Any Philippine RNs who moved to the USA with a K/Spouse Visa?

Douglas... ...Chinook agrees...get ready for the Pharma questions on the NCLEX...Saunders will help in that regard.

That must have been an expensive review course...having to fly to 'Pinas. Why didn't your wife take a Kaplan review course locally in Texas?

A bit expensive overall (But, Flights were Frequent Flyer Miles),,,

However, since she was out of school for 4 years, she needed a more intensive review then Kaplan provides here in the USA.

The full session is 12 weeks in the PI vs 4 days in Austin here. And about the same cost.

In reference to NLE vs NCLEX... My wife thought the NLE was harder,,, which she passed on the first attempt in 2007.

The Kaplan review course in the Philippines sounds like a real bargain. I didn't realize that they offered a 12-week course.

Hey, our wives are batchmates! Chinook also passed the NLE in 2007. She took it in Cebu and passed on the first try.

On a scale of 0-100, how stressful is the job of an RN? As much I like the "glamor" of my wife to have title of RN, I really don't want her all stressed out working the midnight to noon shift at the hospital, and then come home to me looking like this .

Peace.

Works nights (7p-7a) at telemetry medsurg....i find it stressful that's why im working on getting my license in physical therapy so i can go prn for nursing and full time with PT! However, everyone's different your wife might love nursing
