These free Admission Tests study guides focus on TEAS preparation through reading, maths, science and English learning activities. Use original short exercises to practise evidence, units, variables and sentence meaning. Our linked catalogue resources use older section labels, so match each resource by topic rather than assuming its section number describes the current test. Build a balanced revision plan that includes science as well as the subjects represented by the product links. Check the requirements of the institution and test version you intend to take.

Build a plan around the current subject areas
Organise your TEAS revision around reading, mathematics, science, and English and language usage. Then place each available resource under the topic it actually supports. Older catalogue section numbers should not define your current test plan. A resource on sentence completion may contribute to English practice while leaving science topics unaddressed. Record those gaps explicitly so repeated work on a comfortable subject does not crowd out another subject.
Practice task: Map the four study areas to resources, original practice and remaining gaps. Expected result: A balanced plan that includes science. Common mistake to avoid: Using older catalogue section numbers as the current test structure
Separate a stated claim from an inference
A reading answer should distinguish what the passage states from what a reader reasonably infers. Write a short original paragraph and underline the words supporting each claim. If an inference needs an unstated assumption, label it instead of presenting it as a quotation. Compare two plausible answers by their support in the text. The task develops comprehension rather than recall of a memorised sample passage.
Practice task: Write an original paragraph and classify three statements as stated, inferred or unsupported. Expected result: An evidence-based reading explanation. Common mistake to avoid: Choosing a plausible statement that the passage does not support
Explain ratios with units and estimation
A ratio calculation should keep its units visible. For example, an original practice problem with 10 units spread equally across 4 groups gives 2.5 units per group. Explain why the division matches the question, and estimate the likely size of the answer before calculating. Check whether the requested answer is a total, rate or proportion. The method matters more than remembering this specific pair of numbers.
Practice task: Create and solve a different equal-sharing problem with units and an estimate. Expected result: A calculation with a reproducible explanation. Common mistake to avoid: Giving a number without checking what it measures
Review sentence structure in context
Sentence correction should preserve intended meaning while checking grammar and structure. Compare an original sentence with two revisions, then explain agreement, punctuation or word choice in context. A grammatically possible phrase can still change the meaning of the passage. Keep the reason for the correction in the error log, rather than storing only the corrected sentence. Use your own examples to test whether the principle transfers.
Practice task: Write a sentence with one agreement error and explain two possible revisions. Expected result: A correction that preserves meaning and explains the rule. Common mistake to avoid: Selecting a fluent revision that changes the intended meaning
Connect science terms with variables and evidence
Science revision should connect terminology with a process, relationship or observation. In an original experiment summary, identify the variable changed, the outcome measured and the conditions kept comparable. A result from one setup does not establish every possible explanation. Use simple fictional data to practise reading a table and identifying a limitation. Include relevant science foundations in the plan even though this page has no separate science product link.
Practice task: Annotate a fictional experiment with changed variable, measured outcome and one limitation. Expected result: A science explanation distinguishing observations from broader claims. Common mistake to avoid: Memorising science terms without understanding the evidence
Use mixed practice to locate the underlying gap
A missed answer may reflect comprehension, an arithmetic error, a unit mismatch or an unfamiliar concept. Classify the gap before choosing the next activity. Repeat the principle with a new original example, then combine it with a different subject after the foundation is clear. Keep timing practice separate from concept repair so rushing through more questions does not conceal the same recurring misunderstanding.
Practice task: Create an error log across reading, maths, science and English with one next task per gap. Expected result: A revision plan based on causes rather than score alone. Common mistake to avoid: Repeating timed practice without investigating the error
Practical checklist: produce evidence you can review
Complete these activities as written exercises or in an authorised practice environment with fictional data. Define the expected outcome before starting and save a brief explanation of what the result establishes. Verify version-specific steps for your selected target.
| Activity | What to do | Expected result |
|---|---|---|
| Build a plan around the current subject areas | Map the four study areas to resources, original practice and remaining gaps. | A balanced plan that includes science. |
| Separate a stated claim from an inference | Write an original paragraph and classify three statements as stated, inferred or unsupported. | An evidence-based reading explanation. |
| Explain ratios with units and estimation | Create and solve a different equal-sharing problem with units and an estimate. | A calculation with a reproducible explanation. |
| Review sentence structure in context | Write a sentence with one agreement error and explain two possible revisions. | A correction that preserves meaning and explains the rule. |
Common mistakes and better study habits
Use these comparisons to find an assumption worth revisiting. For each mistake, write a new example with different details and explain why the corrected principle still applies.
| Common mistake | Why it matters | Better approach |
|---|---|---|
| Selecting a fluent revision that changes the intended meaning | This assumption skips a relevant check in: Review sentence structure in context. | Write a sentence with one agreement error and explain two possible revisions. Review the expected result: A correction that preserves meaning and explains the rule. |
| Memorising science terms without understanding the evidence | This assumption skips a relevant check in: Connect science terms with variables and evidence. | Annotate a fictional experiment with changed variable, measured outcome and one limitation. Review the expected result: A science explanation distinguishing observations from broader claims. |
| Repeating timed practice without investigating the error | This assumption skips a relevant check in: Use mixed practice to locate the underlying gap. | Create an error log across reading, maths, science and English with one next task per gap. Review the expected result: A revision plan based on causes rather than score alone. |
An original Admission Tests self-check scenario
An original passage reports that a class practised more, but gives no comparison result. Does it establish that scores improved?
Explanation: No. More practice is the reported observation; improved scores would require additional evidence. Distinguish the plausible expectation from the statement supported by the passage. Write a revised passage that supplies a comparison and check how the answer changes.
Write your own answer before reading the explanation. Identify the evidence supporting it, then change one detail and decide whether your answer should change. This is an original learning exercise, not an actual exam question.
A flexible four-week study plan
| Stage | Focus | Practice outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | Select the target and foundations | Map the four study areas to resources, original practice and remaining gaps. A balanced plan that includes science. |
| Week 2 | Apply core concepts | Write an original paragraph and classify three statements as stated, inferred or unsupported. An evidence-based reading explanation. |
| Week 3 | Investigate weak topics | Create and solve a different equal-sharing problem with units and an estimate. A calculation with a reproducible explanation. |
| Week 4 | Review mixed examples | Write a sentence with one agreement error and explain two possible revisions. A correction that preserves meaning and explains the rule. |
Four weeks is an example schedule, not a promise of readiness. Adjust each stage to your experience and available time. Extend a stage when you cannot explain the topic without the notes or apply it to a fresh scenario. Revisit the exact target objectives so a familiar topic does not replace a relevant topic you have not practised.
Build a revision record that shows progress
Create a tracker with target topic, initial explanation, practice activity, observed result and next review date. Separate a topic you recognise from a topic you can apply. A useful record makes the remaining gap visible and helps you choose the next activity instead of repeatedly rereading the same material.
When an answer is wrong, preserve the initial assumption, the contradicting evidence and the corrected principle. Create a second example using different details. If the explanation works only for the first example, return to the concept before adding more resources. Review recurring errors together: they may reveal a missing foundation rather than several unrelated weaknesses.
| Tracker field | Example entry to write | Review question |
|---|---|---|
| Requirement | Map the four study areas to resources, original practice and remaining gaps. | What outcome am I trying to establish? |
| Evidence | A balanced plan that includes science. | Which observation supports my explanation? |
| Limitation | State what the exercise did not establish. | Am I making a broader claim than the evidence allows? |
| Next activity | Write an original paragraph and classify three statements as stated, inferred or unsupported. | What new example will test the principle? |
