No, candidates always were allowed up to 3 takes on the OSCE from the start. I think the update just changed the duration they need to wait between takes. IIRC, before now the wait needed to take the...
A year at least. But that was when nursing wasn't in the SOL (Shortage Occupation List). You people are most definitely lucky now that you don't have to wait as
The British Medical Association and Royal College of Nursing are trying to persuade the home secretary to exclude the NHS from the impending skills charge, because this doesn't just affect nurses and...
There really is no secret to passing the CBT, but if you do put in the work, you'll definitely get results. Many of my colleagues here at work underestimated the CBT both before and during the actual...
NMC normally don't inform candidates that they are in the assessment queue already. You'd have to go out of your way and contact (phone/email) them for them to tell you. They should put in the...
This is true. You cannot just put the word "present" when NMC is asking for a concrete date. If in doubt, put in the date you'll send out the form. With regards to sending out an email or by post,...
Adult nursing is pretty much the only nursing career most people applying could qualify for. Could you tell us why you are confused about choosing the type of exam? Do you meet the qualifications for...
Exchange rates are quite low right now (GBP to PHP) so it might save you a few hundred pesos while the post-Brexit economy hasn't recovered yet--if it ever
No they don't provide free copies, but you should be able to borrow a copy from any Trust library fairly easily. Once you get a list of text references from Northampton, the library stockpiles many of...
I think you'll find a lot of people here have taken and passed the CBT already. If you can decode NMC's blueprint then go ahead, but if not then don't bother. The Royal Marsden manual is a good place...
In case there are misconceptions about this, the issuance of CoS is not dependent on whether you have your decision letter or not (and the NMC in general). It's totally up to the hospital that is...
Yes, it does, and my friend have indeed going through the identity check on the same day as the OSCE. However there are some of them that are waiting for NMC to clear the checks and for them to...
I see. Several of my colleagues here have experience working in the Middle East and NMC didn't decline their application, so I don't see why your case would be an exception. However, a few of them...
I personally don't know of anyone who was rejected by NMC. I feel there's a hidden question within your question. What do you mean exactly by "rejected by NMC"? I'm not sure what to say, but I think...
I don't think NMC will mind these arrangement but try asking them just the same so you know what's allowed and what isn't. Does PRC even allow you to courier 2 registration verification envelopes in...
IIRC the police clearance is sent directly to the NMC and they're the ones who'll upload it. I think it simply means that the clearance should not have been more than 3 months old by the time NMC...
If that's what NMC said then I guess you can trust you're already on the assessment phase. If you've already read back in this topic then you probably already saw that many people who experienced that...
Well, it's true I'm working as a nurse now here in the UK. I feel kinda bad not going back here after everything, so it's fine. I'm always happy to answer questions regarding the process. As for...
