  1. Does the NCLEX-PN have EKG questions?

    Expect anything and everything. They'll show you a diagram and won't directly ask you what the reading is but ask what you'd do if one of your patient's had that reading. I don't recommend you try to learn telemetry in a short amount of time but ju...

  3. US RN from the Philippines. Are you a BSN at work?

    Thanks for the responses! Seems like I'm going to have to ask the person in charge regarding that. Might seem a little shallow but we worked so hard for that BSN and it would be nice to at least have it recognized.
  4. Did your hospital/nursing home/etc honor your BSN meaning you are a BSN, RN at work? I am just curious cause I know a couple of people who graduated from the Philippines and are a BSN, RN but it's a different story for me..
  5. Having a batchmate approved does not necessarily mean that the rest will be too. A batchmate of mine was approved but the rest of us denied and all of us shared the same concurrency issue. Weird part is, the same analyst who approved my batchmate's...

  10. I too was recently denied by California and I know how that feels specially after months of submitting so many requirements. Out of the 8 people I knew applying for California 1 was lucky enough to get pass the concurrency issue and was given their ...
  11. I was aware of the breakdown of the hours but was not aware of the concurrency issues since that issue stems from the submission of the clinical cases which is then referenced with your nursing theories.
  12. Miss Karen, Could you link me to where you got that list from cause I'm a bit confused. I know that Virginia does not have those issues with foreign graduates since they rely solely on your CES report which does not evaluate your clinicals. Thanks, ...
