Just Graduated in the Philippines want to take NCLEx in California
Thanks guys for all your answers. i know i'm not eligible to be a nurse in navy because i don't have license yet and i don't think that i will get my license really soon since i'm here in California. But if i join in navy let say start from the bottom then it will probably help me to get what i really want. If i serve them they might grant me financial support to go back school at the same time I'm earning $? As of now i don't have job and i think it will be hard for me to get one because they will looking for experience. Do you think it is best for me to get to navy or not? i think thats the only option i have? it will help my skills and knowledge which is good thing. what you guys think? :)

Just Graduated in the Philippines want to take NCLEx in California
Hi, I just found this site and I'm thinking if someone can answer my question. I graduated on April 2014 in the Philippines but I did not take the local exam since I'm US citizen. Now, I'm here in California for a month now and I was thinking if I'm able to take the NCLEX here. I know the current issues about OB and MedSurg that the cases should be taken same time as you taking your lectures of OB and MedSurg. I have 3 cases of OB for Immediate newborn and I have 4 cases of Surgery (2 minor and 2 major). Those cases are taken the same on my lectures. I know that I need more cases and I do have, however my other cases are not taken same time with my Ob and MedSurg class. I complete the 5 cases of Ob ( 5 for actual delivery and 5 for Immediate newborn) I complete the 5 cases of MedSurg (5 for minor and 5 for major). I know there a lot of issues going on to those graduated outside US and I was just thinking why the others are eligible to take the NCLEx in California though they also graduated outside US. I really want to take NClex in California because i'm tired moving in different places. Another one if I can not take NClex then can i take LVN exam with my BSN diploma? or i still need to go back school and study? Lastly, my last option if i join Us Navy with my BSN no license can i practice nursing in their field? or i need to study again like my BSN diploma is useless?
