Does anyone keep checking....

FinallyFinished! · Jul 14, 2006

I definately kept checking the Ohio Board of Nursing's website starting the day of the test. Most of my classmates found out in under 24 hours if they had passed. My name STILL isn't there and I took it Wednesday. I checked on Pearson obsessively from 6AM this morning until 10:30 when I found out that I passed. That was the best 7.95 I've ever spent for my sanity!! I think that most the people from my nursing school were the same way. The amount of time that we have all put into this is huge for one small test!!

When I took my test on a Thursday 6/28 I kept frantically checking pearson vue to see if results were up. I finally put a timer on and kept setting it longer and longer so i could control my checking. They should let you know right away . exactly 48 hours on the dot I found out. What a huge relief. I feel your pain.

I wish i could've come back earlier this afternoon to tell you guys that you can call your BON and ask for an "active" license...once you get that...that means you passed!...I called today and got the good news...but i guess you gals should find out no later than tomorrow...make sure you guys check early before 6pm...pearson website is going down after 6pm tomorrow!...so I pray that you all get your results before 6pom...they will be back up on sunday after six pm...take care guys...

If this gives you any idea of how often I checked it:

I can tell you (in my case) that it was exactly 48 hours after test time and not 47 hours and 59 minutes. :)

I'm currently also doing the same thing. As the other posts say, I've heard that it's exactly 48 hours, which sounds somewhat silly to me.. It's 1230a here and I'm checking again at 1a, but most likely it will be up at around 10:30 exactly around the time I finished.

I finished at the 75 questions and I was fairly nervous... So, I either did really well or very poorly. I don't really understand how the computer decides how you'll do with 75 questions. I'm increasingly thinking that between the CAT, the $200 Pierson fee, and the required 48 hours.. NCLEX is absolutely absurd.

Hang in there. We'll find out if we're nurses soon.

The pearson Vue quick results? Even though I know I have to wait 48 hours i keep checking to see results. I took the test only 28 hours ago. I think I have developed a serious case of OCD in the past 28 hours.

I even kept calling when I found out that I passed!! I couldn't believe that I passed, because I called two days earlier than I was supposed to, and thought it was another person's number.

I know I asked you this in a previous post, but what state are you in? I ask this because there may be some, such as in California, that will have to wait a month or two, no matter what. Or what creative scenerio did you use to get your results? THis would certainly take the stress off of those that have to wait for so freaking long!! Thanks for sharing.

I'm in MA and should find out today through pearson Vue quick results if I passed or not.
