Did the PVT trick and paid the 200

Published

Hi all. I'm a graduate from a foreign nursing school. So I took the NCLEX-RN earlier this morning in MD. My test started at around 8:30 and I was done by 10:30 mostly because I decided that those questions that I had no clue on (which were admittedly quit a few), I'd just guess and keep moving.

At around 1:30 this afternoon, I tried the PVT trick and it took me all the way to the end where I put in my cc info and it was accepted. I'm awaiting a new ATT from my Board... I'm so discouraged right now because if this PVT trick really works, then that means I've failed.

I'd really like to know if there is anyone out there who actually paid the 200 and later on found out that they had passed. I've read so many posts on getting "the good popup" and passing and not enough on people who have actually gotten the bad pop-ups. Anyone out there who has been in this situation or something similar please reach out to me through this forum. Thanks

But how come PVT accepted my payment and no license at Ca breeze website?:cry: I'm going crazy now:(

We don't know. Nobody knows. That's why we keep telling you guys to stop doing the PVT.

Contact CABRN as they are the only ones who can give you an accurate response. I don't recommend mentioning playing the PVT game to the BoN though.

Pearson Vue accepted your payment because you attempted to create another NCLEX registration by offering your payment information and clicking "accept" twice. You offered, they accepted.

Maybe you failed.

Maybe you passed.

Only the BoN can answer you since you mention BreeZe I assume CABRN. (BreeZe has nothing to do with BVNPT)

From what I've read from other CA posters, the CA BON does things on their own time frame--randomly. Whether you passed or failed will be revealed to you when the CA BON is ready.

Your situation is the reason many of us don't recommend wasting your time or money on the PVT. You paid $200 and still don't know if you passed or failed. Now you have the added worry of whether you just donated $200 to Pearson Vue.

I called Bon just now and told me 4-6 weeks. Really? Also said "be patient". One month of waiting?!

Yes. Did you not know this before today?

And now you're out $200. Well, if you did fail, you'll need that registration anyway. If you passed....you'll be out the money for several sets of new scrubs :(

Yes. Really. BVNPT is even longer. You made the choice to play the PVT game, in my opinion the stress of "possibly" knowing is worse than not knowing as at least you still have hope of passing.

We waited 6-8 weeks before computerized testing. None of us died.

because my classmates saw their results after 48 hours and one of my classmate pressured me to do the PVT. thank you RNsRWE.

It's tough. But next time listen to your instinct. Did your classmates have interim permits? Seems those with IP are processed faster than those without

No they didn't pay for IP. I didn't either cos it will be invalid as soon as I take the NCLEX. Thanks JustBeachyNurse.

People just relax!!! If you took the NCLEX RN EXAM go out and have fun and stop producing to much cortisol just relax!!!!! You will find out !
