Hello everyone,
I hoping someone can shed some light on this and maybe give me some advice/encouragement. I took my NCLEX on July 2, 2018 and I know that there are a plethora of reasons why my result could be on hold, however, does anyone know how long it takes? It is Tuesday the 10th and I still have my results on hold. I've talked to Pearson and the BON and they've given me the runaround--wait up to six weeks...we can't tell you why... My job starts on Monday and I need the results before then. Every thread I've read says it usually takes up to 96 hours, however, I've passed that time mark and am still waiting. Anyone have any advice??

Did something unusual happen? Usually a hold happens because you hand scan wasn't working, power outage, etc. they have to go through then and review the tapes / test before the release your results.
I just received my results yesterday a little after 5 PM. I passed, but it was an agonizing 8 days, 5 buisness days total

My results came in a little after 5PM. I totally understand your pain. The only thing you can really do is just wait. I waited a total of 5 business days and total of 8 days. I called Pearson and ncsbn and they just gave me the runaround, honestly you just have to wait. I did receive an email that my results were ready, but I was so anxious I kept refreshing every day at 5 so I just saw it pop up that the results were available. Just hang in there I know it's hard
