Hello everyone I really need help with my nursing equivalency . So I did my 3 year nursing in Nepal and I was a RN in my country too we can attend nursing school after we completed our 10th grade . But when I got the CES report from CGFNS it says my nursing degree is not comparable to US RN education . And because of CES report board of nursing denied my application when I called cgfns they said it is the board that decides if its comparable or not and the BON said when CES says the nursing degree is not comparable then none of the board can approve you . I don't know what should I do now because my friend also attended 10th grade and nursing after that and her CES says its comparable to Entry level RN equivalent in USA and She did GED after nursing but mine says my nursing and secondary school were combined which was not . Should I get my GED now and then Cgfns will make it comparable because USA have requirement of 12th grade for nursing ?
