Taking the Nclex after being out of school for 5 years.

Published

Hi...I hope someone can provide me with some information on question. I graduated with a B.S.N. in December 1998. I did take the Nclex, but did not pass. Shortly after I became ill and was unable to take them again.

I am now wanting to take them again and get my liscense. Does anyone know what steps I need to take to do so?? I remember them saying you only had 2 years from the time you graduated to take the NCLEX, but I am sure there as to be a way I can take them now even though I graduated 5 years ago.

If anyone can give me any information on this topic, please email me at [email protected]

Thanks so much
