To register for the NCLEX USA exam, first apply for licensure with the state board of nursing where you want to practice. Once approved, you will receive an Authorization to Test (ATT) letter. Then, you can schedule your NCLEX exam through the Pearson VUE website, which administers the test globally. Make sure to prepare all required documents beforehand.
You can take the NCLEX exam up to 8 times per year in most states, with a mandatory waiting period (usually 45 days) between attempts. However, some states may have slightly different rules, so always check with your state board.
