What is the difference between quick results and official results

Published

I have been checking Pearson constantly ever since yesterday (I took the NCLEX RN Saturday afternoon) and my results always said that they are not available at this time. I just now logged back in and it said that if I wanted to view the 'unofficial' results I had to pay a fee. I paid that fee happily and it said I passed (!!!)

But, what IS the difference between official and unofficial results? It has been 48 hours so I would assume that they are done grading/checking it by now. Should I trust the unofficial results?? Silly question I know but I don't really see the difference. Thanks.

pearson-vue results are considered unofficial since they do not issue licenses. if it states that you have passed the exam, then you have.

official results can only come from the bon.

congratulations!!!!
