How long to get your ATT for re-examination? (California)

Published

Hi everyone,

I recently failed the NCLEX on my first attempt and was hoping to retest straight after the 45 day wait period. However I keep hearing different things: that you won't receive an email via pearson with your att until your 45 day period is up, that the BRN will take 5 weeks to cash your check then another 6 weeks to get your att from that point (and if this is the case that could be a minimum of 77 days until you get your att), and so on.

Since they have all our paperwork processed from the previous test, I don't imagine the processing of this one page re-examination form being that hard to "process". Can someone please share their experience with how long it took for them to get their ATT codes after submitting their re-exam paperwork?

I fear that this setback will not make us eligible for jobs until winter applications if this is really the case.

Are you in CA? I failed my nclex July 23 and when I found out I failed July 25 I reapplied and paid for Pearaon right away because I thought I would get my ATT quicker. I really want to take my exam once the 45 days are up because my dream job starts Sept 17. I am in California. I am really praying for a miracle. In the time being I will study, but do you think I will make it?

I have a quick question. I took my nclex July 23 but failed. Reapplied to BRN july 25 and paid and paid for the $200 for my exam on Pearson right away. I really want to take my nclex right when i am able to when the 45 days is up. The 45 days is up Sept 6 and my dream job starts Sept 17. Do you think I will be able to take my exam by then and get approved by the BRN? I an in California. I am really praying for a miracle right now.
