NCLEX-RN March / California

Published

Hi all! I took my NCLEX exam on 3/5/19. I tried the PVT after I took the exam and again yesterday, with good pop-up. I keep on checking the DCA and Breeze website for results but still none :( How long did it take for you guys to have the BRN post your license online? I'm very anxious right now!!

Hey there, I took my test in SoCal Monday 2/4 and my license posted to the board at 11:30pm on the night of 2/5. I know of a couple people that took it a couple days before me but didn't have their licenses post until mine did. Here's another piece of advice: Pearson Vue is not allowed to tell you your test results. You HAVE to wait for the board. Also, if your license is not yet posted, the board will not tell you your results either. Just didn't want you guys to waste your time by calling and sitting on hold. The BRN actually posts licenses during the day, but they do not usually go live until their site updates later that night, so search yourselves late in the evening, usually after 11pm, THAT was told to my best friend by the BRN themselves.

I have heard there are several reasons why a batch of tests could be slightly delayed in reporting results: someone acting funky at the test center and they are verifying scores manually, computer issues between PV and the board, etc you name it. Not sure how true it all is, but trying to help with the small amount of info I do have. Good luck you guys!

thanks!

did you try PVT btw??

Actually no I did not! My friend did and obviously I wasn't waiting too long or else I may have succumb to the temptation. The main reason I didn't was because I have heard that rarely it has been inaccurate. Again, this is hearsay, but I didn't want to go through entering my cc info again just to have an inaccurate idea. My test shut off in 75 questions, more than half were SATA, and I got lot of critical care questions, so I guess I just felt confident that I passed and didn't want to try the trick.

Yes log in to your breeze account, and you can also simply search breeze for your name too. But once your license posts you will be able to see it on Breeze. Sorry I don’t know if I’m losing it but what’s the DCA site?
