SEPTEMBER 2012 CPNRE Exam

Published

to all nurses out there who are planning to take the September 2012 CPNRE, please post any concerns, issues and suggestions in this thread. I'm also planning to take the test on September, I'm an internationally educated nurse and I need to learn a lot about nursing in Canada. Any advice from previous exam takers would be very much appreciated.

Me too... I believe in one :)

Well, the exam was kinda tricky and I had a lot of distructions. I was really shocked when I saw the people lining up for 300 meters long. I'm USA nurse and the organization part of the NCLEX exam way high than the Canadian one. Hopefully, I passed.

Are you typing from a phone? I'm not really sure of what you've said other than you think the NCLEX is better. If that is how you feel as an American why are you wanting to work in Canada?

Dear Fiona59,Unfortunately, I have been experiencing only the negative aspects of new entry nursing registration in Canada. I'm very positive that many internationally educated nurses in Canada have been experiencing the same problems as of mine. Almost every IEN has to wait 1-3 years for nursing credentials evaluation. The case workers in regulatory bodies are very unprofessional sometimes even rude. As an example, I took my NCLEX exam with other six students in private rooms with minimal waiting time vs 3000 students with 3 hrs waiting time. These are the only my personal experiences. Please do not get me wrong and Don't ask why I am wanting to work in Canada. Thanks.

The exam was fair enough for me. So true that most of the questions are tricky but covers the basics of nursing practice. We just have to hope for the best, keep up the faith guys! We just have to wait patiently for the results, keep ourselves busy.

Dear Fiona, we really do appreciate your responses but I find you intimidating even the first time I got a reply from you. I am an IEN like Bek and do empathize with her. Whether IEN or not, we all have our opinions about the exam and the process it takes to be registered here in Canada. Respect is all we ask. Thanks.

I took Sep 12 CNO RPN Exam. Recentally, I got a letter from CNO and ask me for - Re:Application for a General Class Certificate of Registration - RPN ( "Application"). Did anyone get the same letter as me? What should I do for? Thanks!

What specifically was written on your letter? Almost everyone got a letter from CNO regarding the changes that will be implemented on January 2013.
