   Are there RN jobs (local hire) in Damman/Khobar for a Korean-licensed RN? Where can I find out?

2. resume

   snoopyleader replied to vonxojn's topic in General Nursing

   I'm applying for a job as a school nurse in a primary school (in an international school in the Gulf, Middle East). I'm re-writing my CV for this position. Are there online examples of resumes for school nurse jobs? Any advice? I'm 41, care for ...

3. Writing CGFNS with CVS

   snoopyleader replied to snoopyleader's topic in International

   If I understand you correctlly, passing the CP requirements is sufficient for a foreign-educated nurse (like me) to pratice nursing in the US (in which state I haven't decided). The requirements: CGFNS test, IELTS, NCLEX, and the verification of my...

4. Writing CGFNS with CVS

   snoopyleader posted a topic in International

   I have completed the CVS (Credentials Verification Service) so all my credentials have been verified. I now wish to write the CGFNS test. But this test seems to be only offered through the CP (Certification Program). What's the difference CVS and ...

5. The result: failed again, for the fourth time

   snoopyleader replied to snoopyleader's topic in NCLEX

   How do I enhance my ability to deeply understand the question-answering process? I have memorized a lot of nursing content but I can't seem to see the logical leap from that to applying this knowledge to answering questions. What's the trick?

6. Critical thinking skills training

   snoopyleader posted a topic in NCLEX

   Where can I find training to develop my critical-thinking skills (or problem-solving skills) and apply them to tackling NCLEX-RN questions? Up to now, I have spent much of my study time in memorizing nursing content from books. I have spent years d...

7. The result: failed again, for the fourth time

   snoopyleader replied to snoopyleader's topic in NCLEX

   Thanks for advice. I could get my mind off NCLEX-RN, wait and work for a year and do it again in summer 2008. I'm living in the Middle East now so I can work without it. This may give me some practical hands-on training that I might be able to appl...

8. The result: failed again, for the fourth time

   snoopyleader replied to snoopyleader's topic in NCLEX

   Thanks for your advice. I've decided to give it another shot this summer. What's the waiting period until I can write again? Between now and the summer, I plan to try Suzanne's method. I know my main problem with NCLEX-RN: lack of critical thin...

9. The result: failed again, for the fourth time

   snoopyleader posted a topic in NCLEX

   I just got the results. I failed NCLEX-RN...again, for the fourth time. I have spent so much money in flights to those countries that have the NCLEX-RN (US$5000)...not to mention the NCLEX-RN testing fees. The results really show me something. Ar...

10. Just wrote it -- did I pass it?

    snoopyleader replied to snoopyleader's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks for your encouragement. I haven't found out whether I passed. I'll have to wait and see.

11. Just wrote it -- did I pass it?

    snoopyleader posted a topic in NCLEX

    I've just written the NCLEX-RN...for the fourth time. I've failed it three times before. I'm really hoping that my extra hard studying pays off this time. I've been studying for this test for years. I think I started studying for it in 2002. I'm real...

12. Changes to NCLEX-RN this February 2007 -- part of 3-year cycle?

    snoopyleader posted a topic in NCLEX

    I've heard that NCLEX-RN will be changed this February 2007 to update or change the content to better reflect current nursing practice. Apparently, the content of NCLEX-RN is changed or updated every three years. Has anyone heard of this? My frie...

13. Online NCLEX-RN prep course for international Ss

    snoopyleader replied to snoopyleader's topic in NCLEX

    Do I need the CD with Saunders or just the book? I got the book but have lost the CD somewhere. My husband wants to help me with studying. Has anyone else found success in someone else helping you study (that someone would not be a nursing student)...

    snoopyleader posted a topic in Online Learning

    I'm working as an RN in the Persian Gulf but want to upgrade my skills to a BSN at a US post-secondary institutition. I'm not an American citizen (a Korean citizen). Can I do a BSN course completely while I'm working here, or do I need to take some...
