About the Nurse Licensure Exam (NLE)

  • Many overseas employers and licensing bodies ask for your Philippine license, and then have their own exams — for example NCLEX in the US or the NMC tests in the UK. Super Tutor doesn't cover those overseas exams.
  • PRC board exams are taken in the Philippines (PRC has also run special LET sittings abroad).
  • Use licensed recruitment agencies registered with the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW).
