in decimal format (e.g., 70.5%). TEAS scores will be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number (0.4 or lower will be rounded down, while 0.5 or higher will be rounded up). 

Example: A student takes the TEAS exam and makes the following scores: reading 79.5%, math 62.1%, science 68.3% and English 74.5%.

Reading Math Science English	79.5% 62.1% 68.3% 74.5%	rounded up to rounded down to rounded down to rounded up to	80 62 68 75	In this example, the student's composite score equals 71. So, the student receives 6 points in the competitive ranking process.
			285 / 4 = 71

For Nursing, students must meet the minimum composite score of 59 to be eligible to apply to clinical Nursing. The composite score is not the total score that is printed on the score report.

• 0%-58% Composite score= Ineligible to apply*
• 59%-70% Composite score = 0 points
• 71%-80% Composite Score = 6 points
• 81%-90% Composite Score = 12 points
• 91%-100% Composite Score = 20 points

* If your score is in this category, please see Adriana Rodriguez (TEAS Administrator) or a Health Sciences advisor at the Perry Health Sciences Campus.

In this example, the student’s composite score equals 73. So, the student would receive 6 points.
