how to find NCLEX results

Published

I took my NCLEX on monday. I kept checking the vue.com for test results through the night they were due. By 6:30AM on wed, I decided to check my state board of nursing. My license number was posted meaning that I passed the test. It seems to me that the results go to the state board much quicker then NCS Pearson goes through. Check that out when you look for results.

can you help me how to get my nclex result.i took my exam last december 19,2005..having hard time gettin in pearson.vue.com..pleasee....to shorten my agony if pass or fail...lol

In which state are you located? Not all states participate in quick results.

Pearson Vue does not keep record of passing/failing results of the NCLEX exams. Once you took your NCLEX exam, the results were electronically transmitted to your state's B.O.N. for processing. Pearson Vue will not be able to tell you if you passed or failed unless your state does the quick results, so I wouldn't bother contacting them.

If your state does participate in the quick results, you can go to your state's B.O.N. website to find out if you have a license number posted (which means you passed). If your state does not participate in the quick results, you'll need to wait 4 weeks for your result in the mail.

Actually not entirely true. Over 50% of the states participate in a Quick Results program thru Pearson-Vue. The scores are available 48 hours after taking the exam, and can be very beneficial for those that are in one of those states. Not all states post that quickly. This is how you get the "Quick Results," it is the name of the program offered by Pearson-Vue.

You just need to go to your account on Pearson-Vue website, on the 2nd day after taking the exam, and if you are in a state that permits it, you will see a link there where you pay the fee of $7.95 and you will get your results. But that is only if your state particpates.

Nurses in MI, as well as NY use this route all of the time, plus many of the others.

What if the link for "quick results" isn't there? My state does participate. Pearson Vue gave me the directions but under "status" it just says "delivered" and not "quick results."

Moeroe1: Did you find out your results? I just took the NCLEX today (I'm in Bklyn). I went to the pearsonvue site...I know they won't be ready till sat...but it says "ready for delivery." There is no quick results link. Does this show up later on?

thanks!
