Hi,

I am planning to take NCLEX at the earliest.But i have some doubts related with..any help most welcome..

Since i have taken CGFNS once( but failed),they have all my transcripts etc..

1) Which state is processing fast (except Newyork) ?

2) My IELTS is going to expire this september,2006.Is IELTS is a prerequisite for applying NCLEX?ie, can i take IELTS after finished the NCLEX?

I am not talking about the entire process (VSC etc..).

Language requirement is for immigration. There are only a few states that have language requirements, and those that do, usually want the TOEFL series, or part of it, such as TSE or jus the basic TOEFL.

The states that have requirements will require that the English exam is completed first, NCLEX exam is just the last step of the licensing process.

Does CGFNS actually have a completed set of transcripts for you? The full set of transcripts is actually not a requirement for the exam, your school could have filled out just the one page form that is required.

Vermont is fast.................

Just so that you are aware, you will need to have the VSC issued before your exam scores expire.

If you already have passed IELTS, why do you need to take it again?

Thanks suzanne for your prompt reply..please let me make clear my situation..

I am currently working in Ireland,(basically from India)..As you know that,we can take the exam now in India.

I want to write the NCLEX exam ,within this september 2006 because my IELTS expires in september.

If i start the process now ,is it possible? If it is not possible what should be the next step? ie,how can i avoid again taking IELTS? I am not depending any agency right now.

Expecting your valuable comments!!!!!!!

kind regards
