Done at 75. How long do we wait for results in California?

achurley · Jul 8, 2016

I took my NCLEX-RN in CA on 6/28 as well and have not seen anything up on the Breeze either, so I feel your frustration in this waiting process when other candidates can find out in 48 hours. My exam shut off at 75 and after 24 hrs I did the PV trick and got the good pop-up. One thing to add is that another student in my cohort took her exam on 6/29 and got a letter in the mail from the BRN two days ago (7 days post exam) that she had not passed NCLEX (she also got the bad pop-up when doing the PV trick). This letter is called CPR (Candidate performance Report) you can read more about it here Candidate Performance Report | NCSBN, as it is something I did not know about until recently. For now, my understanding is that until your school sends your conferred degree to the BON and it is processed you will not see your license number up on the Breeze. For example, my school FedEx'd our final transcipts on 6/27 with a tracking number and they were received in Sacremento on 6/28 - according to the current processing times for NCLEX results it could take 2-4 weeks for us to hear anything. Do you know when your school sent final transcripts with your degree conferred? I believe this will likely factor in to when you see anything up on the Breeze! This may require you contacting the registrar at your university.

As hard as it is, feel confident for now that you have not recived a CPR and got the good pop-up, until you are notfied otherwise! Cheers.

Jello!

So I took mine here in SoCal on Jun 21... nothing yet either. It kicked me out a 75 questions. I haven't done the Pearson trick, haven't bothered with it because I read here that it takes your money either way and also I don't have an expired creditcard to use. The first week after, I was a bit elated and now I'm starting to wonder.

I went for RN with my BSN.

What do you mean by conferred degree? I thought the person at my school who was responsible for that stuff did it all in one shot?

conferred degree to the BON and it is processed you will not see your license number up on the Breeze. For example, my school FedEx'd our final transcipts on 6/27 with a tracking number and they were received in Sacremento on 6/28

If I failed, they should just let me know already!

Yes, your school will take care of this "Conferred degree" but it doesn't happen until after you have finished the nursing program. They send preliminary transcripts with your coursework to date, so that your application, backgroud, etc. can begin to be processed and so that you can recive your ATT but it's not until the BRN has confirmed your diploma from your school that you will get your NCLEX results (and thereby License number). The best way to explain this is to read what my school states on their webside "You will officially graduate when our University has processed your graduation and when the School of Nursing submits your Official Transcripts, showing the awarding of your BSN degree, to the State BRN. The earliest degree conferral can occur is approximately 4-6 weeks after official grades have posted for CSUSM coursework. You may be able to take the NCLEX exam before this date, but the BRN won't release your exam results to anyone, including you, before we get the official transcripts to the BRN and they process them in Sacramento."

...I'm sure each school has a different timelime for this process so you would need to check with them.

@achurley

Thank you for the reply!

It's been a while since I graduated. It was a year in June. But my school did everything like you said. They started the process at the beginning of the term and we had 9 week terms. I would assumed that was plenty of time.

Back to waiting~!
