Changes to the NCLEX and IELTS for Nurses

This is a repost of an article from Allvoices.com (user:stephaniegomez) about the changes of the NCLEX and IELTS - a must read for nurses.

Here's a summary:

Passing rate has changed from -0.16 logits to 0.00 logits. This change will take effect from April 1, 2013 until March 31, 2016.

The IELTS score required is still dependent on the institution and the state. Better check it with the institution first prior to taking the exam. You can read more about the IELTS requirements at http://rayearthnurse.blogspot.com/2013/11/ielts-requirements-in-philippines.html.
