The Waiting is the Hardest Part!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Took NCLEX yesterday. I have only checked to see if Quick Results were available 452 times! Tom Petty once said..."the waiting is the hardest part!" Only 24 hours to go. Hurry, hurry, hurry! I know you can do the PVT but I don't wanna do that nor would I rely on it. I just want to KNOW it's over so I can start a new chapter of my life!

The wait is agonizing. I took mine yesterday as well, and haven't slept since. I'm an anxious mess right now LOL...

Specializes in Oncology (OCN).

I remember the waiting. The PVT wasn't available when I took NCLEX, but like you, I wouldn't have used it even if it was. I had already started working as a GN and was in orientation when I found out my results. We took a break and I called. I'm very reserved and quiet by nature but I squealed with joy when I heard that a RN license number had been issued in my name!!! Good memories! Wishing you the best of luck, Texasfude! And to you too, erickz623!

If you're in Texas, I *think* they update the Texas BON website before they notify you. I read somewhere recently that that's how someone found out that they had passed. It went from "graduate nurse" to "registered nurse".

Regardless - best of luck!!!

Moved to the NCLEX forum to ensure maximum responses. Good luck!

I'm tired of waiting too [emoji20] no change on txbon so I guess tomorrow it is. I have an exam at 1pm for my BSN so I will be checking quick results as soon as I'm done!

I'm taking my test soon and can't even imagine what that wait will be like! Good luck to you all!!!!

Yeah I have heard that too! I have only checked the BON website 345 times-so I have brought it down a notch!...lol. I only had 75 questions. My Kaplan readiness score was pretty good. I feel pretty good about the test which I hear is unusual so I hope I don't have a false sense of confidence. I think either way I would be little anxious!! :/

Thanks everyone for the tips and support!. I will post tomorrow and let you all know!

It's the worst two days ever!!!! Trying so hard to stay busy. I did not know 48 hours could seem this long!!!!!! :banghead:

I took my NCLEX today so I'm in the same boat as you, just a day behind. I also had 75 questions, took Kaplan with good scores, & didn't feel too terrible when I finished. Time will tell....(I have also checked BON website already even though I KNOW its too early :-)

Have you heard anything about the GN permit disappearing from Tx BON website if you fail? I know it does if you pass & it makes sense that it would if you fail too, but I'm not sure. Thoughts anyone?

According to the BON it disappears either way so you can't rely on that. I feel like I probably passed NCLEX but my GN is gone...so I hope I'm right!!! Take a look at this....
