I just completed the TSI ELAR & Math exam 5 minutes ago. I passed above expected!
Scores from the first time taking in 2022 :
ELAR - 956
Essay - 3
Math - 938
Diagnostics - 4

ELAR - 953
Essay - 5
Math - 950
No need for diagnostics, got enough right on the first 20!
Thank you for your help Mr. Toohey! I followed all of your instructions, studied your course, and applied everything I learned.
Definitly use the process of elemination. Look for the ones you know it's not it and cancel out, plug in a value for x and work out the problem. Know your rectangles and trapazoid. Memorize the Essay blue print.
Congratulations!!! Well done!!
Bro so how were the questions like? Are they hard? Plss I am gonna take it on Monday
Just like Mr. Toohey's videos. If you use the strategies he gives you'll do good!@@Redditstories189
I stumbled upon Mr. Toohey’s videos two days before taking my TSI test, I was so close to passing the Math part. I bought his crash course and studied for two weeks before taking the math section again and finally passed it! I have been out of school for over 16 years and he made it so easy for me to understand Math! I am just so grateful I found his crash course! Thank you!
Congratulations, Mayra!!! Thank you for sharing your story!!
Congrats I am retaking mine this weekend or next weekend I am very nervous because I overthink everything. I made a 921 back in 2022 without reviewing math but this year I worked in some math classes reviewing some of the material but I am still very worried about this test. I have 6 classes left to take to graduate and this test is what is holding me back from continuing. Any Advice on how to prepare.
@@YoBoySteven Honestly, I felt so lost while reviewing other math videos so I highly recommend that you buy Mr. Tooheys math crash course. I promise you will understand everything so much better! It really helped me a lot!
I’m 20 years out of high school. Made a choice I wanted to go to college. I had to take the TSI exams. Used both crash courses for ELAR and Math. I was able to pass both exams thanks to Mr.Toohey and his courses. Thanks for your help.
Congratulations Eric!! Thank you for sharing your story!!
Thanks so much for everything! Just passed my math TSI with a 966 on my first try! Couldn't have done it without you! God bless.
Congratulations!!! I’m so happy for you, and happy to help!! : )
My daughter did the pre-assessment and the practice test without studying and we were very concerned about her ability to pass with only 2 days to study. Ordered the course and went through each question, if she knew it and got it correct, we skipped the video explanations and only reviewed the items she didn't know. Wrote down the video and timestamp of each question that she did not know how to solve and re-reviewed those on day 2. Also had her study the cheat sheet the day of the test. Passed with a 960 with a total of about 4 hours of study time. Would not have passed without this course, excellent resource!
Thank you so much for sharing your story!!! I love how you approached her prep!! VERY smart way to do it!!
Thank you so much for your help sir. My high school math teachers haven’t been the best for 2 years. I was so scared to take this TSI and felt so unprepared.I can confidently say purchasing your course was one of the best decisions I have made.EVERYTHING clicked.I passed on the first 20 questions because of you.I truly hope you know how much people you have helped.Thank you again🙏
Congratulations!!! And thank you for your kind words!! I’m so honored to help students like yourself! Best of luck at the next level!!
Omg I just found your video! I took the TSI pre assess to check and all the math freaked me out!!! This is fabulous! I plan to watch and study and take the test next week! Thank you !!!!!
I’m so happy to help!! Let me know if you have any questions!
i just took the tsi a few weeks ago and i really wish i watched this before i took it. You explained things so well and it was so easy for me to understand.
I’m so happy to help!! Watch the rest of my videos and give the test another shot!
I CANT BELIEVE THAT NOW IS MY TURN TO SAY THANK YOU. I watched all of the videos for a week and I passed with the first 20questions, you are an amazing teacher, thank you so much ! I got 962, Im so happy!!
Congratulations!!! I’m so happy for your success!! Best of luck at the next level!!
Hiii, did you only watch the videos or did you buy his course? I’m worried the videos won’t be enough because everyone is only mentioning his paid course😭 haha, please let me know!!
