I'm about 99% sure I got the fastest results/license of anyone that has ever taken the NCLEX! Here's my story:
I was scheduled to take the NCLEX-RN this morning at 8:00 a.m. and I arrived about 7:25 a.m. (as directed by the instructions) to be on the safe side. They were already checking people in so I actually got started about 7:40 a.m. I sat down, said a prayer and tested away. I definitely felt like some of the questions came out of left field but some of them I felt ridiculously confident on. I had at LEAST 20 select all that apply (which are NOT my strength) and my test shut off at 75. I felt good and ready to puke all at the same time. I was done by 8:35 a.m. I was SHOCKED. I was so worried I had gone too fast and just bombed it.
I got my things gathered and walked back to my hotel. As soon as I sat down I started texting all of my friends to get the word out that I was done and waiting. A little before 9:00 a.m. one of my friends texted me back with a screen shot of my license number - it was already posted on the state website!!!
I had my license number less than 30 minutes after having completed the NCLEX. You could have knocked me over with a feather. I thought I was going to jump out of my skin, I was that excited. Please know that if you're ready and prepared you can be in and out and down and even get a quick result! Good luck to everyone getting ready for yours!
