Need Help On Cgfns Examination

World Immigration

Published

:eek: :confused:

Hi Everybody I think I need some help with the CGFNS Ex. I've just failed on July 2003. Iwas really sure that I did well, but I failed. the major problem is that as I'm not living in US i had to travel specially for the examination. And as the comunication with the CGFNS was no as fluent as I would expect, I was told that I was rostered only a few days before the examination date. So I traveled under great stress, I mean, Ihad never been to NY and I traveled by myself. The trip was really great; the only problem was that I failed. I really studied quite little, I have to say. i used The CGFNS study guide and KAPLAN.

Can anobody recomend other sources of study? Can any body has any experience on CGFNS EX. Thank you. FABY

Please take the time to do a search here. All of the information that you are requesting is already on this forum.

The thread that you are actually posting to is more than a couple of years old.

Do not select a state based on what you need for there, but based on where you wish to work. That is how you should start.

Decide where you want to work, and then go from there. Suggest that you take the time to do some reading on this forum, particularly to the stickies at the top of this forum.

And there is a retrogression in place, so just coming to the US for the purpose of staying will do you know good, and is actually illegal per US Immigration. You must be in the US for five months before you can work legally, and that is when there are visas available. US Immigration is cracking down on those that come over and begin working when they legally cannot and they are deporting.

Please take the time to do some reading and follow legal options. What you want to do is not one of them. You have a long time to go just to be able to sit for the NCLEX exam, and get the other requirements completed.

She is already working in the US, this thread was started several years ago, please check out the dates.

The CGFNS exam is only required for about five states now, it has not been required for all of the states for several years now. And it is only for the US, just like the NCLEX exam is only for the US for licensure.

Suggest that you have a look at the Primer at the top of this forum, there is much information that you need to know.

There is no reason to write the CGFNS exam unless it is specifically required for the state that you wish to work in. No other reason to write it, it will not help you with anything at all.

Hi and welcome to the site

Which state are you planning on working? as not many states now require the CGFNS exam contrary to what agencies tell you. Also you are applying for licensure in the US as a RN not the NCLEX that is just part of the process. Please take the time to read the International forum exspecially the thread called primer to working in the US

I suggest having a good read on here and use the search facility using keywords of Florida and California there are plenty of threads covering both these states and their requirements. You can also use google.com and keywords California nursing and Florida nursing and will pull up their websites so you can get up to date information on requirements of foreign nurse.

For a start CGFNS exam is not required by both BONs
