Hi! Ive been working on my CGFNS (CES) for almost 9mos now. And cause Im from NJ, I needed to pass English Test. So, I took TOEFL last March 3. I got the results today, unfortunately I failed ( Now im torn and I don't know what to do. Should I take the English Exam again or do the CGFNS (CVS) of NY which doesnt require english test instead?

From what I've just quickly googled about TOEFL, I think you'd better work on the English- it could be really detrimental if you don't have a strong understanding of the English language, going into nursing. I've heard that English might very well be the hardest language to learn and understand. As someone who has run from a requirement that is pretty essential to the profession (math) it catches up with you. I'm completing my BSN and I have to take statistics this summer. So after...geesh, 13 years, it finally caught up with me.

Where are you planning on living and working. If NJ then English exam may still be required when endorsing license
I'll take note of your advice! Thank you so much!
Thanks for your opinion! Goodluck on your endeavours!
