In Favor of the Removal of the CGFNS
 

Removing the CGFNS here in Virginia will be beneficial for the state because it will offer an opportunity for foreign nurses to take the NCLEX only and possibly increase the number of highly qualified nurses here.  The CGFNS is just another stressor.... talk about test anxiety and financially.  Therefore, I agree NCLEX ONLY!!! Get rid of the CGFNS!
