Hi Bayb3,

I also took my NCLEX the same day in Cali and am still waiting to see my name come up on the license verification screen (as are two other of my friends who took it a day or two after me). One of my friends who took it several weeks ago, it took her 2 weeks to find out if she passed, while another of our friends, who took it 3 days after my 1st friend found out in one week. We all thought that meant our 1st friend failed, but 2 weeks later, her name was posted on the BRN website. She said it was the toughest two weeks of her life. I can't help but feel they are enjoying it up there in Sacramento. :angryfire I don't understand why we can't have the same options as other states to get our preliminary results from Pearson so that we at least know we passed. That our state even has a say in whether my results can be released to me by a private company issuing this test (that I paid for, mind you) upsets me. I could care less about whether I get my license right away. I still have my Interim permit (until I found out if I failed or am licensed). I just want to know whether I should start studying again to take my boards (in 90 days...another thing that irritates me) or whether or not I need to tell my new employer that I will or won't be starting orientation with all the other new grads in 2 weeks. I'd hate to start orientation and have to tell them that I won't be able to continue because I failed the NCLEX. Talk about embarrassing! Anybody else interested in starting a petition here in CA to allow us to get our results through Pearson in 2 days? Let me know and I'll find out what we can do.

I am going through the same thing you guys are, except I took my exam on June 10. I already posted this in another thread, but the reason for the delay is that the BRN doesn't have my transcripts from the college yet. They were sent over a week ago but the board told me it takes them as least two weeks from the time they are sent to process them. They won't issue a license or even tell you if you passed or failed until your file is complete.

I agree, we should be able to use the Pearson Vue site to get our results early. I don't understand why we can't. My life has been on hold for the last three weeks, I don't want to start orientation in case I did fail it. I can't believe we have to wait 91 days to retest too, that is crazy!

I don't even know what think anymore, I just want to crawl into a hole.

If there is a petition made, I'll sign it!

Will do, Bayb3. I'd like to ask you and other candidates for licensure in CA to fill out the Customer Service Evaluation form on the CA BRN website and tell them about your feelings on the lengthy delay between taking our NCLEX and just finding out if we passed. Print it out and send it in the mail AFTER you find out if you are licensed (that way they won't use your criticism of the BRN against you and delay your licensure). I think this is the best way to send a message to the board that each person can take upon themselves to do. Tell your friends from school to do it, too.

I forgot to mention to add to the BRN complaint form that we should be allowed to get our preliminary results from Pearson in 2 days via the internet or phone as occurs in other states. I still don't know one way or the other if I passed the NCLEX or if I'm licensed and this is ridiculous. It's been a week and a half now. Belle03, I am so sorry you are having to go through what you are going through and have been for almost a month. I understand that the BRN has had to cut some positions due to budget cuts, which is slowing down the process, even more reason why we should at least be allowed to know if we passed the NCLEX or not through Pearson. :stone