@@diana_missesJin. i only watched his video, but like i watched all of them, and kept doing the exercises by myself, and also took some practicing tests online and i would use his method to go through all of them
I just passed the TSI in the first 20 questions at a 951! Lots of x-4x + 12 type agenda questions! Plugging in values helped SO much!!! I watched all 6 videos. This is so much better than learning from ground 0!
Congratulations on passing!! I’m so happy for your success!!
I signed up for Mr. Toohey's TSI math course. It was super helpful. I never took the SAT for college so now that I am transferring to a different college, they needed a TSI math score for me. It's been a couple of years since I took a math class so I was rusty. I watched the videos and got a "college ready" score on my first try. Mr. Toohey is super clear and really shows you how to approach the questions and not freak out. Figuring out what the question is asking is always hard for me and I think Mr. Toohey does a great job of showing you how to think about the questions. Highly recommend his course. Do it, take the test and pass! So worth it!
Thank you for sharing your story, Karen!! I’m so happy for your success!!
Would like the geometry portion you mentioned in the next video this one was really helpful as I’ve learned new things trying to go back to college!
Thanks for reaching out!! I offer the explanations to the geometry questions I mention in the Full version of the course! Just click the link in the description to get access!
Just recently took the tsi didn't pass the first the first reached out to Mr Toohey he explained again to me some concepts. Took the test again and passed thank you very much sir your course is the best plug in values work like magic.
Congratulations on your success!!! I’m so happy to help!! : )
Thank you for this video I have my tsi test tmr and this has been really helpful!
I’m so happy to help! Best of luck on your upcoming test… praying for your success!
Did you pass?
I recently just took the tsi! I bought the course that he offers and let me tell u it’s worth the money. he explains everything so well and shows such simple ways to approach these problems. Thank you so much Mr toohey!
You’re welcome!! I’m so happy to help!
Thank you for sharing your story, and best of luck with the rest of your studies!!
Such a great teacher
Thank you!!! Let me know if you have any questions! : )
As someone who is going to take my TSAI2 (MATH PART) tomorrow, thank you so much! I've looked at the practice test, but it doesn't have the updated version; so this is very helpful. 🙇
I’m happy to help!! Let me know if you have any questions!!
Omg I take it today I’m so nervous but u make everything make sense so let’s hope for the best!
Best of luck!! Praying for your success!!
I took the Math TSIA2 last week and number 5 is very similar to 1-2 questions on the test, thanks for breaking it down!
Thanks for the feedback!! I’m happy to help!!
Just took the tsi today after watching your videos the past week, and i passed with a 955 on the first 20 questions!! So happy
Congratulations!!! Best of luck at the next level!!
I’ve taken the TSI multiple times and always missed the mark, but after watching your videos and studying along with them I finally passed my TSI today!! Thank you sooo much Mr. Toohey! :)
Congratulations!!! I’m so happy for you!! Thank you for sharing your success!!
congrats! are these the actual questions on the test?
@user-pf8ev9nw1h No, but they are modeled on actual questions I have seen firsthand… the rest of the questions in my videos are official questions from the college board, the makers of the test..
I passed today after multiple attempts… you are the best tutor
So happy to help!! Congratulations on passing!!!
Thanks so much for your videos. A month ago l got a 937 in math. I was so disappointed but after watching all your tutorials l got a 950 last friday!!
Thank you!!
Congratulations!!! I’m so happy to help!!
Purchased the math course and passed with a 950 on the first try. You made it so simple. Thank You so much!
I’m so happy to help!
I failed it….
@ilovetaylor1377 sorry to hear you didn’t pass yet…
@@MichaelToohey It’s ok, this video helped me a lot and in two days I’ll take it again!
@ilovetaylor1377 ok! Give it another shot! And let me know if you have any questions!
I just wanna say thank you so much. I took the test twice before purchasing your course and my scores were 935 and 939. But after reviewing all your techniques I passed with a 958. Thank you again 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Congratulations!! I’m so happy to help!!
I hope this will help me ! I've been out of school for ten years and remember VERY little of math. Fingers cross I pass.
Best of luck on your upcoming test! Praying for your success!!
