This may be a stupid question but I just dnt know the answer... I know that different states have different requirements, so would I have to take it if I move to a different state or are the tests the same in every state.

You may have to complete some courses but generally I do not think people have many problems I know I didn't as a foreign trained nurse and endorsed fro NY to Az and just met their requirements

But you will need to meet the requirements for licensure for the new state and not all training is always accepted in all 50 states.
