It also offers sample questions with accompanying explanations and study/test taking skills. The online practice assessment includes 100 items designed to be reflective of the TEAS™ in both content and format. Items are proportionally representative of the live assessment in each of the four content areas. Once purchased, students may access the TEAS™ Online Practice Assessment two times at no cost. In order to maximize the learning experience, each item is accompanied by detailed rationales for all correct and incorrect responses chosen. Students can take the practice assessment via the Internet at any convenient time and location.
