@ rareruby: the exam was pretty difficult -- mostly dealing with fundamentals. After the exam, the HR told us that they will text those who passed in two weeks and that if we didnt get a text message from them, that means we didnt make it. Well, I di...

Do you think it matters if I indicate in my resume that I am an NCLEX passer? Will it be a good idea or not? Cuz I just passed the exam at medical city. Took their psych exam. And now I am just waiting if i will be allowed to proceed with the intervi...

Thanks. I registered online yesterday at Pearsonvue and paid the $200 fee. I was able to print the receipt with the order number. But I wonder why I have not received any confirmation in my email until now. Been checking the spam folder too in case i...

I got my Eligibility from Ca the other day. They are pretty quick! Wasn't expecting it in another few weeks. So what's next after this? Is this the part where I need to register at the Pearsonvue online so I can get an ATT? Do I need to pay the full...

Thank you, Silverdragon102. I have been browsing the NCSBN website and I see that there will be a new test plan that will take effect this April of 2010. Well all of my review materials are based only on the previous 2007 test plan and these are all ...

Hi! Last November 16th I have submitted all my requirements to the CaBRN. How long would it take before I receive my eligibility? Also, can anyone tell me how do I go about the process if I decide take the exam in the US? I have an Aunt in Ca with w...

Hi! I am a new RN and have just started banking up on my trainings. Do you know which hospitals offer IV therapy training? How much? And can you please give me an idea of how to go about this -- like the completion and stuff?Thanks.

Okay, I see. So after I receive my eligibility, how do I get an ATT? Is that the one that can be done online? And what's next after that? Is it possible that I finish the process by early next year? Thanks for the info. I frequently get confused abou...

Hi! Last week I have received a confirmation from Fedex that my documents (Application for Examination and all other requirements) have been successfully delivered to the Ca BRN. So how long do I wait till I get a response from the Ca BRN? Is it what...

Thanks a lot! I'll check that site.

I already found out the answer! A = Asian/Pacific Islander

Yes, I know. You have a point. But at some time in the past I remember in my dad's Philippine passport it indicated "brown" for 'race'... And we are pure Filipinos. When I was doing my fingerprints at NBI, the other RN beside me wrote "A" for Asian. ...

Hehe! Because in the manual that they supplied what is supposed to be written, for example - BLK for black eyes/hair. But it didn't say what are my choices for the 'race'.

Thanks a lot! I will mail them tomorrow thru Fedex. But wait, one quick question... In my fingerprint card, what do I put in the space for 'race'? Is it 'A' for Asian? Or 'B' for brown? Sorry if I sound silly...

Thank you.

Hi! I'm almost done with my requirements for the Ca BRN. I am now at the point where I am preparing to send the application. My question now is would I really have to pay for the Interim Permit fee? I know it's only like $30 but I see in the requirem...

Thanks. How about the Phil Heart Center? I have inquired there but they require some kind of an online pre-enlistment procedure but I cannot see in their webpage where I could pre-enlist.

Thanks for the quick reply. Today I got my Transcripts from both schools where I have graduated college. Both are sealed but in my possession. Now I am wondering if it's okay to send them both in one package thru Fedex? Or would they have to be sent ...

Thank you so much! You've been a great help already! I have one more question... Last week, i just got my third set of fingerprint cards sent to me by Ca BRN. (The first two sets - was folded by the postman when he left it by my gate. I was very disa...

How would I know if I needed to have a Translation of International Academic Credentials form accomplished? My Transcript of Records is in English but I have minor subjects in Filipino like "Sining ng Pakikipagtalastasan", etc. Does that mean I would...

yes, i have just finished requesting for transcripts from both schools where i have graduated. at first i did think that one transcript from the last university i've attended would be sufficient since all my records were automatically sent from one u...

Thanks a lot, shubichilipepper! Where and how do i get a Fingerprint Hard Card? Do I include it together with the Application for Examination? How about the payment? I cannot enclose cash, can I?

So I assume that the Completed Application for Licensure by Examination Form, photos, and other requirements - you had to mail them separate from the transcripts too?

Thank you very much!
