What you mean when you said you recently passed the local nursing board? And if you recently passed it why are you planning to take it again? Are you by any chance outside the US? The NCLEX is what people refer to as the "boards", and as far as I'm aware, it is used by all state boards of nursing so if you passed it in one state you don't need to take it again to apply for a license in another state.