I just finished my TSI EXAM & I passed! 957 in math and got a 6 on my essay and 955 reading. Your videos definitely helped, as I'm 20 years after HS here 😆 thank you!
Congratulations!!! I’m so happy for your success!!!
Absolutely LOVE your videos!! You explain everything very well! I do have a question, though, with learning this way (logic and strategy) when we pass the TSI test and go into college level math, will it be a bigger struggle not knowing how to write out and solve the problems a specific way? (I still want to purchase your course, just curious if i need to also learn the other ways to be prepared for class)
You will definitely have to learn “math class math” to do well in your college math classes. Yes.
But a lot of the the strategies you learn in the course will still apply on later math tests, and maybe most importantly how to understand the “language of math” and what things mean in math.
That being said, College algebra is a different skill set for sure.
“Does that makes sense ?“❤
Ha! It appears to be my catchphrase! : )
It’s how I know if things really make sense to students or not… if I sense any hesitation in their response, I know there’s something unclear I need to explain…
Does that make sense?
; )
Omg I’m watching these the nights before I take the tsi for the final time I can I made a 941 my last time hope I pass tomorrow 🙏🙏
Best of luck!! Praying for your success!!
@@MichaelToohey I PASSED😁😁😁
@E_ve1 Congratulations!!!
Wow i knew you at rowlett high lol , thanks for the help!
Happy to help!! I’ve got fond memories of my time at RHS, lots of great people there! Did I have you in class?
@@MichaelToohey I did not have you for a class but everyone knew you as one of the more fun teachers! Lol glad to see you doing welll!
@highpriestfletcher Ha! Thank you! : )
The GOAT! 🙏
Ha! Thank you!!
MR. TOOHEY!
It’s been almost 10 years since I’ve taken my math TSI and failed it miserably ultimately leading to me dropping out of school.
10 years later, I decided to go to nursing school only to have the math TSI in my way again. I did the first few free videos and was so intrigued by your teaching style (I ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND IT) that I purchased the full course.
It was either pay for the full course + $10 for the TSI, or pay $650 for remedial math and waste my time.
I sacrificed a few weekends from my partner to study and get the concepts down… I could’ve cried yesterday
I PASSED I PASSED I PASSED! I got a 950, but for someone who’s never been good at math, that’s amazing! I only had to answer the first 20.
IM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOU!
I start school June 3rd 🫶🏻
Joey!! I’m so happy for you!! Congratulations on passing, and best of luck with your future studies! : )
@@MichaelToohey Thank you! I’m referring whoever needs help to you 🥹
@joey5952 Thank you!!
Thank you🫶🏼 I’m planning to take the TSIA2 in January and I’m really nervous
Don’t be nervous!! You can do this!! Watch my videos - I explain everything you need to know… and let me know if you have any questions! : )
Hello! I always see people that comment they’re taking the TSIA2 and never came back lol🤣 I PASSED the essay part which I was truly shock lol I follow your prompt and it was so easy! I’m really thankful ❤️🥹 bc English is my second language and sometimes I struggle lol but I fail the math part and ELAR. I will buy your course today and I will take it again on Saturday🫶🏼❤️🔥 I’ll keep you posted
@user-bw1kj9ik6o Please! Keep us posted!! Best of luck on your upcoming test, and let me know if you have any questions! : )
I’m taking the TSI today, super nervous 😬
You’ve got this!! Praying for your success!!!
Mr. Toohey I love your way of teaching and how you include other students and walk them through it (but you don't give them all the answers and let them figure it out). I will take the TSIA2 for the first time next week and I am a bit nervous. You have taught me things that I was never able to learn in all my school years in under a week. I have watched your recent videos but I'm not sure if I am prepared enough. Do you think being able to solve the practice questions after practicing a bit is a good sign that I could pass?
It’s definitely a good sign!! I can’t make any guarantees, but if you’re able to solve most of the questions on the official practice test then you should be in pretty good shape… keep watching my videos, and keep practicing! You can do this!
@@MichaelToohey Thank you for responding.. yes before watching your videos I had only gotten 4 questions right on the practice exam, so I got very worried. Now I only got 6/20 questions wrong on it. It is still a lot of wrong answers so I need to keep practicing as you said. Thank you.
