How often can you take the NCLEX?

Published

Just curious...I have a LONNNNNNNG way before I do :lol: So how often can you take the NCLEX(if your not lucky enough to pass the first time) Can you tell I have little faith in myself??? Already figuring out how many times I can try :lol:

Varies by state. Check with your state's board of nursing. In many places, it can be repeated every 45 days. Some states allow only a certain number of attempts or they specify that you must pass within a given timeframe, while others let you take an unlimited number of times.

Sounds like you have plenty of time to prepare. Hopefully you'll study hard and do things right the first time around. It's much less stressful that way.

Ok, now THIS kind of talk has to stop, lol.....why are you even thinking this?!?

If you are dying to know, I imagine your SBON would tell you ;)

I know of someone who took it six times. Or was it seven? Anyway, she passed that last time!
