It can be nerve-wracking to take tests, especially an exam as important as the NCLEX (National Council Licensure Examination), so it’s natural to want to know how you did as soon as possible! While it’s impossible to verify your score right away, certain factors (like the number of questions you answered and their difficulty) can give you an idea. Beyond that, you can access your Quick Results a couple of days after the exam. Read on for a complete guide to spotting the signs of a successful NCLEX, plus the best way to find out whether you definitively passed or failed.
Learn if You Passed the NCLEX: Quick Tips
Log into your Pearson VUE account to unlock your Quick Results 48 hours after the test; they’re accurate but still considered unofficial. Beyond that, you’ll receive official NCLEX results and a confirmation from your state’s board of nursing up to 6 weeks after the exam.
