Help!!!!

by Diva Nurse Dani Premium Member

I'm trying to figure out if there is a problem with my application for Nclex. I sent the papers to Continental Testing in Lagrange on 5/26/06, I applied to Pearson Vue online 5/30/06, my certifed mail reciept states that Continental Testing recieved my paperwork on 5/30/06.

I haven't recieved my ATT letter yet and I'm getting worried. I've called both Pearson Vue and Continental Testing. Pearson Vue says to wait for state to finish processing and that they would let me know if anything is wrong (or missing). Continental Testing won't even talk to anyone regarding the status of your application.

Any suggestions? I have classmates who are already registered to take the test early part of July. I start my new job July 10th, and was trying to avoid starting board pending.

Any help (or suggestions) will be greatly appreciated!

I registered for Pearson on 5/10 and sent in my paperwork on 5/28 and just got my ATT today! I spoke with Pearson yesterday who told me that I needed to contact the state to find out my status. I called them yesterday but no one got back to me. I just got lucky this afternoon and found the ATT in my email. Keep patient, I'm sure you'll hear from them soon!!!

I am in Illinois as well. I also start my job 7/10 and am scared because I too don't have my ATT yet. I mailed my paperwork to Continental Testing Services on 5/31 and registered with Pearson the same day. My friends who have registered online have their letter already. Argh..
Where will you be working?

I'll be working at Christ hospital in Oak Lawn. Where will you be working?
I called Continental and the woman who cares for the paperwork, on her voicemail states "she cannot return calls regarding the status of your application". What kind of madness is that? This whole process has me in knots!

I registered for Pearson online, but then in the state of CT we had a separate form that we had to mail to the state themselves, which had to have a recent picture of us as well as be notarized. The big hold up that I had getting my ATT was that our school didn't mail out our confirmation of passing until last Monday. I think almost everyone in my class got their ATT today, at least everyone that I've spoken with, and we graduated on 5/10!!!

Give it til the end of the week, and if you haven't heard anything by then, I would just be persistent!

As far as the NCLEX goes, I am testing on 7/18 and feel like I'm going to be sick! I can't sleep, and all I can think about is review questions that I am getting wrong! The next 4 weeks are going to be hell!!!!!

Ah, good ol' Susan at Continental. I called for help with the forms and she never called me back at all...

I'll be working at Northern Illinois Medical Center in McHenry. (Provided I get that darn ATT...)
