Ok so i took the NCLEX Oct.23 and have not received any results yet. I got 75 questions and felt like crying after the test!! my friend also took the test the same day and her name came up on tues. Oct. 28th. I'm in california so i can't do quick results...but since we took the test on the same day, at the same place and time should I assume i didn't pass ........

No don't assume you failed till you have official results. You and your friend may have tested the same day, but something could be lacking in your file that is preventing your results from showing on the BON website. From other posts, it seems California takes at least 3-10 business days before results post and thats pretty much only if your file is complete. I know its difficult, but wait for a few more days and then if you still don't hear anything, then try getting a hold of the BON to see if your file is complete or lacking something. There is a thread at the top of the nclex forum that Silverdragon102 has started regarding students who test for the NCLEX in California~maybe that might shed some light for you as well. I wish you all the best on a successful outcome!

Please take the time to check out this sticky https://allnurses.com/forums/f197/california-licensure-both-pn-rn-343819.html We are seeing more and more questions from Ca. Just because your friend got their results before you means nothing. Good luck

Absolutely do NOT assume you failed. Hang in there till you get your results. Hang in there. It is still possible to have passed. Like Jadu1106 said, it could just be something to do with paperwork. :)
Good luck.
SO just to update everyone that gave me advice and to give hope to people in my situation I PASSED!!!!! Turns out my school, SJSU never sent my transcripts to the nursing dept. so they couldn't send then to the BRN....ANYWAY once everything was finally processed my name appeared on the website YAY!!!!!

wow that took awhile. my school is taking awhile to send transcripts too. i got my ATT last week, and i finally scheduled my NCLEX for Feb 25. I hope my transcripts will be sent in by then. The Hawaii Board of Nursing is still waiting for my school to sent it and i sent in my request since early December before I graduated. My school said it would take 1 to 3 months to process...
Congratulations, this is why we say give it 2 weeks and then contact them and case your file.

I'm went to SJSU, too. I took my test on the 20th and waiting for results. Apparently the school is lagging big time and haven't sent out transcripts yet. It's so frustrating because I want to know my results so that I can tell me manager that I have my license or that I need more time to study for a retake. Congrats to you that you finally heard...and passed!
