Edison, New Jersey

Hi 👋 everyone, I have received wonderful guidance on my pursuit to work towards becoming a nurse! I have to start preparing and studying for the TEAS exam; I’m filled with anxiety and depression all at once! I have purchased the materials to help me with my studies and prepare myself for the exam. I would like to know if anyone has taken the exam, if so, was the exam difficult, or not as hard as I am imagining I’ve read some people say they had to retake it after failing, others passed on the first time. I was planning to start studying in April to the beginning of August and then schedule the exam; I feel 5 months of studying will help me to comprehend and understand. The test covers reading, math, science, and English/writing, and my kryptonite is math and science (not all of it but some of it like chemistry!) Please 🙏 can someone offer some advice, guidance, help, and tips please! I’ll be so grateful and thankful 🥹 to you! Thank you! 🙏 ?
