I am a Pediatric nurse trained in the UK (RN child and BSC pediatric oncology nursing) now living in Los Angeles.
The California nursing board has just said that I need to retrain as my qualification is not valid for licensure in California.
I am looking into courses to retrain but it seems a lengthy process and frustrating that I need to go back to the start... and the complete start as it seems my high school grades are also not good enough so I need to do a GED test before I can do the pre requisites before even commencing nurse training.

Has anyone else had problems like this?
