clarification on att definition - a query

hello

i have a simple question regarding atts...i would just like to know if the validity for ATT which they say usually is 90 days, the valid examination period for the examinee? or is it the period one is allowed to schedule an exam date? my worry is just that i might not feel well prepared in 3 mos time. well, i havent submitted anything officially yet, no toefl yet either. im just wondering if i should review first or start the paperworks already. (will apply to njbon)

thanks for replying!:p

I think the longer you wait the harder it is, so waiting past the 90 days in my mind is not a good idea. Only you know how well you study and learn, but I truely feel the longer you wait the harder it will be. I gave myself 3 weeks, not 3 months to prepare and that worked for me.

I'm from CA and from what I understand the ATT is good for 1 year. The IP permit is void after 6 months or after failing the NCLEX. I got my ATT in mid December and took NCLEX beginning of February. I don't think I ever would have felt fully prepared but I did my best and passed! Good luck to you!

Depends on the state that you are writing the exam for, the majority have a 90 day open window to test in. And that only.

In response to the origian question, the ATT expires on the day that it states, if good for 90 days, then it expires after that time so it means that you must have the exam actually completed by then, not just scheduled.

If you were to look at it the other way, if you show up at a testing center after it expires, then they are not going to let you in.

If it expires, then you will be paying a licensing fee once again as well as for the exam all over again.

------------------------------

Now to specific questions for you:

This is the reason that we always state that one should never register with Pearson-Vue until they know that they are ready to test. 90 days is not a long period for some.

Please be aware that you are going to need to complete the CES, done thru CGFNS, before the NJ BON will even look at your application for licensure. You are looking at about four months on average for that to get done.

Please check out the International Forum for more specifics on getting licensed in the US and in this specific state.
