2003 NCLEX INVITATIONAL - BOSTON , MA
On Friday September 26, NCLEX held its NCLEX Invitational meeting. The
Hammond Law Group was able to glean a number of interesting developments:
There are 204 test centers in the U.S.
International NCLEX testing will not begin sooner than January 1, 2005.
To provide input on International NCLEX testing centers a special email
address has been set-up:
nclexinfo@ncsbn.org
A recent posting on the NCLEX website details the Council's plan to develop
international testing facilities. It can be accessed here:

US Nurses pass the exam at about a 90% pass rate. International nurses pass
rate is around 57%. The test will become more difficult effective second
quarter 2004.
