Test of Essential Academic Skills

The TEAS was developed to measure basic essential skills in academic content area domains for Reading, Mathematics, Science, and English and Language Usage. These entry level skills were deemed important for nursing program applicants by a panel of nursing program curriculum experts. The TEAS is a 170-item, four-option, multiple-choice assessment. To order review materials and online practice session please go to www.atitesting.com .

It is not required to take the test prior to applying for the Chabot College Nursing (RN) program. The test will be given to any selected applicant that has not already taken the test. Selected applicants and alternates will be notified by mail date, time and location of the test.
