Help!! 4 weeks and I've heard nothing!!!


I took the 8 yr- retake as I took off many years to raise my four children. I took a 4 week online Saunders course passed every quiz and test, took a CAT NCLEX type online test and it shut off at 75 and I passed. I took the CA NCLEX RN on June 16th it shut off at 75 or 76. I thought it was hard but that I must have passed because I certainly would not have tanked so badly to have it shut off so early! Well everyday I check the BON site nothing. After two weeks I called and she asked if I checked the site and I said yes, daily and was told my record was COMPLETE!! Two more weeks have passed. Today is 4 weeks to the day, I called and he said my record was complete and I should hear soon. That was it! Should I assume I actually failed because it has taken so long? Getting very despondent!

The BRN can take anything from 3 days to 6 weeks for results and if your file is complete then you should hear soon. Hang in there and good luck


Oh and welcome to the site

You might want to post about your problem in the NCLEX forum.

As I said in a different thread... I called them again today and a gentleman let me know they were very behind on 8 year re-takes and I had passed. I just now received a call from the CA BRN to let me know I passed, apologize for my very long wait (the person in charge of 8 yr re-takes has been out) and that my license no. will be on the site by tomorrow am. Can you believe that? Well I am one very happy 8 yr retake RN !!
