How long after passing NCLEX did your license # appear on the NYS BON site?

[tigerlily345]

Good night ladies and gentlemen,

I took my NCLEX exam today. I walked out of the center feeling like a failure, but after reading the forums, I decided to try the Pearsonvue Trick (PVT). I got the "good" pop up. Since this isn't 100%, I will pay to view my Quick Results when it is available. My question is, how long after passing the NCLEX did your license # appear on the NYS BON website? To me, this is the only REAL confirmation of a passing score .

Seven agonizing days! I took the test on a Tues, my friend the following Thurs. Her license posted on a Monday, 4 days after the exam, while mine posted the next day on Tues. Go figure!

We tested at the same testing center too

Dont wory about failure. I do not know a single nurse who passed and walked out of there not feeling like they failed me included. I thought for sure I failed I even went so far as to get my old CNA job back. I was so happy to hear I pased.

I am so happy for you. I am sure you will not have trouble finding a nursing job.w. What are you doing now? please elt me know haw you make out.

[tigerlily345]

Thank You "gmkj". Right now, I am just preparing myself for the interview. I have to be prepared for ANY question that I may be presented with, and that has me worried. I hate being placed in the "hot seat" (interviewing & public speaking). I am a shy individual. If the interview is successful, I will have to take a pharmacology exam. I've decided to get a head start by studying for the pharm exam before hand.

[gmkj]

Are you talking about an exam for your employer. If so I would not worry they are usually very easy and sometimes they even give them to you to take home to do.

[tigerlily345]

Yes, I was referring to the pharm exam provided by my prospective employer. If they ask about common drugs, i should be ok. Thanks for the advice "gmkj".

[gmkj]

It is mostly dosage calculations not so much about the drugs themselfs. But you never know it could be so yea I suggest you study the common drugs.What type of nursing do you want to do. Hospital, hospice, geriatrics...
