CA NCLEX Takers...How Long For Results?

TheCommuter, BSN, RN · May 20, 2008

I took NCLEX-PN for California in late 2005, and received the results in 12 days.

Thread moved to the NCLEX Forum since if one is testing or has tested, they are no longer a student.

Best of luck to you.

All depends on where you live and whether you have a SSN or not. If not then looking at over 4 weeks to get results. If SSN then average is between 3-10 days although can take longer

There are many factors:

is this your first time ? did you just gradaute ? is your file "complete" ?

for first time test takers, that just graduated and files are complete i have (personally) seen it to take up to 28 days to show up online..

3 of my freinds from class took it the SAME day at the same place and one girl got hers in 9 days and the other (2) figured they failed, since hers was up and not thiers but they fianklly saw their names on day 17. sooooo

now if you are a re-peat test taker , yeah then 3-10 days.

what about if you're not from the US, how long will it take if you're a first time tester or not?

I did answer this in post 5. If not from the US then you are looking at anything from 3-4 weeks upwards. All depends on mail and Ca usually post after 2 weeks

it usually takes 3-4 weeks, but if you're from california and have an SS as they say, you get it earlier. i took the exam on may 5, and got the results on May 12, so i waited for only a week. :yeah:

Well it's been 27 days since I took the NCLEX in San Francisco. Yes I have a SS#. All my classmates had SS# and all of us have had to wait 3-4 weeks. A few waited more than a month. It is frustrating, that daily mailbox trip because you just want to know. You heart pounds on the trip to the mailbox but hey, pass or fail, I just want to know! I feel my life is in limbo. I have read many posts where people say CA NCLEX results take about 2 weeks with all your paperwork and etc. I just wanted to say that we all have had complete paperwork (we can't graduate without everything complete) and SS# and ALL of us have had to wait 3-4 weeks and it's awful!!! the good news is that so far no one in my class has failed the exam. Then I get insecure because what if I'm the first??? I had 109 questions and I know I got the last one right for sure but I still have my doubts. I felt pretty good leaving the exam but as you wait and wait you feel more insecure, there were lots of meds I never heard of!!! Tomorrow will be exactly 4 weeks - 28 days!!! aaawww! :no:
