2nd time re-applying to test for nclex-rn in california question

Published

Hi guys! I need your help.. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.. Thanks!

Ok so this is my second time reapplying to sit for nclex rn and instead of getting the eligibility letter i recieved a letter stating that i need to send them my clinical rotation etc., curiculum, etc.. from my school, and a copy of my ssn.. But i've sent all of it to them already when i first applied and i have taken the nclex rn twice already, yes i was devastated and sad about that but im definitely not giving up.. Then this letter came, now im really worried that i have to wait that long to try it again.. It took me almost a year to have my application completed and finally sit and take the nclex rn.. I graduated in the philippines 2009, and im currently here in the u.s. , so its gonna be hard for me to get those stuff at my school and let them send it to CA BRN, im gonna be honest my school sucks at giving those stuff especially if your not there in person.. Is there anybody out there that experienced this too? If so, can you please help me what to do or what to explain to the evaluator tomorrow when i call them? Please help me guys.. :(

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

Until you speak to someone you can't do a lot. Having already sat exam you should be ok

did you get your credentials evaluated by CGFNS? That alone should be enough. Since you have taken your exam before with the same application..

Thank you silverdragon102.. I really hope so.. But the evaluator is on vacation, im really anxious to talk to her about my situation.. And this evaluator is a different person than my last evaluator.. Thats probably why its having some conflicts regarding my eligibility.. I guess this person didnt saw the requirements that i've sent them in the beginning.. I just hope they didnt lose my file or something.. Thanks for the reply.. :)

@ rodmarkq : no i didnt have my credentials evaluated by the CGFNS.. I took the CA BRN, they dont require it.. Yeah thats what i dont understand, i already sat for the NCLEX-RN and just wanted to give it shot again after studying even harder this time, why make me eligible before if i was lacking some of their requirements.. I failed it last sept, and im actually prepared now to take it again, then this mail came.. Giving me headache and loosing focus for the exam.. I hope this will be fixed soon and be eligible again.. Thanks for the reply! :)

@ iamfromstacatalina : hey kabayan! I was a batch '09 too! Man they're giving us a hard time.. I was reading some posts here too about that issue, some of them even said that they were told about some deficiencies and needed to go back to school for that deficiency.. I just hope that wont happen to us since we've taken it before.. I feel your worries, the evaluator is out till nov 28.. So i cant get to her till then which s*cks! Ill keep you posted, what your email? I cant pm here 'cause im a new user..

Right now there is nothing you can do until the evaluator comes back from vacation. Try to study for the NCLEX. You have come this far so don't give up. Try to focus on your areas of weakness. Good Luck
