TEAS practice test: ATI TEAS 7 practice questions and TEAS test prep
The TEAS is not a hard test in the way the MCAT is hard. It is a broad test, and it is decided by Science. Most applicants who miss their number missed it on Anatomy and Physiology, and that is a fixable problem.
- Unlimited ATI TEAS 7 style questions across all four sections
- Anatomy and Physiology drilled hardest, because Science decides most applications
- A full rationale on every answer, not just an answer key

The short answer
The ATI TEAS 7 has 170 questions (150 scored, 20 unscored) across four sections, with 209 minutes of total testing time: Reading, Mathematics, Science, and English and Language Usage. ATI does not set a passing score. Each nursing program sets its own minimum, commonly in the 60s to mid 70s percent, while competitive BSN programs often expect 80% or higher. Science is the largest section and the one that sinks most applicants, because it is heavily Anatomy and Physiology. Aspirants.ai generates unlimited TEAS practice questions with the rationale on every answer, from $9 a month.

What is on the ATI TEAS 7
The TEAS is the entrance exam most US nursing and allied-health programs use to screen applicants. It has 170 questions, of which 150 are scored and 20 are unscored pretest items you cannot identify, and you get 209 minutes in total. The clock is set per section, so you cannot borrow time from Reading to finish Science. Question types go beyond multiple choice: expect multiple select (select all that apply), fill in the blank, ordered response and hot spot items.
- Science: 44 scored questions, 60 minutes
- Reading: 39 scored questions, 55 minutes
- Mathematics: 34 scored questions, 57 minutes
- English and Language Usage: 33 scored questions, 37 minutes
Science is the section that decides your application
Science is the biggest section on the TEAS and it leans hard on Anatomy and Physiology: body systems, their structures, and how they interact. Applicants who are strong readers and comfortable with basic algebra still lose their seat here, because they treated Science as one quarter of the test rather than as the section that separates the applicant pool. If you have limited study time, spend it disproportionately on A&P, then chemistry, then scientific reasoning.
- Anatomy and Physiology: the largest and most decisive content area
- Biology, chemistry and basic physics concepts
- Scientific reasoning: reading a study, an experiment or a data table
What TEAS score do you actually need
There is no universal passing score, because ATI does not set one. Your program does. In practice, minimums commonly sit somewhere in the 60s to mid 70s percent for many associate-degree and allied-health programs, and competitive BSN programs frequently expect 80% or higher. Some programs also set a floor on individual sections, usually Math or Science. Look up the exact requirement for every program on your list before you decide what score you are chasing, because chasing a number nobody asked for is wasted study time.
- The Adjusted Individual Total Score is the headline number programs read
- Some programs also enforce a per-section minimum, most often Science or Math
- Retake policy is set by the program, not by ATI, so check the rules before your first attempt
How to raise a TEAS score in 4 to 6 weeks
Take a full practice test first, cold, and let it tell you the truth about your sections. Then stop studying evenly. Put most of your hours into the weakest section, drill it in timed blocks that match the real per-section clock, and review every miss until you can explain the correct answer without looking. Rereading a review book start to finish is the most common way applicants burn six weeks and move nothing.
- Week 1: a cold practice test, then a per-section score breakdown
- Weeks 2 to 4: high-volume drilling of the weakest sections, usually Science and Math
- Weeks 5 to 6: full timed practice tests plus review of every missed item

TEAS prep options compared
What each route costs and what it actually gets you, including where the official material genuinely wins.
| Option | Typical US cost | What you get | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| ATI official practice assessments | Priced per assessment by ATI | Practice built by the people who write the exam, on the closest thing to the real interface. The best score predictor you can buy, but a finite number of items. | A realistic score check before test day |
| TEAS prep book (ATI study manual, Mometrix, Kaplan) | Roughly the cost of a textbook | Content review across all four sections and some practice questions. Static, and you will finish the questions. | Content gaps, especially if your A&P is rusty |
| Live TEAS bootcamp or class | Commonly a few hundred dollars | Scheduled instruction and accountability across a few weeks. | Applicants who will not study without a calendar |
| Aspirants.ai AI tutor | From $9/mo | Unlimited TEAS-style questions across all four sections with a full rationale on each, plus 24x7 answers on A&P and math. | High-volume drilling of the section you keep missing |
Prices change. Verify current pricing with each provider, and check your own program's TEAS requirements before you buy anything.

Honest answers
TEAS practice test, answered straight.
There is no universal passing score. ATI does not set a pass or fail line, so each nursing or allied-health program sets its own minimum. Those minimums commonly sit in the 60s to mid 70s percent, and competitive BSN programs often expect 80% or higher. Check your specific program.
The ATI TEAS 7 has 170 questions in total: 150 that count toward your score and 20 unscored pretest items. They are split across Science (44 scored), Reading (39 scored), Mathematics (34 scored) and English and Language Usage (33 scored).
Total testing time is 209 minutes, and the clock is set per section: 60 minutes for Science, 57 for Mathematics, 55 for Reading and 37 for English and Language Usage. You cannot carry unused time from one section into another.
Science, for most applicants. It is the largest section and it leans heavily on Anatomy and Physiology, which is the content people are furthest from if they have not taken A&P recently. It is also the section where targeted drilling produces the fastest score gains.
It is broad rather than deep. The content is high-school and intro-college level, but it covers four subjects and it is timed tightly per section. Applicants who fail their target score usually did not run out of ability, they ran out of Anatomy and Physiology.
That is set by your program, not by ATI. Many programs allow 2 to 3 attempts within an application cycle and impose a waiting period between them, and some average your attempts rather than taking the highest. Read your program's retake policy before your first sitting.
