Im so nervous right now because i dont have any idea about the exam.You can read the NMC Code and Medicine Management standard. The SCIE site also has great e-learning modules that will be valuable when preparing for the test. The Royal Marsden Hospital manual compiles a lot of these along with nursing procedures based in the UK setting.Exam is 120 questions, all random multiple choice. No special algorithm like in NCLEX.As for question distribution, it really depends. You can read about the probability of topics that may appear on your test in the Pearson VUE guide for CBT takers. All you can be sure of is that you will get around 50 or so items that will be counted towards the critical questions part of the exam. These are unmarked, but they usually relate towards patient safety.Just use the time (you have 4 hours) to weigh each choice carefully and you'll get through it just fine.
Jul 2, 201511 yr hello guys,, regarding the declaration of good health, whose stamp is going to be used? the personal stamp of the doctor or the hospital stamp where they are working?thanks guys,.. please please ,, i need ASAP response,,, thanks again..
Jul 2, 201511 yr Hospital seal if the doctor is affiliated/employed in that hospital. Doctor's personal seal if otherwise.I uploaded my files in JPEG. I didn't know it was not allowed?It was stated in the online form itself that the scanned documents have to be in PDF format, was it not? If you haven't submitted it yet, you can still change it. Else, you might wanna contact NMC. Just have your PDF files ready.
Jul 3, 201511 yr where did you get this info? as far as I know as long as it is accessible it is fine. I will phone them later to ask about that. NMC didn't put any info about uploading PDF file specifically on the application portal isn't it?
Jul 3, 201511 yr My bad, you're right. I just checked, too and there wasn't anything on the portal. I just thought it required PDF since the file extension in my laptop when selecting which file to upload defaults to ".pdf". Also doesn't help clear things up that every form on there is in PDF. Well, if somebody can really clarify this, all the better.
Anybody here who took the Pearsons Vue NMC exam? How was it? TY!
