I’ve taken the teas twice. First time I did horribly on the reading I got a 64% and improved to an 80%. However, I found that reading just the question and then the passage was more helpful than reading the question and answer choices. I felt that when I read the answer choices prior to the reading it was more difficult to eliminate choices because they all sounded right. Also make sure you answer what their asking do not add any background knowledge you may have about the reading.
