So I took the NCLEX in California on Friday 1/16 got all 265 questions, 4 hours and no break. I felt horrible when I left, unsure if I had passed or not, but tried "the trick" when I got home 30 mins later. I got a pop-up, but it wasn't the exact same pop-up that I had been reading about. My pop-up said that I "currently had OPEN registration and could not register." I tried again 3 hours later, Saturday am, Sunday am and Monday am.... Same pop-up and no feelings of relief. I knew that if I had passed, results would be later because I took the test on Friday of a holiday weekend (Monday was Martin Luther King, Jr. Day). All my friends found their names on the BRN website 2 days later... Needless to say, it's now Thursday, 1/22 and I looked up my license on Breeze...and there was my name with "registered nurse" under it. Hopefully this will give faith to those who get the same pop-up, that just because you didn't get the exact pop-up as everyone else you can still have faith that you passed!
