Create an account with ATI. You will then be able to select a date and register for the exam. You will
need your NCC student ID number. Your NCC-ID is in the form of "N00XXXXXX" and is entered as capital N, followed by two zeros and 6 unique numbers that belong
to you. A credit or debit card for the non-refundable fee is required. If you fail
to test on your scheduled dates, you will need to re-register for the exam and re-pay
for the new exam.
Dates are listed on the ATI website and are available after registering for your account.
You must register and sign up for the test at least 48 hours before the exam date.
In addition to a valid government issued photo ID such as a driver's license, state-issued ID or passport, you must register in advance
for the test, pay the registration fee, and also meet any other technical requirements
in order to take the exam remotely.
The TEAS test is designed to assess knowledge and skills in four areas: math, reading,
English and science. The reading subtest consists of items that include paragraph
comprehension, passage comprehension and inferences/conclusions. The math subtest
includes whole numbers, metric conversion, fractions, decimals, algebraic equations,
percentages and ratio/proportion. The science subtest includes science reasoning,
science knowledge, biology, chemistry, anatomy, physiology, basic physical principles
and general science. The English and language subtest includes items covering punctuation,
grammar, sentence structure, contextual words and spelling.
The time Limit is 209 minutes or about 3.5 hours. There are a total of 170 multiple
choice questions. Calculators are built into the exam.
There is no set number of times that applicants may take the TEAS Test. If you choose
to take the test again, there is no waiting period between test dates but you must
register and pay the fees for each time you take test.
If you did not choose to have your scores sent to NCC, you may go to the ATI website
and have an official score report sent to the Office of Admissions at Nassau Community
College.
Test scores will be valid for two years.
Requests and documentation for special accommodations must be emailed to our Continuing Education Office at teas@ncc.edu, at least two weeks before the scheduled exam.
