The ATI nursing admission exam (TEAS) is a tool to determine if students have the academic skills necessary to perform effectively in a school of nursing. It is a 170-question, online, multiple-choice exam that evaluates the essential reading, math, writing, and science skills of students seeking entry into a nursing program leading to licensure as a Registered Nurse. The exam is generated from an online website and must be completed in one sitting. Students have 209 minutes to complete the exam (3 hours and 29 minutes).