@@MichaelToohey Mr. tomorrow morning I will take the TSIA2 for math and will make sure to update my score here. I am still not 100% sure but I am confident that I will pass thanks to your videos. Whatever the score is, it will be way higher than what it would've been without your help. But hopefully high enough to pass as well 🤣
@tessayes8345 Praying for your success on the test tomorrow! You’ve got this!!
@@MichaelToohey I passed my English with a 982, Essay with a 7, and Math with a 971!! Today was my first time taking them but it was also my last chance to take it before the semester started. I'm soo happy, thank you so much for your videos. 🤩
Hi. I decided to get back to college and get a new bachelor since I want to change careers and discovered that I need to pass the TSI test. It has been many years since I attended college, I did review some material and took the test but I felt in the math part obtaining a score of 935 of 950 which is the score I need to pass the test. Searching around I came across with your videos and found them very educational and easy to understand. I also saw that you offer a full course. How do I get the newest version of the course you offer? If you could help me guiding me where/how to get it I’ll very much appreciate. Thanks
Thanks for reaching out!! Just go to tsimath.net or click the link in the description of my TSI math videos to get access!!
And let me know if you have any other questions!
Hi Michael! What's the difference between your two free video series on RUclips (linked here) and the paid $59.00 crash course?
Good question! I always give away about half of my courses for free here on RUclips, which I’m happy to do! But that means you’re still missing at least half of the commonly tested concepts and question types you’re likely to see on the test if you don’t get access to the Full version of the course!
With the Full course You also get access to the TSI Math Basic Concept Cheat Sheet (with every major concept tested) and all the problem sets you need to succeed on the test!
Let me know if you have any other questions!
I’ve been out for school for a couple of years and don’t remember much. I have to take the TSIA 2 before I can start college and I don’t remember much what videos should I watch to prepare and teach me?
For sure watch Day 3 (part 1), my TSIA2 Math Practice Test video, and my TSIA2 Math Update video… those are closest to the first set of 20 questions that determine if you pass or fail…
But if you need help with basic arithmetic, you’ll want to watch Days 1 and 2 as well…
And if you’re serious about passing, you’ll want to get the full course and simply work your way through… I cover every major concept question type tested in the full course…
Just go to tsimath.net to get access!
And let me know if you have any other questions!
watched 18min of this video and scored a 965 thank you 🙏
Congratulations!!!
did u do anything else ??
@@ashhronii no
@@alanbriseno5767 im taking it for the first time tmr and idk what to expect
@ashhronii check out my video “What to Expect on the TSIA2 Math Test”
The math was easy I only failed because I didn’t know Median from range. If you can find the area of a triangle and know range, median, and averages you should pass
Sounds like you’re close to passing… Study up, and give the test another shot! And let me know if you have any questions!
@MichaelToohey for question 2, do we always use 1 for X or use other number if it does not work out?
That’s it! I usually recommend smaller numbers like 0 and 1 to start (just makes the arithmetic easier) but if you need to increase the values you can!
Sometimes you see an expression like x/5 and there it makes sense to plug in a 5 to simplify the expression… so it’s not a hard rule…
But as a rule of thumb start with 0 and 1
@@MichaelToohey Thank you, sir!
What is the calculator will use for the test, I just finished my GED, and is not the same?
Good question! Not sure about the calculator for the GED, but on most of the TSI Math questions you get a basic 4 function calculator, a square root calculator, or even an occasional graphing calculator on some of the questions…
How would you know when it not to plug in a number like in number 2
Almost any number will work to get rid of some of the wrong answers… but I generally recommend starting with smaller values like 0 or 1 because they generally make the arithmetic easier! You can always try lager numbers link 2, 3, or 4 if the smaller numbers don’t work… make sense?
Hello, I am going to need to take TSI math to get into college, would your lessons work specifically for college? Thanks 🙏 ❤️
Thanks for reaching out!! The course is designed to help you pass the TSI Math test as fast as possible! I don’t cover all the concepts tested in college Algebra, however: only those specifically tested on the TSI… Make sense?
