   evie08 replied to jeslea's topic in International

   Here is the website where you can download the application for New York. http://www.op.nysed.gov/nurse.htm I am not sure about the other states so I can't enlighten you about them. I think Texas requires that you have the locals. California and Ver...

2. what state should i apply for nclex

   evie08 replied to jeslea's topic in International

   I am from the Philippines, too. I suggest you apply for the state of New York. The license is renewable online after 3 years. I don't think you are required an SSN before you could renew. Also, you don't need the local boards to be able to apply. ...

3. HELP! I CAN'T FIND A JOB as a NEW GRAD RN

   evie08 replied to tdbRN's topic in New York

   Oooh, I am very interested in Public Health. I have a B.S. in Public Health before I went to Nursing. I don't see any postings for a Public Health nurse anywhere, though.

4. Where do you think the nursing problem / shortage begins??

   evie08 replied to Misslady113's topic in General Nursing

   I believe there will always be nursing shortage. But I don't think this economy can accommodate the shortage right now. I am a new grad who just passed the NCLEX and damn, is it hard! I am about to take anything just to get my feet wet. This certa...

6. can i take the NCLEX?

   evie08 replied to nicolai16_m05's topic in New York

   For New York, it's not an exam (credential verification only). For other states requiring CERTIFICATION, i believe it's an actual exam.

7. can i take the NCLEX?

   evie08 replied to nicolai16_m05's topic in New York

   the cgfns is for those who graduated outside the u.s. so yes, even if you are a u.s. citizen, you need to go through their verification/certification. my husband is a citizen and i am a permanent resident and we both had to go through it because we ...

   Yes I have. I took it last Feb 17. With a lot of prayers and a little bit of luck, I passed in my first try. You can do it, too:D

10. What does this mean?

    evie08 replied to chavelle1124's topic in NCLEX

    I think you should be good. (in terms of credentials). That's what my CGFNS info was saying when everything is fine and info has already been transmitted to the BON of the State I applied to. A week after report has been submitted, if I remembe...

11. Saunders cd questions- what percent to shoot for

    evie08 replied to jewelsgirl24's topic in NCLEX

    I was aiming for 80% all the time...but got around to just making mostly around 70-ish percent%...or sometimes even only above 60% on bad days... I passed the exam at 75 questions.... My husband never had the patience, though. He always always gets...

    I came from the Philippines, too. I just took the NCLEX for New York 2 weeks ago and passed ( I am in New Jersey). When they mail my license, I will apply for licensure by endorsement here in Jersey. New Jersey requires the Philippines boards, bu...

    CONGRATS! Great job!

14. One of these questions and answers make no sense whatsoever

    evie08 replied to Luv2care0907's topic in NCLEX

    Probably not in real life, definitely not the best answer...but NCLEX is a $#$%***!!!:angryfire..and it's supposed to be ideal. I think the rationale behind that answer is that it allows the patient to go through the NORMAL grieving process, without...

15. order to apply strategies???????

    evie08 replied to Gretel01's topic in NCLEX

    Well, you need to have a background of the diseases/illnesses. I noticed that if something is expected of a situation, then it is less of a priority. Like a person with asthma who is wheezing comes only 2nd to a person who is on IV who is suddenly...
