How to Retake the NCLEX Exam

If you've previously taken the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) for Registered Nurses exam, you have a wait period of 45 days before you may retake it. Once the 45 days have passed, you will need to register to take the exam. The NCLEX exam can be taken up to eight times per year.
