Are you trying to pass the RN boards. and for what state ??

The NCLEX exam is based on Nat'l Council of State Boards of Nursing..as I guess you know...I was under the impression they forced you to take a certified refresher course, in your situation..

I passed my PN boards..which I am sure are way easier than RN boards.

I had not practiced in several years, so I used Lippincott's study guide, and the Chicago Pharmacology Review.
The CD rom included with both allowed me to be more portable, and also mimics the rate adaptive testing.

I just did my best to memorize everything I could..and also got a nursing PDR to review.

Also..your state board should provide you with a written results, so you can review your strong and weak
areas ??
Regards..

I have a question for anyone who might know... I took boards on the 31st of December in Cali, is there a delay in receiving the results on DCA website because of the holiday, or if you passed should the results be up already? I'm in panic mode here!!! I thought that if in fact I did pass, I would see it posted by today. Second, I was told by several people that if the computer turns off after you answered a question "correctly", thenyou most likely passed? Has anyone else been told or experienced that myth? The computer turned off after I answered #85 and I know for a fact I answered it right! I guess I'm just looking for some encouragement. I know if I don't see my name posted by Monday...well, you know.

Did you use Pearson Vue ?? If so, you can pay 8-10 bucks to find out now..If you are waiting on the CA Nursing
boards WS for the answer, mine did not show up on the FL Nursing board WS for over a week.

Congrats, and I just said a little prayer for you.

Thanks, I dont think Cali participates in the quick results. I'll log into Pearsonvue now. Thanks for the prayer, I need 'em.
