Approved to take the nclex. Don't know what to do next

blabber, RN · Mar 12, 2009

Sirs, I want to ask for your advise.
I am very overwhelmed, I just got approved to take nclex. I don't know what will I do next. I want to take a review course for nclex and would like to take the nclex right after the course.
The bon wrote that I should register with pearsonvue.
I want to take the exam within the year in manila.

Hi flors,

The eligibility has an expiration date if I'm not mistaken. Therefore, you should register with pearsonvue to sit for the nclex exam before your eligibility lapse. If you want to take a review course, then go ahead and do it but you also mentioned that you want to take the nclex exam soon after the review so, why not register with pearsonvue already so you will have your exam schedule.

Just my suggestion... :)

Definitely check out the expiration date of your eligibility. Would also suggest you check out the NCLEX forum under the student tab above.

Since the Retrogression will get worse before it gets better, take it easy. So many Pinoys have passed the NCLEX and are not going anywhere anyway, been there, done that. Try to stretch your deadline as much as you can since you have many. many years ahead of you. Enjoy life, take the review, take the exam and be cool. It's just another phase in a very, very long journey.

I had their instructions in bullets: i just numbered them

1. register with pearson, and pay.

2. pearson will send your details with candidate number.

3. when you are ready to get ATT, email us your details with candidate id.

4. once we receive the email we will contact pearson and have them release your ATT.

5. once we make you eligible to get your ATT, you only have 90 days to take the exam.

6. when you register with pearson give them you email address.

7. once you have your ATT, call pearson immediately to schedule.

I am not yet decided what particular date this year I will be taking the exam.

From where do I count until the expiration/s?

I applied in vermont.

Is this a direct quote?

If so you better book your review course, part of the 90 days are gone allready.

Question 5 gives you 90 days eligibility and that starts from when they give you it

I have not yet registered with pearsonvue and I dont have my att yet sir.

Does the 90day already running?

This indicates that your time has started already. Recheck what your eligibility says

Hello,

I'm a fresh grad nurse from Philippines, but currently residing in NY and I just got my eligibility letter yesterday. :yeah:

I'm planning to take a four month review course with Kaplan which they offer for international nurses. The problem is, I'm not certain with the eligibility expiration, I didn't see any expiration date on the letter. :bluecry1:

Is it advisable that I register on pearsonvue now?? Since the ATT has 90day expiration. What should I do??

~hope my post is still related to this thread~

p.s. I would like to salute all the forum mods. I once took advice from this forum regarding processing my license application. And I appreciate the help! Hopefully I can return the favor to those who seek help..
