Pearson says... Pearson vue trick not accurate

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I called Pearson about the Pearson Vue Trick and they said that although people have been able to use the trick as an "unofficial result", they themselves state that is is not accurate.

I did the PVT and it went straight to the credit card results. Should I believe what Pearson told me and not freak out just yet?

New York... I'm praying to God that the cc page for PVT is not accurate:unsure: but I read a lot of people here saying that once you get to cc page you FaILED!!!!

Good luck and let me know!

sure will....

I took the NCLEX RN this morning and only got 75 questions in 45 mins with 2 SATA, 1 picture, 1 EKG, 1 drug calcu, 1 meds, and 2 drop box. I tried the PVT and led me to cc page. I will see in 48 hrs if the PVT works....

Just curious what school in NY you graduated from

Sorry guys but if you get the cc page then you most likely failed. There are very few cases of the trick not being reliable. I got the cc page and 2 days later confirmed I failed :-(

They want your 10 dollars......of course they are going to say that. Its been accurate every time i have heard of someone doing it. I saw a couple post on here from california where they have ended up passing but that is because they further evaluate it . but unfortunately almost always credit card page = fail.

does anyone have first hand experience with the pearson vue trick letting you get to the cc page but you actuallly passed??

one of my classmates did...and when she called Pearson about it they admitted that it was an easy way for them to make $200 because if you did the trick, re-registerd and paid and then found out you passed they don't give you the $200 back...

i ended in 76 questions. i have 5 SATAs 3 exhibits and more priority questions, almost all of them are priority, but when i tried the PVT and led me to CC page. i sure hope that this is not accurate.. i am so devastated right now. i did a lot of work and i don't want to put it all in vain...

how long do you have to wait if you don't pay for the quick results?

I think its like 3 to 4 weeks for your BON to send it to you by mail.

So you don't actually know anyone this happened to though, correct? Because while I know it has happened in a few isolated cases, this is very uncommon. It's not a plot to get you to pay them more money. You do not need to put any credit card information into the computer in order to perform the Pearson Vue trick, so there's no way for them to charge you unless you are dumb enough to enter this information and then procede to submit it.

I received my official results in the mail exactly a week after I took the test, and I got my license exactly 2 weeks after. This is in NY.