This is great, but where can I find the cheat cheat?
The only way to get the cheat sheet (plus all the problem sets you need and all Day 3, 4, 5, and 6 videos) is to go to tsimath.net and get access to the Full course!
Is the cheat sheet only available through the crash course?
Yes! That’s correct! Just click the link in the description or go to tsimath.net to get access!
wish me lucky guys my test is friday
Praying for your success!!
I’ll take the TSI ELAR on the 24 any recommendations to pass? ( only need the multiple choice section ) my highest score is a 938 with a 4 on a diagnostic.
Please and thank you 🙏
Yes! Watch my TSI ELAR videos on RUclips, including my TSI Writing and TSI Essay Practice videos… if you like the way I teach and you’re learning from my videos, you can access the full course by clicking the link in the description of my videos! Let me know if you have any other questions!
I passed the TSI in first 20 questions with a score of 974. Thankyou so much sir Toohey for this wonderful preparation course 😁 and I do have a question.. What is CLEP exam meant for? Idk because it is recommended on my course placement.
Congratulations!! I’m so happy to help!!
CLEP is a test you can take to earn college credits… I’ve never taken the test so I can’t speak to the content or difficulty level, but if you can test out of more classes and earn some credits without taking the class, it can save you time and money… I’d seriously consider giving it a shot!
@@MichaelToohey Thanks for letting me know! I will consider taking them. 🙂
My test is tomorrow
Wish me all the best please ❤️
Absolutely!! I’m praying for your success!

@@MichaelToohey Buying ur course! My sister watched ur vids and passed her TSI first try. 💪🏼
@jorgesalas5535 Great to hear!! Best of luck on your upcoming test!!
Ive been out of school for over 30 years. I took it 3 months ago and received a 943, then took it again in December and received a 935. How long should i review before taking the TSIA2 math again? Math is the last class i need to graduate and I would like to do so in May but if i keep failing I cant sign up.😢😢
Thanks for reaching out!! The course is broken up into 6 “Days” of prep… ma y students have been able to fully prepare in less than a week, but I would say 1 to 2 weeks is ideal for most students… get access to the full course, watch the videos, practice the problem sets between the sections, and when your consistently able to answer the questions in the problem sets (using the strategies I teach in the course) you’re ready to take the test!
Let me know if you have any questions… You can do this! Just check out the comments section in my videos. I’ve helped countless students in situations like yours to finally pass the test!
@@MichaelToohey thank you so much! I will do that and keep you posted!
@HeyMrsWalkerTheBrand Please do!! Praying for your success!!
Hi, one quick question -- on timestamp 15:33, can you please explain how 3(1)² became = 3? Thank you
Sure! The only thing being squared in that expression is the 1… one squared means 1x1, which is just 1. Therefore, you get 3x1 which is just 3! Make sense?
@@MichaelToohey yes! Confusing but makes sense! Thank you!
@user-pf8ev9nw1h remember PEMDAS… exponents before multiplication… and remember you’re only squaring the number raised to the power… let me know if you have any other questions! : )
Hi please I can’t find the link
No problem! You can find the link in the description of the video, or just go to tsimath.net to get the full version!
is there somewhere I can see your full cheat sheet? i've been using your videos and cheat sheet to study for weeks now but its hard to see the whole sheet in the video.

You get all 15+ hours of video instruction, access to all the problem sets you need to practice,!and the TSI Math cheat sheet
@@MichaelToohey all I need is the paper🙁thanks anyway
Can you plz explain question 4 as it asks how many people will be employed by the company next year so we have 140 employees already so 49 more people will be employed next year so 49 is the amswer how is it 189??
Good question! Notice the question says the number of employees will INCREASE by 35%, so the answer has to be bigger than 140… I mean if it didn’t increase at all (an increase of 0%) then it would still be 140, right??
But because it’s an Increase of 35%, you can find 35% of 140 (which is 49) and add it back to 140 to get 189.
You can also just multiply 140 by 1.35 to get 189, as I show you in the video…
Make sense?
