    tantrum replied to rinsane's topic in International Nursing

    I knew 2 classmates in high school who went to a good private university in the Philippines (Ateneo). They finished business courses in the Philippines but they have to move with their husbands. They...

  5. Would It Be Possible For Prc To Cancel The Oathtaking At Aug 22??

    tantrum replied to cher383's topic in Philippines

    I also heard this humor, it's very rumorous:lol2: You don't even need the NLE to take the NCLEX, that's all they care about. If you need to cheat to pass the NLE, you have bigger problems as NCLEX is...

  6. I'M for retake NLE!

  7. Would It Be Possible For Prc To Cancel The Oathtaking At Aug 22??

    tantrum replied to cher383's topic in Philippines

    There is no basis for these rumors. The different BON of different state couldn't care less about your NLE scores. YOU NEED TO PASS NCLEX to work in the US. That's all they care about (and TOEFL for...

  8. work abroad w/out experience.. possible?

    tantrum replied to bajoy's topic in Philippines

    Tuy Nurse was just probably not clear with her post. Of course it's illegal to work as a tourist. What she probably meant was that her sister was able to get AOS as a walk-in applicant. However, that...

  9. what s the things requird/needd to say that your school is good in nursing programs?

    tantrum replied to [RN]wannabe09's topic in International Nursing

    It's really difficult if your school does not have a track record in passing the Board exams. THat's why it's important to see if at least some are passing the Boards (although most schools have low...

  10. "study ADN 5 trisems in RP + 1 trisem in US = US graduate" - is it possible??

    tantrum replied to jasonkidd's topic in International Nursing

    This has been discussed too many times. This degree (ASDN or AA) is good only for those with green cards or US citizenship. Even if they allow you to take the NCLEX and pass it, you need a BSN to be...

  11. new board passers: HOSPITALS YOU'VE APPLIED

    tantrum replied to cher383's topic in International Nursing

    There's no shortage of nurses. There will actually be an oversupply as there are more than 400 schools now with a lot of graduates. What we have is shortage of nurses willing to work for

  12. Commission on Higher Education

    tantrum replied to Interstate5's topic in International Nursing

    Also take a look at De Ocampo Memorial College. They take a lot of 2nd

  13. Schools for 2nd coursers - BS Nursing

    tantrum replied to gemini_star's topic in Philippines

    This issue has been discussed so many times. Even if you can take the NCLEX with an ASN, you need a BSN if you need sponsorship for a green card. The only other option is get a green card first via...

  14. RETROGRESSION for this year?

    tantrum replied to kingof heart's topic in International Nursing

    suzanne is correct. Nurses cannot be petitioned for H1B as these visas require a least 4 year Baccalaureat degrees to practice (like PT's, MDs). even if you qualify for H1B, why would you do that??...

  15. ncLeX in CAli..eligibility??how long??

    tantrum replied to gumdrop's topic in International Nursing

    I don't see the wisdom of taking it in California (unless you already have a US tourist visa). You will just risk getting denied by the embassy. Once you have the authorization to test, you can take...

  16. 25 and undecided

    tantrum replied to callcen2RN's topic in International Nursing

    If you really want to go to the US, your only limitation is passing the NCLEX and the English tests after your BSN. There will still be shortages in many areas by that time. Based on some articles (NY...

    tantrum replied to nwb's topic in International Nursing

    My wife is 37 and will be 38 when she gets her degree. She'll be 39 by the time she gets her RN license. She was inspired to go back to school when she was a CNA and she had a 50 year-old instructor...

  18. Wanted: From A Newly Grad Nurse At The Age Of 42

    tantrum replied to capricorn girl's topic in International Nursing

    The poster's problem is that she was probably applying for clinical experience in the Philippines. Unlike in the USA, they tolerate age discrimination there. It's just a stupid policy of most...
