hello there.;) i took my nclex exam here in the philippines last nov 6. how many weeks will i wait for the results?... 3 of my friends already failed and one friend passed. he aleady answered 75 questions when the computer shutdown, mine too shutdown at 75.. i'm so nervous. waiting for so long prolong the agony...:crying2:

depends on the bon/brn you applied for initial licensure with.

if i passed the nclex exam. can i apply for a nurse job in us as entry level? or they really look more for an experienced one? ...:o does retrogression really affects us foreign nurses from being hired there?

we are seeing less and less hospitals petitioning foreign nurses due to the long wait. all you can do is try and keep an eye on the international forum (found under the region tab above on the yellow tool bar) where things are kept up to date on foreign nurses and the retrogression. also due to the long wait would more than likely prefer experience

it is a national exam so the same for all states. everyone needs to pass to get a license. however you will not get a license as ca will not issue license without ssn and that you will not get without a valid work visa. much has been written about ca in the international forum as well as the sticky in this forum re california as they will destroy your file after 3 years and that means your nclex results are also destroyed.

Yes if you haven't provided a SSN or applied to another state and moved your NCLEX results across. Once file is destroyed then so are your results. With retrogression that will be highly unlikely that you will get SSN so would suggest before your 3 years are up you apply to another state. Strongly suggest you read the International forum

I took the NCLEX RN on Nov. 20 in CA. My comp shut off at 178 questions. This is my second time taking it. Does anyone know someone that passed with that amount of questions?
