Hi Everyone :) So I am an IEN working in Canada. This is my first job since graduating which would be nerve wracking enough but doing it in a whole different country is real tough. I've been in the job for about 10 months now but I haven't had a pro...

So long as you know your basic anatomy and physiology then the way I see it is that you can understand what can go wrong. Know what the "right" way of something working is and you can understand the wrong. A lot comes with experience but no one in th...

Hey I just started my first job and I am carrying a drug guide in my pocket to check my meds, and taking 3 times longer it seems than any of the more senior nurses. I loved my placements but found I was overwhelmed at exam time, but I got through it...

It took me from Nov 2010- Sept 2011 to go through the entire process, from applying to getting full registration. I started working yesterday and am loving it :)

No worries quickmelt :)

I phoned them and asked and they said you do NOT need to list the competencies you are demonstrating after your scenario as they will see which competencies you are demonstrating when they read and assess it

Congratulations pickles

I PASSED THE CRNE I'M AN IEN AND I DID IT CANADIAN STYLE WOOOOHOOOOOO Sooo pleased right now! Can't believe this! Wow! The waiting is over and I passed! YAY!!!

I've heard that but personally I would be getting tired by the time I came to the case studies, it was nice to see the shorter questions half way through

Sounds to me like you passed but I've not had results yet

Nothing for me either, London area, I'm hoping for tomorrow so I don't have to endure another weekend but think realistically it will be next week...

Congratulations!

Great news Lori911 CONGRATULATIONS And I have to say what a way to find out!!

I'm sorry pavu But you can do it I'm sure you'll pass with ease in October, good luck

I sat the CRNE recently and I would say the biggest thing is breathe! Try and get a good nights sleep and just give it your best shot! Good luck!!!!!

Sorry to hear that nursemich but good for you on the determination to pass! I hope next time brings better results

Nothing for me again today Oh well hopefully tomorrow will be the day

Are you an IEN? It's definately worth checking into the deadlines!!

In that case it really is up to you. When is the deadline for the October exam? You wouldn't want to miss it if the rescoring by hand comes up with the same result if that makes sense Very difficult decision though *hugs*

It's up to you, how much did you fail by (if you don't mind me asking) When is the deadline to resit? I think here in Ontario it's the 24th June in which case I personally would probably rather apply to resit rather than waste time on a hand scoring...

I'm sorry Denzo I don't really have any advice specifically, perhaps use a wider variety of books to study from. Was it a time problem? Did you manage to finish the whole exam? Which province are you in? There is a compendium on the CNO's website ...

Would be nice if they managed to get them out by the 13th, keeping my fingers crossed but I know they're busy so being a realist probably not until after the 13th. Oh well *sets up camp next to the post box*

You can apply to the CNO at any point you want to, however if you apply and your qualifications are not equivilant to the Canadian qualifications you will be declined the opportunity to take the exam and would have to pay again to be reassessed once ...

You can apply to the CNO in advance, they will assess you, see my previous reply on this thread. The application pack is available online, it took me 6 months to be assessed so start as soon as you can!!
