Nursing license status "in review"

Published

Hi everyone I'm stressed I took my NCLEX-PN yesterday an did the Pearson vue trick an low an behold I got the good pop up. So to be on the safe side 24hrs later I checked PVT an I still have the good pop up. Now here's my question I checked my BON (board of nursing) and website an my name is there with a number that starts with APP (I'm not saying the rest of the number) an under my status it says "in Review" what does that mean? Please help I'm flipping out ������

I'm sorry, I don't have the answer you looking for but from the massive amounts of post I've read and the tons of research I've done, I would say that it's in review because they have to physically check the test. Keep in mind that the test is checked twice. Once by the computer as you're testing and then again by an actual person. This is why it takes so long to get results. Don't stress yourself. From what it looks like. You're licensed. So congrats to you. Best of Luck. If don't mind. How did you study for your test and how did you feel while taking it. What resources did you use? thanks in advance.

Hi I used Uworld only. It is identical to the NCLEX down to the color to the font size... I did 25-50 questions a day an I read all rationales even if I got the question right. Also I watched registerednurseRn on YouTube. While taking the test it's not as hard as people say I just over think things a lot as you can see lol.

just as a point of information, although you are correct that each exam has been scored twice, both are done by computer. The first score is assessed at the time your exam closes (which is how it chose to close where it did) and the second, done at some point in the next 24 hours following the exam is a QA measure also done by computer. No human is reviewing this exam; it's not uncommon to find both sets of scores completed within the first half of the first day and results posted by the receiving BON. Only possible with all-computer reviews.
