Going on day 7 and still no NCLEX results!!!

Published

Hey y'all! Tomorrow will be exactly a week from when I took my boards. I did have a misdemeanor on my record and I did notify the board and turned in all the necessary paperwork. Maybe that's the hold up? I'm slowly starting to freak out! What if they found something else on my record that I didn't know about?! What if I failed?!? Gosh...Wonder how long this is going to take....:banghead:

MS doesn't participate in Quick Results unfortunately. And the BON has been no help. Called them and the guy stated that it's in "final review" and after it leaves "final review" I should find out my results, however, he didn't know how long it'd be in "final review." I guess I might as well be patient....

Took mine last year on 6/6 and found out 6/13 (exactly 1 week) that I passed. It just happened to be my birthday too! Hopefully you'll have good news in the morning!

But...did you have a misdemeanor on your record?

This is totally just a guess but I would be surprised that the BON gave you the ATT if they were still considering your background. My money would be that for some reason they are just slow with the results. Hang in there.

Yeah, i doubt they would let you test if they had a issue with you...

Also, we are told that here in IL...they do quick results, but our offical letter from the state may not come for 14-21 days after boards....so it takes time....

If it's in "Final review" I would assume that you passed. I was told that our applications do not get sent off for review until we are ready to be licenced IE: We pass the boards.

Oh, I forgot to add that I to had a misdamenor and my licence took longer, but that's what the guy on the phone told me at the time, once they have your passing grade, paperwork is sent for review. *HANG IN THERE!*

No, but like the others have said...I doubt you would even been able to sit for boards if you were ineligible for licensure. Hope you get the good news soon!
