First time, 75 questions, internationally educated, pass without math

Published

I took the examination at 8:00 on Feb 12 2009 in Guam.

When the computer stopped at 75, I was so scared just like those who share their experiences in other thread!

I got 75 questions, 10 SATA, 2 medicaiton, 3 infection, many prioriy and education.

btw, I'm an internationally educated student without SSN.

I checked grade via pearson quick result service 2 hour ago (about 48-72 hours after exam) and it showed pass.

how can that be? SSN is needed before the state can post a license..0_0 best to clarify it with the state board...

I don't have SSN, so I sent a SSN waiver form to BON when I applied for the examination.

That's, I pass the RN exam, but still cannot work in states until I got my SSN.

btw, I took the exam not for working but for studying my MSN degree in the future.

Hope all of you pass the exam:nuke:

It is not a requirement for the state to have a SSN to meet requirements and sit exam. For some states however they will not issue a license without a SSN so all depends on the state

Congrats Yuching on passing the exam, I would suggest you keep an eye on the International forum re retrogression as I expect that to be ongoing for a long time yet due to the high demand for visas

Just to clear up things here:

There is not one state in the entire US that requires the SSN# before they will grant approval to sit for the NCLEX exam. That being said, the majority of states now do not issue an actual license without a SSN#.

Guam is actually a US territory in the South Pacific. Even for the states that do not issue a license without a SSN#, they can still participate in Quick Results on Pearson-Vue if the state or territory participates in it.

Congratulations on passing the exam and best of luck to you.
