I took the 8 yr- retake as I took off many years to raise my four children. I took a 4 week online Saunders course passed every quiz and test, took a CAT NCLEX type online test and it shut off at 75 and I passed. I took the CA NCLEX RN on June 16th it shut off at 75 or 76. I thought it was hard but that I must have passed because I certainly would not have tanked so badly to have it shut off so early! Well everyday I check the BON site nothing. After two weeks I called and she asked if I checked the site and I said yes, daily and was told my record was COMPLETE!! Two more weeks have passed. Today is 4 weeks to the day, I called and he said my record was complete and I should hear soon. That was it! Should I assume I actually failed because it has taken so long? Getting very despondent!
I received a call from CA BRN....I passed! The person responsible for 8 yr. re-takes has been out. They were really nice, apologized for my long wait( 4 weeks 1 day) and told me my license number will be on the site tomorrow am. Thanks to Karen on other thread who encouraged me to keep calling them!
