ATI TEAS

The ATI TEAS Exam consists of 170 questions with a total time limit of 209 minutes. Question formats include multiple choice, select-all-that-apply, fill-in-the-blank, ordered response, and hot spots.

Numerous resources are available to help you prepare for the TEAS exam. Start early! The test creators recommend giving yourself an average of six weeks to prepare before taking the exam.

• ATI Testing offers a variety of TEAS prep products.
• Free TEAS Review Sessions are available through the Learning Lab.
• A TEAS preparation book is available for purchase in the Campus Store.
• Free TEAS prep materials and practice tests are available through the VC Library in partnership with the Texas A&M University-Victoria Library. (To create a free account, click “Sign Up,” select “Texas A&M University-Victoria” for the institution name, enter your VC student email address, and leave the course section blank.)
• Additional third-party study materials and practice tests are available for free online.

• Arrive 15 minutes early. Testing starts at 8:30 a.m. Late arrivals will not test (no exceptions).
• Testing staff will check your photo ID, admit you to your test room, and direct you to a seat.
• Physically present proctors in the room are monitoring for odd or disruptive behavior. Do not engage in misconduct or disruption. If you do, you will be dismissed, and your exam will not be scored.
• The proctor will provide you with scratch paper for use during the test. Scratch paper is not to be used before the exam or during breaks. All paper, in its entirety, must be returned to the proctor at the end of the testing session.
• After the Mathematics session, you may take a 10-minute break. During the break, DO NOT access any personal items.
• If you need to leave your seat at any time other than the break, raise your hand. Time for the exam section will not stop. Lost time cannot be made up.
• If, during the exam, you have a technical issue with your computer, or for any reason need the proctor, raise your hand.
• Test challenges or testing room complaints should be reported to the proctor before leaving the room on exam day.

• Photo ID: To be admitted to your testing session, you will need to present proper photo identification, such as a driver’s license, passport, or green card. You will not be admitted to the test if you do not have your ID or if your ID does not meet the following requirements: government-issued, current photograph, examinee signature, and permanent address. A credit card photo, temporary license or student ID does not meet these criteria.
• Credit card: The ATI testing fee is paid online using your ATI login the day of the test. Cash is not accepted.
