the nclex is definitely harder than the nle. although the nle has its share of weird questions, the answers to which cannot be found in any reference (as far as i've searched) unlike the nclex, where you can verify your answers on your nursing/medical textbooks. But common sense would tell you what answers they're looking for (although it gets confusing most times). here are some that i remember: "when girls get together, what do they usually talk about?" "when you learn that your goddaughter is cheating on her husband, what would be an appropriate thing to do?" (i say mind your own business,right?) "when boys get together, what do they usually talk about?" (no kidding!)

i have an approved employment based petition for immigrant visa, but because of the retrogression(unavailability of visa for skilled workers), which they say could last for a couple more years, i am thinking of applying for the meantime to australia. My aunt, who is an australian citizen would be the one to help me arrange my papers. She works in a hospital, and says they are hiring nurses. would i be in any way be in trouble with the law? i think it's unfair for us to be waiting five years for our US petitions, when so many opportunities are presenting themselves. I still want to pursue US, but for the meantime... we have families to feed and support...help please...

it's so nice to find someone who has a lot of experience under her belt retain her sense of humor.

i spent half a day searching for daytonite's posts, since i forgot her moniker. I only remembered the post regarding one "violet ankle" and her funny reply. Thank you for putting her on the spotlight.
