Took NCLEX a week ago, still no license!!

Published

Hello Everyone:

I am still waiting for my results!!! All my friends took their test and called BON the next day and found out they had a license issued. I have been calling, checking the website and nothing!!! Does that mean I failed?? My computer shut off at 75. I am very nervous!! 3 people that I know took the test at the same site at the same time and date. One of them has a license issued and the other two, just like me are waiting for results. Has anyone ever passed nclex and had to wait a week or more to find out? Should I keep having faith that I passed?

Worried future RN........................

So, did you get your license???

Yes I did!!! Thank you for asking. I have no idea what happened and why it took them 9 days to post my result. I had actually given up searching for my name in BON's website, then a friend called me to congratulate me about passing and I was like NO WAY!! My friend, another recent RN, had been bored and decided to look up everyone from my class to see if we had passed or not. Too funny......

Glad to hear you passed and belated congradulations!!!!!!!

Congrats on passing! I have a question for you...you said you were checking the BON site and calling, etc. When you called, what did they say? I am in a similar situation. I took my boards on Tuesday 9/19 and am starting to give up hope. Many people I know have heard within 2 days. Does this mean I failed? I called and they said that nothing has been issued as of "yet." You think they are lying and not wanting to tell my I failed? I am getting sick over this! :(

I would give it a few more days. I don't think that they are lying to you. They had no trouble telling me that I failed the first time I took the NCLEX.

TAKE A DEEP BREATH - HOLD IT - AND RELEASE IT!!!

Do you mean you took NCLEX and applied for licensure in PA?

If so, you can check the license verification website to see if your license has been issued.

Good luck to you! :)

I applied for a licensure under the Pennsylvania Board of nursing. I still don not know the status of my exam
