Taking the NLE 10 years after graduation

[Ziline]

Hello,

I finished my BSN in 2010 and I am contemplating taking the Philippine Nursing Licensure Exam in 2020. I never took the boards because my family at that time moved to another country. Is this still possible? If so, how can I best prepare for the exam? I would appreciate your insight into this.

Thank you!

Hi Everyone,

Is this thread still active? I am trying to get some information and assistance as I lost also my clinical cases after I graduated last 2011 and I haven't taken the exam yet. I'm not able to submit my application for the Nursing Board exam as the main requirement is the original copy of clinical cases.

Hope someone can help me here. Thank you in advance. God Bless.

almost the same case, graduated 2013, took board last Nov 2023 and made it.

One funny thing is hindi tinignan ung cases ko. Although inasikaso ko sya at pina notarize ko na and all, hindi sya hinigi nung PRC officer nung nag apply ako for boards.

Kung checheck mo rin ung PRC website, hindi kasama sa requirement ung cases.

Wow, this is the only thing I saw online that actually explains the same situation I am in. I took my board exams in 2011 in manila and did not pass then did a different career change. Now married to an Australian husband, thinking if I can still have a career in nursing here in australia. All I can think of at the moment is if I can still pass my NLE in the PH so that I can maybe start on applying to be an RN in AUS.

Anyone ever tried to retake the PNLE after years of not taking/failing it? Would you mind sharing your experience and requirements on how to do so?

Hi! Good day to everyone.. I would to ask query with regards to my current situation.

And if I am to get my TOR, what should TOR  should I get the one from my nursing school or the school where I finished my qualifying course.

Hello. I have posted 2 queries here twice already, different years. 

 

Finally, I took the board exam last year November 2023 ( that's 15 years after graduating BSN 2008)

 

I passed! Took my oath January 13th 2024 and now a Registered Nurse.  I am currently working as a Dialysis Nurse. 

 

When I passed my application last year at PRC QC, they did not asked for my cases at all considering that I am already a retaker, they did not even asked for my marriage certificate but you need to create a LERIS account.

I think you need to get in touch with the PRC for your concern. Your case is not that isolated, I have heard of Nurses who took teaching units, and passed both boards.
