  1. NCLEX exam before CGFNS

    mpgj83 replied to ladyniavi's topic in General World

    I was always under the impression that an applicant had to obtain his or her ATT first before sitting in for the NCLEX. So is it actually permissible to take NCLEX first without ever having yet...

  2. CA BON asking for Clinical rotation booklet/log

    mpgj83 replied to hazelilagan's topic in Nurse Registration

    Also, may I ask what the additional requirements that they asked of you were, aside from the clinical rotation booklet? Thank you!

  3. CA BON asking for Clinical rotation booklet/log

    mpgj83 replied to hazelilagan's topic in Nurse Registration

    So we are not required to get the ATT first before we take the NCLEX? This has been an issue that's confused me because I've read some people seem to have already taken there NCLEX before even...

  4. Concurrency and Deficiency - What do these entail exactly?

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

    So I've just reviewed Title 16 California Code of Regulations, Article 3 Schools of Nursing, Section 1426 Required Curriculum. (Board of Registered Nursing - Title 16, California Code of Regulations)...

  5. Concurrency and Deficiency - What do these entail exactly?

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

    I haven't categorically accused CA BRN of being haphazard in their evaluations of our applications. I've only implied that it is possible that evaluators could easily overlook certain aspects of it,...

  6. CA BON asking for Clinical rotation booklet/log

    mpgj83 replied to hazelilagan's topic in Nurse Registration

    I'm in the process of applying to CA BRN myself and I am sorry but I don't have an answer for you. I am going to bump up this thread though because I have a question of my own. Is there any recent CA...

  9. Online CE Courses

    mpgj83 posted a topic in Nursing Career

    I'm a foreign grad and am still applying to sit in for the NCLEX. Seeing as to how this will be a very long wait, would it be a good idea to take online CE courses? I'm interested in taking Spanish...

  11. CA BRN New Requirements For NCLEX RN international students

    mpgj83 replied to brooklyn03's topic in Nurse Registration

    Sigh, I'm still thinking about it. I have another question, if you don't mind. How can I process my fingerprint card if I am still in the Philippines? Is it possible to do that here? Thank

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

    Thank you steppybay! That info definitely sheds a lot of light and I'm realizing now one of the biggest differences between nursing here and there is that students in the Philippines don't get that...

    mpgj83 replied to Kylie53189's topic in Nursing Career

    I'm a recent graduate of a BSN program in the Philippines. I'm also INFJ and had wondered how I'd deal with situations I might find highly stimulating, sometimes uncomfortably so. I encountered such...

  16. Recent Philippines BSN grad, also US citizen, looking to return to US.

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

    I am actually a US citizen so the SSN will be no problem. Do you think my having completed a B.S. degree at UC Los Angeles and having had been once a California CNA will have any bearing with CA BRN's...

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

  18. Recent Philippines BSN grad, also US citizen, looking to return to US.

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

    Our theory and clinicals are concurrent. It's just that the cases within those clinicals sometimes cannot be. We have our didactics and then have clinical rotations within the same semester. For...

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

    steppybay thank you so much for you replies. I'll review all of them and that list of previous threads carefully. There's a lot of reading to do! I'm wondering if there's any way here on allnurses to...

  20. Recent Philippines BSN grad, also US citizen, looking to return to US.

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

    You're right, it's the law. And I understand it is the law and therefore a technicality we can't do much about. I was just curious as to the real reason behind it since I also understand that that law...

    mpgj83 replied to mpgj83's topic in Nurse Registration

    Thank you for that info, JustBeachyNurse. Unfortunately for me that will pose problematic. I was told by our dean that this would still be considered concurrent, because the next semester had not yet...
