Ca BRN Website License check?

Published

Sorry admins if this is the wrong forum section;

I took my nclex last thursday, Oct 3, finished the exam at 2 pm and went on the Ca BRN website, apparently it went down on oct 3 for an update and the license verification just re-opened today Oct 8, I got the good pop-up / PVT, but i'm still not listed under the registry. Anybody know how long it usually takes to see your name on it? Thanks.

apsandy-I got the cc page first time I tested, and got a letter 2 weeks later that I failed.

Anyone know of anyone that got to the CC page for the PVT and still pass by any chance? This wait is horrible. Im really thinking I prob failed but waiting for it in writing. I called the BRN multiple times to talk to different ppl to see if I could get a hint of my results but I didnt. Some lady said the license should appear within 72 hours online.. and the other lady said there is no way the license will appear so fast with this new system. -__- still waiting

@apsandy - from what I've read on this and other boards, the good pop-up is 99.9% accurate but going to the CC page does not always mean that you've failed - it usually does mean that but there are instances reported on this board where folks got the cc page and did pass. Don't re-register until you receive your official notice and good luck.

@kelly i passed :) got the official word but still waiting on the license # to show up.

Thanks guys.. I called the BRN again and the lady this time pretty much said I should send in an application to reapply... i asked if she could see my results and she said I did not pass...

Also, for those of u that are getting the good pop up just be patient she said if its not letting you register she is pretty confident it still means u passed. hang in there.

My name posted on BRN!!!! Tested 10/9

@chownykRN13 Congrats! Any tips on how you prepped the second time? I just found out I failed after talking to the BRN... frustrated and upset.

I know that this is probably beating a dead horse way past into the afterlife, but has ANYBODY heard ANYTHING about getting the good pop-up but still failing? My exam stopped at 75 questions but there is absolutely no way that I passed that test, and I got the good pop-up after going home. I have been googling frantically looking for false positive reports

@etamuro No, i have browsed and searched tons of forums especially on this website. There are reports of fale negatives but NO false positives that I have found. Just make sure your status is marked as "delivery successful". If this is the case then congrats !

@apsandy

wait for the letter to come in the mail, see what areas you scored above/near/below passing and focus on your weaknesses, BUT still review the areas you scored above passing. What resources are you using?

I used my online ATI ...took all the practice tests ..also used Saunders nclex review ..... just focus and review ... it just sucks having to pay another $350 to retake

@nursephillyphil Thanks Phil! I have been following this thread alot while studying for my nclex and I am glad I can now join the saga of the CA BRN board thread haha

I don't think many people walk out feeling like they passed.if you got the good pop up I wouldn't worry too much.never heard of getting the pop up and failing. It's pretty reliable.
