Testing on a saturday

Specializes in ER, GI.

I took the NCLEX for the 4th time yesterday, 8/30. So i'm REALLY stressing now because now i have to wait the LONG Labor Day weekend. No results on quick results yet, ugh.

I felt much better prepared than the other times, but still stressing it. I've read alot of the threads here and have been very inspiring and helpful.

Results are available on weekends as well as holidays. They say 48 business hours but thats not the case. I tested on a Thursday and Friday for my LPN and RN. I got my results on a Saturday and Sunday. I had a friend who tested on a Saturday and got her results on Monday which was also a Federal holiday.

Your quick results should be up on Monday Sept 1st regardless of it being a Federal holiday.

You will not have to wait longer than the 48 hours. I tested on Friday the 29th and just received my quick results today at around 3pm so yours should come available on Tuesday about a hour after when you finished testing!

Most areas of the country Pearson Vue does business 7 days a week, therefore 7 business days are Sunday through Saturday.

Specializes in critical care.

I did mine Saturday of Memorial Day weekend. Thankfully we still had the trick then. I would have gone crazy waiting it out! And then my state decided they lost my background check for a few days (magically it just appeared when I started bugging them about it), so I ended up paying the $7.95 anyway. The wait sucks! Hang in there! Go do something awesomely fun and nowhere near the internet.

If the OP tested on 8/30, his/her quick results should be up on 9/1 which is Monday. As well, the time it comes up does not always happen after the time you ended your test. Both my LPN and RN quick results were available prior to the time I ended my test.

Oddly, my entire class seemed to have their quick results up at exactly 9:01am regardless of when they started or ended their test.

I tested on Friday (29th) and got my results today at 3pm. I am guessing that yours will be up Monday around the same time.

Good luck :)
