I am halfway through completing LVN/LPN school (finishing Feb 2010) :yeah: and was wondering how long did it take for you to take the NCLEX-PN after finishing school? And when did you receive your license? Thanks:heartbeat

Specializes in med-surg.

I finished on May 15, 2009 and took my boards on Augsut 4, 2009 and passssssed!

It actually took me a little longer, graduated March 25th, didnt take the test until July 30th, passed, got license number on website 8/11. Some people in my class took it right away and failed it. Just depends on how well you know your stuff and whether or not you can interpret the questions.

I graduated July 22. Received ATT Aug. 20 and took my boards on Aug. 22. So exactly one month after graduating. Got license 4 days later.
