If you’re planning to work as a nurse in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, you might want to take your Prometric Saudi Council Exam here in the Philippines. Although it can be taken when you’re already employed in KSA, you might want to consider taking it at the comfort of your own country. Most agencies advised nurses to take the exam but most find it difficult to make an appointment online as they have no idea where to start.
Procedure:
- Visit www.prometric.com.
- Under Test Takers, click the dropdown “Academic, Professional, Government & Corporate.
- Scroll down and choose Saudi Commission for Health Specialties.
- You will be directed to a new page, the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties Testing. Click on the “Get Started” box.
- You will be directed again to a new page. In the “Program Name” dropdown, choose Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (non elig). Choose Philippines as your country and click next.
- You will be directed to a new window. Click on “Schedule an exam”. You will be directed to information Review and will see a “For testing outside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia only”. Click Next.
- You will be directed to the Privacy Policy Review, select “I agree” and click next.
- You will be direted to Exam Selection. Click the dropdown menu and choose Nurse Technician. Click next.
- In the Available Test Sites, type in Philippines. 2 address will appear, but they are just the same. Choose any and click “schedule an exam”.
- In the Date and Time selection, find available seat that suits you (you may also choose what time you want to take the exam).
- You will be directed to another window and you will type some additional information. Type the required information including your name, address, birth date, e-mail address, government identification card, etc.
- You will proceed to another window and you will be typing the necessary information under the Payment Information. You can use another person’s Visa Card if you don’t have one.
- After that, a final window will appear and show your registration list, you have to print it. A confirmation email will be sent to you after registration.
I took the Prometric exam last March. The test was easier than the Local Nursing Licensure Exams (70 items). You don’t have to bring anything except the print out and the ID you put in the registration (PRC, Driver’s License or passport). You will be asked to leave all your belongings, including every single piece in your pocket and wristwatch. You will be given instructions (no looking anywhere while taking the exam, except the monitor of your computer), and proceed to having a trial exam before the real Saudi Council Exam for Nurses. After finishing the exam, your result will be printed and given to you.
Again, the questions are easy but you might want to review on the basics first. The computations are no brainer; it required no aid of a calculator or complex formula. Sometimes, the answers can be found on the questions, diagrams or graphs.
For directions of Ateneo Professional School, just search in Google Maps by typing Ateneo Professional Schools Philippines.
That’s it. Good luck on your Prometric Saudi Council Exam!
