[jelc]

I am jel and I am from Philippines, batch 2008 graduate. I just move in here Nevada with my husband. And few weeks from now I will be moving again in Maryland. I am planning to take the NClex in Northern mAriana Island because of the less requirements they have, as long as I will submit all the needed requirements, but I am worrying if I will be moving in Maryland, and if ever I will pass the Nclex in Mariana Island, i can use the license in Maryland right?! please help..

Probably not. Contact the Maryland Board of Nursing and ask them.
