Wow, good luck to all those who are about to take the exam. I just received my decision letter a few weeks ago. I'm still waiting to be cleared from medical.

Did it take a while to hear from the CTN rep who deals with NMC information after your IELTS? I've been waiting a few weeks now to hear what my next steps are.

Hi @zedjRN

I already had my interview with them and fortunately I was accepted. I am currently in the process for my NMC registration. How did yours go?

Hi, Whitney

Yes. It usually takes CTN a while to reply to e-mails. The length of time varies depending on your inquiry. From my experience, if I have a question regarding my application status, it takes them a few days to a week. The whole process of applying is quite tedious and mostly depends on how fast and accurately you process your requirements. I was really careful with my documents because any mistake might lead to a few months delay.

Good luck on your application! :)

It's great to hear you girls are also going to be moving to London by July. I'm also expecting to get there around that time too. I hope to meet you there! :)

Good luck on the exams!

Hi Whitneyw1632 and Lady_sigrid726!

I have just received my decision letter last week and I'll be going through the ONP, CTN told me there is an intake for June in Cambridge. I tried asking the NMC if I can shift and take the exam instead of the ONP, however they told I can't do so because the decision was already released, unless I have to go through the whole process again. That does not sound so good actually.

Hi dana_canada!

I just noticed that you mentioned you'll be leaving for the UK this Feb.

I just want to know if you're in the UK now? and how is it going with CTN?

thank you.

:)

That's great! Any news on the difficulty of the exams or study tips? I'm still a little unsure of what to expect.

Hi guys!

I'm new to the idea of CTN. I love to be a part of it. But I have to ask - Is it all that they lead you to believe? I'm not trying to be negative here, but I would just like to see the options. I have a standing offer from an agency for Four Seasons Northern Ireland, and I'm from the Philippines. After that, then I saw this. Has anyone from this forum being a CTN got back? Thanks.

Well, that's great! Good luck on your IELTS!

I'm still planning to take my NMC on April because the I wanted to read everything in the Royal Marsden book and the blueprint just uhm, too much to process.

zedjRN · Feb 26, 2015
