Anyone who took the NLN can you please tell me....

It took me 2 weeks, but the school gets the result within 24 hours. Most nursing departments don't want to let you know this, so you don't flood their offices.

I took mine way in advance to leave room just in case I failed. Since I wasn't one of the one's waiting for my score to be factored into my application that semester they told me the next day what I got. 2 weeks later I got the results and had passed.

I think you have good grades the thing is that you don't ever know for sure these things because you don't know who else is applying with you.

Good luck!

My daughters took 2 weeks but mine got lost in the mail even though we took them together. We had flooding up here and were displaced and moving that same weekend so I am sure the forwarding just got mixed up. I knew I did great and NLN was awesome about getting me a copy out quick!

Good luck with the test!

How long it took to get the results in the mail? I know lots of schools take it by computer but of course my school did it by book. Does anyone know how long it takes to get the results in the mail? I am a mess worrying. My school does it by NLN scores and the grades from our 4 pre reqs. My practice exam I got a 112 but the actual test was so much harder the vocab was out of this world. My pre req grades are English A, Psychology A+, Biology (A&P) B and Science (chem & physics) B- . What do you think my chances are?? Thanks in advance for any insight you can offer. Keri

Hello,

I got my results exactly in one week. I took it on a Saturday and I received my results the following Saturday. Good luck!!