@@MichaelToohey yes got it
Thanks
Happy to help!
Do you do statistics?
Thanks for reaching out! Do you mean in the course or in general?
I'm just gonna send it. Omw to take the math section rn.
Praying for your success!!
Lmao FULL SEND. How’d it go???
I’m deaf so I wonder if your courses have a subtitle or transcript?
Thank you for reaching out!! My more recent uploads in my courses have transcripts/subtitles automatically added… so that’s Days 1-5 of my TSI Math Crash course. Unfortunately, Day 6 doesn’t have subtitles, and neither does my ELAR Crash course… looking into this now to see if there’s a quick fix where I can add them by changing some settings… I’ll let you know if I’m able to do so soon!
minute 28:18
Why the correct answer is not 49? it says how many employees will be employed not the total of the employees there will be next year..
Good question! The question says the number of employees (currently 140) is going to increase by 35%… so the number of employees has to be greater than 140, right?
The number of people that will be employed by the company IS the total… 189. if the question was asking “what is the increase” you could go with 49.
Make sense?
@@MichaelToohey i guess my issue is with the translation to my language of "will be employed", it sounds to me like a process of employment is going to happen - rather than - the total of people that are going to be hired that year, its very strange because it feels like the question has two meanings.
Makes sense! There really could be a language issue here… if you interpret “employed” as newly hired, it would be confusing…
@@MichaelToohey i got a score of 968 in math and 944 in readiness, and two 5's.. is that good?
Advisor said she have no idea what kind of score is it 😅but can only run the system and tell me if i need to retake it or not, anyways i passed ! thank you Mr. Michael!
@user-gp1in5ir1x 968 is definitely a great score in Math!! Really well done!!
Not sure if 944 on CRC is enough for the program you’re applying, but the scores you got on the diagnostic could be enough for you to be considered “College Ready”… you can find more detailed information about interpreting your score on the college board website:
accuplacer.collegeboard.org/accuplacer/pdf/tsia2-interpreting-your-scores.pdf
Hope that helps!
Hi, in question #2 why are you plugging in just the 1, and how are you getting 10 and knowing that’s the right answer?? I have my math TSAI2 in 2 days 😅 16:46
Good question! Notice they’re asking about the factors of the expression in the question… so we can can plug in a value for x to turn this into arithmetic. If x = 1, then the question is suddenly “which of the following is a factor of 10” (notice, it’s not “which equals 10”)
The factors of 10 are positive and negative 1,2,5,10, because those are numbers you can multiply together to get 10 (the definition of a factor… also see the example of the factors of 12 in the video)… so if we get any of those factors of 10 in the answer choices, it could be the the right answer… in this case, only answer choice C gives us a factor of 10 (when x=1), so it has to be C
Make sense?
Let me know if you have any other questions!
Hi Mr toohey .. I wanted to ask you if I got 16/20 in the math tsi exam will I pass ??
Great question! I would argue that 14-16 right out of 20 would probably be enough for a passing score. No one knows for sure, but based on what I’ve seen that a reasonable estimate!
@@MichaelToohey that's so great to know.. thanks teacher 🤍
I’m happy to help! : )
Failed my tsi makes no sense
I’m sorry to hear you haven’t passed yet! Let me know if you have any questions… I’ll be happy to help!
Same bro! I was so close to passing though
hi mr.toohey, i started watching your videos in january and i got a 949 on my tsi today!! I am so close, but i’m proud because math has been something i’ve struggled with all my life. it felt impossible until i found your teaching. your style just works for me, i got so many right from plugging in answers like you tell us too. i’m going to be set to graduate college this spring.
i only need one point so i will be going again to get it done next week. please send prayers!! and if you have any advice to strengthen me to ensure i’m set. i noticed i only struggled with geometric spatial/algebraic reasoning a little, so if you have any recommendations for me on that. i can’t wait to comment again once i pass!🩷
You’ve got this Lauren!!! You’re sooo close!!!
Of course, I’ll be praying for you and your success!!
Do you have access to the full version of the course yet?? I have a lot of geometry questions covered in the full version that don’t appear in my RUclips videos…
