Failed 3x in Fl. how to retake in Arizona/Missouri

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I'm a foreign student and retaking for the 4th time but don't know where state to test. Ive heard in Arizona and Missouri has a unlimited attempt to take the NCLEX RN. Is this true? If someone has an idea how is the processing I would really appreciate the help and how long it take to take the test. Do I need to go to the state for me to take test? TIA

You could try Texas BON. They process application fast and requirements are quiet similar to Florida. You just need to redo and pay for cgfns CES report for texas and your processing time should be fast because you already have an existing ces report from cgfns (if your retention of your submitted document hasnt expired). Cgfns just gonna reissue ces report to texas quick.

Thanks for replying. However, I didn't took the CGFNS for my credentials evaluation ,is it one of the agency approved by Florida BON, thats why Im choosing between Arizona and Missouri coz the Agency allowed to evaluate in that particular state.

Probably you could do the same with those states if the agency reviewed your credential has similar type reissuing report for your credential like the one with cgfns. As for how many retake, im not sure in those state if they have unlimited retake. Best bet you could do is to assume in other states that they have the florida's 3 takes because Ive seen alot of posts regarding retake that some BONs are imposing that 3 take rule and if you dont pass on the third try. They want you to do remedial course/class before you can take nclex again in their state.

when you apply for other state, the restriction of florida of 3 takes wont take an effect on the other state youre applying for. Its brand new set of takes. You need the remedial classes if you plan to continue to tske nclex on florida. (You wont do remedial class/course on texas because of 3 takes on florida you did. You can take your nclex upon texas approving your nclex application.)

Texas is pretty quick processing application like florida. 1-2month.

Alabama also has unlimited attempts as long as you are still eligible to test on Florida. They also process your application pretty fast too.

First off I would not keep looking around for a State that will give you x amount of tries I would figure out why you have failed 3 x's and what is the culprit. I have heard if you ever fail go to Florida. It was more on the language barrier. You have taken care of that one so maybe you need to do the remedial. If you keep failing you won't be able to go anywhere so find someone who can help you answer that question...It could be something quite simple...
