waiting is the hardest part

Published

took my NCLEX RN Thursday at 8am. Add that to a holiday weekend and that makes for even longer to wait. This waiting is killing me. I just want to see my name on the BON website already. I got the good pop up and it's all been so surreal. I won't fully believe it till I see my license number with my name next to it.

I agree, the wait is worse than the actually exam. :(

I took my exam on a Friday so I completely understand how it feels to wait the weekend. Thankfully, weekends and holidays do not affect the 48 hour Quick Results time (if your state participates). It was worth the $8 IMO just to have some added peace of mind.

Good Luck to you, try to stay positive, and try to keep busy to make time go faster & to keep your mind off of things.

YES, that was absolutely the worst part!! The good pop up face me a tiny bit of relief, but I still don't trust it 100%. Thankfully it didn't take long to post!

Good luck!

My state does offer quick results but I don't want to pay for it lol

I did however do PVT again and got good pop up again. I figure if I didn't pass they would've allowed me to pay, since they know if I passed or not.

How long does it take for your BON to post? I can't imagine all that waiting! ?

Friends of mine said it only took a few days for their license number to show up online.

I'm sure it varies from state to state, but don't count on it posting in the same amount of time as your friend. Mine posted within 48 hours, whereas a classmate of mine (both of us had 75 questions) waited almost a MONTH for hers to post.
