I just want to take my Nclex examination, I went to a private school called Keiser University which was as disorganized as you can get. I am waiting to get my Authorization to test, I submitted my application several weeks ago, how long does it usually take to get a sit pass from pearson vue, I am using Kaplan q bank and the Kaplan book as its been recommended alot. I remember I passed my nclex for pn the first time I really know I can do this I just wanna test already....

We had to wait 3 weeks but that was due to our school being shut down for winter break. They did not get our names to the BON before break, and we had to wait until after they got back from holiday.

Oh wow! I bet that was annoying!

If you call the BON they will let you know what date they are currently reviewing to give you somewhat of an idea of how much longer you have to wait. As of today they are reviewing 4/21...

Thanks, I also find myself getting frustrated with taking kaplan questions from the q bank. I have been studying alot and maybe I just need to give myself a break because I am feeling like i am learning nothing right now and just getting more upset. Also the sit date is to be mailed to my school, so I don't even get to do it myself, so frustrating.

I'm not quite following you...

Sit pass means ATT, right? The BON will send you an email stating they approved you and then shortly after you should receive your ATT (email) from Pearson Vue. I too went to KU and know that they register you as a cohort so I don't know why your ATT would go to the school...you are the one who chooses your test date not the school.

And the only way they will send everything through snail mail is if you opted out of email notifications when you registered.

Isn't this what they did for your NCLEX PN?
