I'm also a professional particularly a licensed ECE. I just wonder about the recent nursing board. It's a burden for them, burden for other registered nurses, problems on employment either local or abroad, and also an alarm for other professionals.
The time I've taken the board, while having the exam I came to think about what kind of professional regulation do we have. It's a professional regulation but they themselves doesn't have the quality and regualtion for the exam.
On my experience (ECE License Board), they gave a bonus for a question which they thought the given data where incomplete. But actually there is a certain principle behind it and can be answered even the data is incomplete. So many questions with misspelled words, wrong item asked, wrong units, typographical errors, etc. Damn! It's a professional regulation!
On the results, my scores were lower than I expected. Specially math! I aimed to be a topnotcher that time and until now I can't accept the result. I studied hard, which almost made me frustrated and sacrificed everything. Every minute was crucial, I even study while on a bus. I read several books, e-books, surf the net, magazines, etc...which might have at least relevance to the possible questions in the exam.
To think of the hardships of the nursing students who took the board last June, they gave all their best! Taking again the said board is unnecessary! Admit it guys, fellow professionals, once the board is over, the things that we had acquired and read were all gone though some retains. It would be hard for them to prepare for it again if that happens.
What will happen for retaking the exam? A student who fails then retaking it and passed? A student who passed then retaking it and failed? What the heck!!!
Being strict for the employment of this batch of nurses? What the hell! It's unfair! The PRC should be reformed!
How did the leakage happened? Why there were leakages? Pointing out the culprits is one major step but it must not end there! They should be more strict and be more professional and have some quality exams! I'm a QC Engineer and what always on my mind is being ahead of time. Answering the problem is not just pointing out the cause but also preventing it to happen again and being ahead before a posssible problem would occur.
