Good pop up and Failed???! Really??!

I have encountered several people both in my university and online who got the "good" pop-up and it turned out they had not passed and vice-versa. Granted...I'll be trying the trick myself when I take my NCLEX in a few weeks, but I won't be shouting from the rooftops "YAY I PASSED!" until I get my official results. It might be accurate for a percentage in the high 90s of people but my gawd...if I was one of the ones who the good pop up was inaccurate for and told everyone I passed based on that...well, how embarassing![/quote']

okay just tell them to post their experience so that its more reliable than saying it came to your research and friends from school.. Cause me personally i never read a post saying good pop up and failed. So if you have the link of that issue you can share it here so that most of us will believe you and not relying to that "friends or schoolmates of your".

What is the "good pop up"?

GOOD POP UP is when you're trying to reregister for exam in pearson vue and when you click the next button and all of a sudden there's a pop up window saying "our records indicates that blah blah.. Please contact your boards blah blah.." It means you 99.9% that you passed and if you try to reregister and you click next and it brings you to credit card page. Its kinda 50/50 basis. Either you passed or failed. But the "good pop up" usually they passed if they have this till the letter has mailed to you.

I did the PV trick and it worked. If you had hard questions-that is good. I received the good pop up. I worked with a nurse during clinical that received the bad pop up and passed so yeah it is not 100% so try not to freak yourself out (easier said than done), and try to pay extra to get your results early. Good luck and celebrate safely :)[/quote']

thanks!! i really nice when you recieve motivational posts rather than freaking you out. I really appreciate those good and reliable comments than to comments that is heart breaking and nerve wracking.. By the way congrats to you :)

I recently passed my nclex too though in my case I was too scared to check my quick results or even try the pvtrick coz this was my second time to take NCLEX the first time I did the pvt I got a bad pop up and i really did fail when i finally checked my quick results online. This time I didn't bother doing the trick or checking the quick results I was willing to just wait for my results in the mail but of course like you and everyone else my nerves couldn't handle it, so what I did was .... I went to the board of professions website (mine was NY) looked for the list of RNs and searched my name, TADA! There goes your full name and your license number! I would suggest you try this too, I'm not sure if your state has lightning fast processing system just like in NY but it wouldn't hurt to try. I'm more than sure you passed if you got the good pop -up so Congratulations RN![/quote']

Thank you so much. And congrats to you. Im from california and i should wait 2-3 weeks to recieved the letter..... I know its so wrong to claim it early.. But i keep praying and still holding on my faith that i passed.. I dont want to torture myself and keep putting my mind that i failed as long as i'm seeing the good pop up whenever i try to reregister untii now im getting good pop up so its been 4th day that im still having the good pop up. It will break my heart if that good pop turns to credit card page. But i hope not. I know prayers can move mountains :)

Westcoastguy - check the CA Board Of Registered Nurses website for your name. I believe they update it every week, if not a few times a week. I took my NCLEX several years ago on a friday and my name was on the website the next week wednesday, so I knew I passed!

So check it everyday. Best wishes.

Yes, just like city said. I went back and reread the posts!

Thanks..for the first time I took nclex PN.. And you know BVNPT took forever for the result.. So usually here we have to wait 2-3 weeks for the official letter saying passed or failed.. Then several weeks again for the hard copy of license.. All i can do now is just doing the pvt everyday if im still getting thegood pop.. So far til now im getting good pop up.. Still praying here :)

Minimum was 75 and max was 265 did something change?[/quote']

No there's no changes as far as i know And i do understand that nclex RN 75 is the minimum and 265 is the maximum.. And we all know that nclex PN 85 for the minimum and 205 for the maximum questions. :)
