C
Feedback:
To take the examination again, the nurse should take a refresher nursing course. The nurse does not have to repeat the basic nursing program to take the examination again. The nurse should not attempt the test in another state just to become eligible to take the examination. Practicing as an assistant for a year will not make the nurse eligible for attempting the examination again.
