Thank you for your answers and your advices. You helped me a lot! Let's see what my future will look like :) I will do my best!

Thank you JustBeachyNurse and nutella. I will visit the CGFNS website. How many are the clinical hours? In my bachelor study I am at least 4 weeks in all main areas. Is community healt like home care? Visit people to dress their wounds for example? I have to spend 6 weeks in "home care", I dont know how it's called in the US. I tried to find out what RN learn specifically in their studies, but I didnt find anything - maybe you could help me? Like a schedule of all 3 years? Best wishes!

And If I pass the NCLEX I can work as a RN then?

Why I wont get a visa If I get a job at a hospital? As a LPN for example? I would work there and nevertheless I wont get a work visa? So I have to pass NCLEX in any way - RN or LPN its not important?

Hello everybody, my name is meike, 21 y.o., and I'm from germany. Atm I'm studying nursing which is new in germany, usually its a training which takes 3 years. My wish and my dream is to move to Irvine after I finished my exam. I've been to SF and Irvine a few years ago and I felt like my home's in the US, especially in Irvine. I did many researches and I recognized that it's even with the NCLEX and the TOEFL hard to work as a RN if you've a german degree in nurisng. I found out that LPN/LVN are on the same level of nursing like german nurses and I asked myself (and now YOU): Do you think it's possible that I'll work as a LPN/LVN? And do you think I have to do the NCLEX for that also? If you have any experiences or if you know something that may help me please answer - it will help me a lot! Best wishes, Meike PS: Sorry If I wrote someting wrong, I didnt write/talk English a lot after my Abitur
