How long does it take to get results in PA?

Published

I took mine on Wednesday and haven't heard anything yet. I'm just assuming I didn't pass since everyone seems to find out on day 2 and now I'm on day 4. It cut off at 80 and I know that I got the last question right but I've read that neither one of those things mean weather you've passed or not. I'm in PA. Did anyone else take their NCLEX RN on Wednesday May 31st and get results yet? PA is one of the states that doesn't allow you go get quick results from Pearson Vue.

If it has been 48 hours since your exam go to this website and type in your name. If you passed your name should be listed along with the liscence number. Let me know if this link doesn't work.

If you took it on Wed you should have been listed on the website on Friday if you passed.

Thanks but I've been checking that site since Thursday afternoon. I guess I'm doomed!

Did you get your TPP??? If so, it should list your practice permit on the site. Click on that and it should say wether it is still in good standing (meaning you may have passed and they just haven't posted your liscence yet), or it could say "null and void" meaning you didn't pass and your TPP is not longer valid. That is about all I know you could do for now.

Yes, I got my tpp and it's still in good standing as of now. But, my friend that took boards on a Monday kept checking and then called them everyday after Thursday and they kept telling her "a license hasn't been issued in your name" Finally on Saturday she got the failure results in the mail and then on Monday it said online that her tpp was null and void. I think they make sure you get the results in the mail before they void out your license online. Anyway, I'm pretty down right now. I did well on all the practice tests. I got 99% on all the Mosby's CAT tests I took and never failed an exam before. Oh well, at least I'll get another shot at it in 45 days. Thanks for talking to me. :mad: I have to go to work now, been working as a GN for a month, I was an LPN for 15 years so I guess I can be one for a couple months longer!

What kind of questions did you have? Did you have a lot of priority and delegation type questions? Usually that is a good sign :)

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

I just finally found out that I passed! I took it last Wednesday. I had to call the BON, it's not on the web site yet. What a long and frustrating 6 days, I was sure I had failed. Thanks for your support and letting me vent. Good luck to everyone that is waiting to test.
