Hi! I took my boards in california on Monday June 18th and I just contacted my college to find out if my transcripts have been sent to the state yet. They haven't! I am freaked. Do you know of ANY way in california to find out results?

They won't finalize your results until they have your complete application packet. Livescan, transcripts, photo...background check...all of it. Until that happens you wait, I'm sorry to say. In California they let us sit for the exam before they really know we are eligible and then wait after the test until they determine if we are. I really think this is a bit backwards. I know if most students realized this they would much rather wait a few extra weeks to take the test than have to wait a few extra weeks after they have tested to get the results.

I'm not sure why they do it this way in California, other than the sheer volume of applications they must have to process. From what I have been able to ascertain the BRN is not a very well staffed dept. Not that their staff isn't good, just that there aren't enough of them. Try getting through on their phone system sometime. I have spent many, many hours trying to speak to a human in the past when it became apparent that my IP and my Candidate bulletin had been lost somewhere between them and me. They work very hard but really need more support staff.

The best you can do is get your school to get the transcripts and all other info needed sent in. Call the BRN and find out what is missing from your packet and make sure yourself it gets there. Then they can start verifying the app and you will be closer to a resolution. Best of luck to you!!! I feel for you!
