you might have to be an RN in the US already. plus pass english exams if needed. and you need at least a year's relevant experience to qualify.

sorry if i sounded negatively as well. i don't use smileys and it makes it appear i am mean when i try to make a point. your comments were useful. tc.

i dont think you need to register asap. better even if you don't go with the hordes of people who want to register asap. call the prc to make sure.

please pay attention to the thread, which is about the oath taking ceremony. signing would mean affirming of the tenets in the oath, as oath taking itself is more ceremonial. you said so yourself that you accomplished the oath form. even notary publics require an oath but it is rarely practiced there. this is an argument for lawyers and philosophers of language. let this be the end of it.

you don't even have to take your oath, period. people in the philippines are always trying to scare people into submission. you just go to the prc on the scheduled date prescribed to get your id card. if you're sentimental do the oath taking. but you have the option not to. i bet even the dean will tell you its mandatory.

the ssn is only for americans/legal residents. don't put in your philippine ssn.

the card is free, the fingerprinting is not. you can request a maximum of 200 ( i think ) an interim permit is when you want to practice while waiting to sit in the exam and while waiting for the results. you need a local license from your home country to qualify for an interim permit. it is optional.

it takes about 2 years to finish a master's degree in the US. plus you need at least 1-2 years relevant working experience related to the masters you are eyeing to qualify. plus you need at least $25,000 in cash in a reputable bank to show the embassy. for the part that you have to return home, its when you get a scholarship that you have to leave the country for at least 2 years. if you want to be a student here, do it on your own, if you can afford it. you dont need an agency. then you dont have to go home for 2 years.

you do not have to attend the oath taking to get your license.

i checked my email the next day and the att was there.

i wonder how long this will be. great news guys.

thanks for the reply. i quoted it exactly just to make sure the question, answer and rationale are understood correctly. i know quoting from directly from the nclex isnt allowed, i didnt know quoting from the book wasnt either. sorry.

i would like a clarification on this question from Saunders comprehensive review cd. i might be interpreting it the wrong way. How can 6L per minute be below the normal range? thanks for the help. client’s cardiac output immediately after surgery was 6L/minute this measurement is: - above normal range - in the high normal range - in the low normal range - below the normal range Ans. 4. Rationale. The normal cardiac output for the adult can range from 4-8L/minute and varies greatly because of body size. The heart normally pumps 5L of blood every minute."

its right, do check out the california dmv website. you can print it for free if you want. although, as i remember, california does not accept international licenses. california has all sorts of laws that are a bit stiffer compared to other states. they also have sample exams on the website which are very useful. just remember that the dmv will want you to pass. theyre not out to fool you to flunk you. they will also issue you a license if you have a valid visitors visa. i got mine a few years ago and it was valid for as long as my visitors visa was valid. its fairly easy here, as long as you dont live in los angeles where all the traffic is. california has better traffic signs, at least better compared to the other states ive been in. (not meant to get anyone mad). just remember that the driving side is diferent here:chuckle

would you recommend foreign nurses work in their home country while waiting for the retrogression to be lifted? what do you think the chances are for foreign nurses without experience to get employment if the point system is approved?
