Can you go to your state website and use their license verification, if they have it? That is how I found out, and it only took from Monday morning when I took boards to Thursday at 3 am while I was at work to find out I had passed. I would suggest trying that, anytime a license is active here in CA, you can find it online.

Good luck!!!

THANK YOU Marti & Legs - it feels pretty great. I went around ALL weekend saying... "I AM a nurse... " :)

It's pretty cool... and almost unbelievable.

I took my test on Wednesday and they told me I have to wait a month to know the results. As soon as the computer shut off I started crying (85 q's) I just know I failed and the stress is killing me. The Alabama Board doesnt participate in any website verification and I have called the telephone number but all that shows is my temp license. Anyone know how long from test time til it would show up on the verification hotline?
