NMC Test Online

Published

Anybody here who took the Pearsons Vue NMC exam? How was it? TY!

This is true. You cannot just put the word "present" when NMC is asking for a concrete date. If in doubt, put in the date you'll send out the form.

With regards to sending out an email or by post, just send the email since it doesn't cost anything. What you have to consider when sending by post/courier is that it may be fast, but it doesn't mean NMC will put your mail ahead of their assessment queue. So it could take NMC about the same time to read your letter and consider it as sending the email and getting a response. At least emailing them is free. If unsure, ask NMC.

Thanks!!! I called them already and told me to just send an email. Im just quite worried that their response will be so late, but u have a point when you said that sending via post wont mean that they will upload it faster too.

Thank you. I'll call them again to verify this matter.

Hi Paul. Sure! Here's my timeline:

I took the IELTS last Jan 2015 (hahaha took me over a year to decide whether I should pursue a Nursing career in the UK).

Took CBT in April 25, 2016 - Failed it.

Retake in May 25, 2016 - Pass

Submitted all my documents before June 20 and everything was uploaded on my portal July 05.

So I was put on the queue on July 05..and 37 days after I received my DL.

cool!!! Anyway, 35 calendar days or 35 working days?

It will take them 15 calendar days to upload it to your portal from the time they received your document or it may be less.

Thanks Princess!

Hello

to those who had their DL

Does it show on the portal that the DL was issued? I was thinking maybe i might have deleted the email with my DL because it has been 6 weeks and still i did not receive any feedback from nmc

Guys, I would like to verify if my info is correct. You need UKVI for immigration purposes right? I was told that you can use UKVI result when applying for NMC registration. Is this true? thank you

yes you can also use it to apply with NMC provided that you satisfy their score requirement. it's like hitting two birds with one stone :)

NMC does accept UKVI IELTS or REGULAR IELTS results (its doesn't matter) as long as you achieved minimum of 7 in all components.

If you haven't taken IELTS yet I would suggest you take the UKVI one and get 7 in all part of the test since after nmc application process it would be needed for Visa processing for UK(although the required OBS for the Visa processing is only minimum of 4) so its like hitting two birds with one stone.

Thank you pinkprincess and sofibear. It's a good thing I didn't schedule for the regular IELTS. Will be taking the UKVI instead. It's more expensive but it worth a shot. ;)

Yes, it is reflected on your portal when it was issued.

And you can download your DL from your portal as many times as you want lol

The email only says "Your application has been assessed and you can now proceed with the next step. You can download your DL by logging in in your NMC portal." Not the exact words but kinda like that :)

Police clearances last only for 3 months after you upload it. There's too much hassle if you apply for that at the Philippine embassy in London. My cousin paid 200 Euros for the clearance alone. ;-)

This is for the identity check prior to OSCE right? So apart from presenting the clearances we uploaded in our portal during the full assessment, we have to get an updated one?

Yes, it will show there in the exam part 2 that you are eligible to take the OSCE at the Northampton Univeresity. There is also a downloadable decision letter at the bottom part. If you can't see this in your portal, maybe then you don't have a DL yet.
