Medical Terminology Workbook

The ATI TEAS is used by many healthcare programs as part of their admissions process. While it is most commonly associated with nursing programs, it is also required by a variety of allied health programs.

Learn what will otherwise cost you time in your first semester: dosage calculations, anatomy/physiology, and medical terminology. Those three come up immediately and are entirely learnable in advance. Setting up how you will study early matters more than reading ahead in a textbook. Bootcamp Phase I covers the pre-semester preparation, and Phase II picks up from your first day.

Expect the volume to be the shock, not the difficulty of any single topic. The pace is faster than prerequisites, exam questions stop having one obviously correct answer, and clinicals add a second full commitment on top of coursework. Most students find their previous study methods stop working, which is normal rather than a sign they do not belong. Bootcamp Phase II covers learnable skills and prioritization frameworks like ABCs, Maslow’s, and ADPIE that decrease the initial shock most students experience in their first semester.

Active recall applied to mechanisms rather than facts. Nursing exams ask what you would do and why, so studying by rereading notes prepares you for the wrong task. Work from a consistent framework — what the concept is, what you would assess, what you would do, and how you would evaluate it — and practice questions become far more predictable.

Learning to decode terms takes weeks, not months, because you are learning a system rather than a vocabulary. Break words into their parts instead of memorizing them whole. Nearly every clinical term is built from a root plus a prefix or suffix, and those components repeat constantly across body systems. Learning the components once gives you access to hundreds of terms at a time. Nurse Cheung’s Medical Terminology Workbook gives you the tools you need to create repeatable systems of learning.

Determine the rate. Decide whether the rhythm is regular or irregular. Check whether P waves are present, upright, and one before each QRS. Measure the PR interval. Measure the QRS width. Those five answers narrow almost any strip to a small number of possibilities before you name anything. Study enough practice strips that the method stops requiring conscious effort. Most students need dozens rather than a handful, because recognition comes from volume. Working strips in mixed order, rather than grouped by rhythm type, is what tests whether you can actually do it. Nurse Cheung’s ECG Study Guide provides 65 practice strips in total: drills after each module, plus a 35-strip final exam.
