I took NCLEX yesterday afternoon and my name still isn't post on the BON pages with a license number. I finished with 75 questions and just wanted to know if anyone else took their test on a Friday and if so when did you find out if you passed/failed and when was your name posted online.

5 weeks after I tested. My quick results were available within 48 hours so I knew I passed.
Did you test on a Friday? What I really want to know is if it takes longer on weekends then normal
Yes. My quick results were available on Sunday. As long as test days are available 7 days a week all days are business days.
Thanks my name still isn't posted anywhere and no results are back. Preparing for the worst!

I took my test on a Friday and the results were posted until Tuesday-basically two business days for the posting.
Does your state participate in quick results?
When did you take nclex was is recently and yes they do I'll be purchasing them when they are up!

It will say results unavailable until the quick results are released at around the 48 hour mark. It never posts quick results the next day. Depending on the state it may be quick or take weeks for a license to post.

It was two years ago I took the NCLEX-RN, and seven years post NCLEX-PN; both times was 48 hours/2 business days when my license was posted on the BON website.
I didn't use quick results for either.
I understand that it's 48 hours for unofficial results but classmates who have taken nclex during the week had their name posted the next day on BON and I was wondering if anyone else took nclex on a Friday recently and had to wait for their name to be posted on BON.
You have yet to reveal which state BoN you are referring to. CA & NJ take weeks, NV and PA are quicker... No one can relay experiences if we don't know where you are talking about! And BoN's that manually update the database won't do so over the weekend so you may likely have to wait until Monday.
Sorry I'm referring to PA, I thought I said that earlier guess not! My mind is so scattered and I think I'm driving myself slightly insane trying to find out if i passed or failed
