yup i tried that its just so hard to go through due to the volume of calls...but i will still try to call them

Hi I was currently denied the eligibility to take the NCLEX for RN here in SoCal so I decided that for the meantime to take my chances as a LVN. I was adviced by my evaluator that documents that I have submitted (especially the school documents) can be transfered or send to the LVN BON for me to be able to challenge their NCLEX. I was just wondering how the procedure works, should I request my documents first to be forwarded to LVN BON or should I submit my application first with the payment. Ive read that documents should be sent together with the application so I dont know how it works for document transfer. I would sincerely appreciate any information. Thanks :)

I gave every detail of my batchmate to my evaluator and still she was firm with her decision...anyway instead of hoping for the impossible I have laid down several options and plans that she (my evaluator) offered me...but for RN I guess the only explanation is that IVE GOT THE WRONG TIMING....

Anyway for those who commented, I dont care anymore since they made their decision and their still saying that its a different case with my batchmate which I still dont understand. But anyway thanks for all your opinions, still dont know the path Ill choose after this but fortunately its the right one...Thanks :)

Im actually hopeless right now since I received that email. What Im looking into is challenging the NCLEX for LVN (NCLEX-PN). I really cant afford to go back to school. I have no means of going out of state because I am currently employed here and of course I would need money for that one too.Hay......5 years, 6 days a week, 12 hours a day of school...all for nothing. Not even given a chance to take the exam. So disappointing

thank you all for your comments...i am not saying that it is unfair that i did not get the eligibility for of course the california bon has there requirements and standards to give out eligibility to take the nclex. what im saying is if your going to say no based on whatever reason better say no to everyone...as this applies to my situation and my batchmate's. yes you are right, being a rn is a priviledge because as we all know you have to attain certain things on top of that pass the nclex before you become a rn, but dont you think being able to sit down or be given a chance to take the nclex is a right...being able to challenge any licensure exam for that matter is a right? not a priviledge? well anyway i have just receive a reply from my evaluator after stating my situation with my batchmate's and now my evaluator is saying that, and i quote, "we only learned of the non concurrency in the philippines in november 2011, had we known when your “batchmate” submitted her application she would have had to produce same documents for review as you". i have been doing research myself and definitely the date november 2011 is not showing up.

Hi, I graduated from the Philippines last March 2011 and since it is so hard to get the requirements needed for the licensure application I had just completed all the requirements and submitted them these past few weeks. I literally had to fly back to Manila to accomplish everything. I had just receive a letter from the BON a few days ago saying that my clinical cases are not concurrent or not completed the same semester of my theoreticals. This is specifically for OB and MED-SURG. They now want me to go back to school and take both my theoreticals and clinicals which is so frustrating because it would take forever to find a school that would accept you and for you to finish those two subjects. I was also informed that my batchmate who pretty much had everything (school related) same as mine able to get the eligibility and passed the NCLEX just a month or two ago. This is just so unfair and as I read thru blogs it gave me both positive and negative insights. Do you think I should still fight for my right to be a RN, go back to school, go to another state or just be a LVN? Iam so desperate and confused right now and every means of contacting my evaluator is hopeless for they do not put you on hold when you call rather they tell you to try again later. I only now the contact information in their website but would appreciate any information to be able to contact them easier and faster. This letter had just crushed my dreams and altered every single plan I have for my future. A reply would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advanvce :)

hi im a fresh graduate of BSN from the philippines and just awaiting my documents to be able to apply for licensure... I would like to take the LVN exam? am i allowed to do so? and what are my requirements since i finished school abroad...thank you :)
