TEAS Preparatory class
Monroe’s TEAS Preparatory class is to assist individuals studying to pass the TEAS exam so that they can pursue admission to the School of Nursing at Monroe College. TEAS prep courses are a great way for students to re-learn important concepts while also learning new material that will be tested on the TEAS. TEAS prep courses will help students become more comfortable taking the TEAS by offering strategies and test taking tips. Like any test you take, studying beforehand will boost your chances for success. But, approximately 40% of students have to take the TEAS more than once, so prepping for the TEAS isn’t just helpful – it’s crucial. Learn More
