What the Course Entails and Exam Details

This practice exam focuses exclusively on the content and skills evaluated within the Reading section of the ATI TEAS 2025. It is not a teaching course but a self-assessment tool designed to provide authentic practice. The core topics covered mirror the official ATI TEAS Reading objectives, including:

• Key Ideas and Details: Identifying main ideas, supporting details, summarization, and understanding a text's organizational structure.

• Craft and Structure: Interpreting words and phrases in context, determining the author's purpose, and analyzing the author's tone and point of view.

• Integration of Knowledge and Ideas: Evaluating a writer's claims, distinguishing between fact and opinion, utilizing information from various text types, and synthesizing information to draw inferences.

The practice test contains 39 authentic multiple-choice questions, which represents the full set of scored questions you will encounter on the official Reading subtest.

What to Expect in the Final Exam

When you take the Reading section of the official ATI TEAS in 2025, you can expect a rigorous assessment of your reading comprehension in a timed environment. Here are the specific details:

• Exam Format: The reading subtest consists entirely of multiple-choice questions, primarily focusing on short and medium-length passages from diverse sources.

• Total Questions: You will answer 39 questions (all of which are scored for the practice test, though the official exam may contain unscored pre-test questions).

• Time Limit: You will have approximately 55 minutes to complete the Reading section. Effective time management is essential to finish all questions within the allotted period.

• Passing Score Requirements: There is no single universal passing score for the TEAS. Program requirements vary widely between institutions. Most competitive nursing programs require a proficient composite score (e.g., above 60-70%), but specific score requirements for the Reading subtest will depend on the program you are applying to. You should consult the admission criteria for your desired school to set a specific target score.
