And now, after several months of waiting they told me that my interview will be on last week of may or june..Its really hard because you cant even apply to any job opportunities (if any) if you're enthusiastic in this crap.Just adding more patience in waiting for the upcoming interview.This will be my first ever interview thats why im so nervous and worried especially on my english skills..

so it cud really take that long? wah! i passed mine last april 23 and had my exam on the 27th. was ur exam 100 items or the short one? coz i noticed that d other applicants had a different type of exam.

so if i fail i will still be given another exam? glad to hear that, coz i'm really anxious about what the result wud gonna be.. hehe they told us to call the office after 2 weeks for the result. is weekend included in counting? hehe still clueless... hope we all pass.. c u der!

Re: military nursing

032987, what? half of the questions are computations? guess that I'm a slow regarding to math computations.. that's my biggest weakness.. haha.. If it is really meant for me then maybe I'll pass it. guess that i have to study again.. ..... I'm almost a bum for almost 6 months as of now .. yep I'm a November 08 board passer. i'm bored.. I need a job! LOLs..hahaha.. thanks 032987.. God Bless

Re: military nursing

yes,which depends on the workload of the checker..hehe..because she/he check it manually..Actually,my first exam was short but then I failed..The second exam i took was 100 items.I think it was far more easier than the first one except the computations!!lol..As far as i know, you could only call the office during weekdays..Maybe it depends on your result if you're still qualified to retake the exam..Anyway, do you know the passing rate? Is it 80 or 75?

there are two sets of exam.. i had infos before that if you got 80 or above in the NLE, you get to have the short exam. if below 80, you will have to take the 100 item exam. does your 1st exam had 5 point essay and 5 point NCP? im not sure about the passing rate but i heard that it's 80 for the long one. i saw the answer sheet of that exam,there's enumeration, essay, computation, identification, multiple choice... im not sure what else is included. was there also an NCP?

do you know if they have reserved officers in the nurse corps? any idea of how to apply?

Re: military nursing

so I need to take the long type of exam?... haha.. Okay then so be it...May the force of the God be with you always! hope that the result will be positive !!!

Re: military nursing

Hello,

I'd like to know if anyone has started training this year. I completed all my requirements last April and I'm still waiting for my next interview.

Re: military nursing

Hello! Has anyone here already got a confirmation from NC for the start of training?

Re: military nursing

I really want to be a military nurse I have the skills and knowledge but I lack the height. I am only 5'2 male and after reading an article from the phil star http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=440288 I feel that I can pass their height requirement for both male and female which is 5 ft. But I still wonder why the height requirement for female has already changed to 5ft. (the fact that my classmate in college was already completing her requirement like cert of singleness etc. after passing the exam which stands at exact 5ft.) and the height requirement for male still doesn't changed.

.

maybe they found out from some sort of study that majority of aspiring females do not qualify for the height requirement. if you really want to get in the military, why not try to apply in the NC reserve force? the height requirement for males is 5'2". the training is only during weekends, for 6 months. total of 25 days, plus you don't ahve to sacrifice your life as a civilian. you'll be in an on-call status, you get to keep your civilian job.
