A little Guide to NMC Application Process for PHRN (Ex-Saudi PHRN)
From Eligibility to Full Application and Assessment Stage only
Hello reader! Yes you… Hehe.. I guess you are one of those (ex-saudi) nurses who wants to continue their nursing profession in UK. That’s why you open this blog… Kekekekeke… Peace! Just kidding. Anyway, whoever you are, I hope this post will somehow help you, or your aspiring UKRN friends or relatives on how they will prepare and process their NMC Application and Assessment to get invitation for OSCE.
Forgive
my grammar!!! Kekekke… (Nakachamba lang po ;P)
As
much as I want to write this in 100% Tagalog, I think there are some other
ex-saudi non-PHRNs who at some point will stumble on this post, so yeah…I’ll
write in English ft. Tagalog :P hehehe..
(assuming ako, charot!)

Let’s GO!!!
1. IELTS or OET??
Ahmmm,
OET?? IELTS?? – bahlakajan! 😁😁
Before you create an account in NMC, please
make sure you have met their ENGLISH LANGUAGE REQUIREMENT!
> IELTS
UKVI (Listening/Reading/Speaking = 7
/ Writing = 6.5 )
> OET (Listening/Reading/Speaking /Writing = B )
or check NMC’s
list here: (might be applicable to you)
NOTE: If you took OET, you still need to
take UKVI IELTS for UK Visa application, but don’t worry you will only need a
band score of 4 in all subtest. 👍 (keribels na yun) Estimated Cost? OET: Php 25K
/ UKVI: Php 14K – so if you want
to hit two birds with one stone, you can Go for UKVI!
(In
my case.. Nachambahan ko OET 😂God is good.. Dasal lang~ Manalig! Im
still hoping they will have deliberation also for IELTS Speaking band score like
what they did in Writing. Pray
tau mga besh sana babaan din nila! 😃
