NCLEX in CA + NY

Published

hi guys! :idea:

its been a puzzlin' week for me

i just checked out the ca bon webiste

regarding application for nclex..

a friend of mine told me that its gonna

take a while for them to give us the a.t.t.

but some would say ca bon is the fastest

amongst all the state.. which is better among

the two ny or ca bon regarding a.t.t.?

because i believe in ny i still have to undergo

cvs for ny state...

is there any state in us that it would only take them

3-5 mos for att? and also i sat-in for cgfns/nclex

review in labagnoy review center for a month but i

quit for some personal reasons, they were talling us

that study guide such as saunder's / kaplan

is not enough speacially if we dont have a hospital

setting backround.. is that true?

i really need guidance from this website regarding

att and review materials thanks!!!! ;)

actually CA makes u eligible after 3-6 mos. among all the states, CA is the slowest...

i disagree. answering NCLEX questions should be based on the book! it is theoretical. you should not answer based on the real world(the one you experienced in the hospital). because what we are doing in the hospital may not be the ideal way to do it...

saunders and kaplan are good review material... i used them both. study on my own and passed on my first try @75.

maybe they are telling that to have more profit on their review center...

Filipino RNs nowadays apply for either Vermont or New Mexico and many of them are posting that it only takes about 2-3 mos. because they don't require any service from CGFNS to be made eligible. They then endorse to another state that doesn't also require any service from CGFNS such as CA.

There will also be instances that it is better to just apply directly to the State BON you would like to be licensed to, esp. for those State BONs that require CGFNS' CES such as NJ, FL, IL to name a few.

If you'll do a search here, you'll come upon threads and posts on how to apply to those 2 BON.

hi lawrence!

so you mean its a lot better to apply for

a ces? like the on in ny cvs for ny?

but it will take like a year for them to

evaluate my credentials.. and another

6 months for att

thanks! ;)

To take it from the State where you would like to work is eventually the fastest!

You might be able to sit for NCLEX faster from any other state but eventually, endorsement will take the same procedure as if you're applying for examination. The difference however is that if you're licensed in other state, you can work pretty soon in the State where you originally wanted to work by using temporary permit.

fastest to have att according to some posts here are New Mexico and Vermont.

*you should decide where you really want to work ;)... dont think which is the fastest... just like what they said, you may take the nclex in a little length of time.. but the endorsement process "might" take long..

Agree. So lana, w/c state do you want to work?? If you answer this 1st then posters here will be able to help you out better.

FutureUSRN is also right. It may boil down to just about the same time-frame if you include the endorsement process. But, still depends on w/c state you want to work. There are always excemptions to everything.

i'd be glad if i'll be working in ny or nj

but they both need cvs or ces and its goin

to take a while for cgfns to evaluate my

credentials, i actually learned from a friend

that cvs for ny state took her 14 mos before

she was allowed to apply for att and so is

with nj... so im really having a flaming hand on

which to choose :flamesonb

thanks so much! i need more opinon :wink2:

how long usually does the endorsement take?

i'd really want to work in ny or nj but like what ive

said they both need cvs/ces and thats goin to take

a while like 14-16mos... and im going to apply that thru

cgfns, i need more opinion.. thank you so much! ;)
