From what i understand u take the course and then are tested at the end of the day...pass the test and u r certified. You don't need to be employed, just a licensed Lpn or RN....here is the link with all the info http://sn.umdnj.edu/cont_ed/IVthera...

Thank you for the info:)

Hi everyone, I just took my nclex RN and found out today that I passed! I want to start applying for jobs asap. I was wondering if i could put 'liscence pending, Nclex passed" on my applications? Or would it be better to wait until I get my license?...

Thank you! I have already applied for my license but in NJ it takes about a month for the Board to send you your license in the mail and to post the license # online...i wasn't sure if I should wait untill then before i begin to apply for jobs.
