Hi Jewel, It's good to know I am not alone in this situation. I have been in touch with my school and they said you still need a copy of you signed templates / clinical cases. This has become a dilemma for me as well because I may have already misplaced them, but will continue to search among my old files. I will talk to the dean to ask what steps I can take in the event these are not located. Let me know if you have more info about this. I would love to connect with you so we can help each other on this journey. ?

Hello Mia! Wow! thank you for your response. Interestingly, I had been planning on doing just as you did - take review classes twice. I am all the more encouraged to pursue this. For the last 10 years I have worked in various industries in Canada - in healthcare, food, and also a short stint at a BPO. Now I manage the family business here in the Philippines. I am based here in Manila. I am not looking to practice actively- in fact friends and family feel I no longer need to take the boards as I have found my "call" in the business. However, taking the boards will somehow put an end to my perceived sense of failure, knowing I had not fully completed my nursing journey. Thank you again for your encouragement. What an affirmation this was. I will start reviewing in March and will take the NLE in November. Question: How did you manage your study time outside the review center? How did you schedule studying for the different topics? Tips would be so helpful! I am somewhat overwhelmed by the volume of material I need to pour over. Blessings on your IELTS by the way! In which countries are you looking to apply? Hope to "hear" from you again soon! Nicole

Hello, I finished my BSN in 2010 and I am contemplating taking the Philippine Nursing Licensure Exam in 2020. I never took the boards because my family at that time moved to another country. Is this still possible? If so, how can I best prepare for the exam? I would appreciate your insight into this. Thank you!
