CA 45-day retake policy???

[cianne76]

is this true??? was trying to print a request for reapply/repeat examination and it mentioned something about the 45-day retake provision for the NCLEX-RN exam visit the NCSBN website and found this.So i guess CA now have 45-day retake policy instead of the old 90 days. please verify!!!

45-Day Retake Policy The NCSBN retake policy allows candidates to retake their examination 45 days after administration of their examination. Candidates who have applied for licensure with a participating board of nursing will be permitted to take the NCLEX® examination eight times a year, but no more than once in any 45-day period, unless limited to fewer retakes by the desired jurisdiction of licensure.

Note: The following boards of nursing do NOT participate in the 45-day retake period. Candidates are encouraged to contact these boards of nursing for their policy on NCLEX Examination retakes: Georgia-RN, Guam, Puerto Rico and Washington.
