It's really hard and frustrating to let go and move on. I gave my test on 24th Jan, Saturday at 8:00 a.m. My computer shut off at 75. When I came home at 10:00, i tried this PVT trick and i ended up paying 200 dollar and i confirmed myself I failed.
Virginia board of nursing does not even participate in quick results. When does this 48 hours end when you give the NCLEX over the weekend?
I did online chat with Pearson Vue but they said they have nothing to do with PVT trick. I don't know what to do. Have i failed now and should start preparing for the test again. It's just so so frutrating.

Did you consult with VABoN to confirm that you did indeed fail? Pearson has nothing to do with the registration glitch aka "PVT" and won't acknowledge existence or accuracy. Since you checked before 49hrs you really need to confirm with VABoN whether you passed or failed. I understand turn around is pretty quick in VA.
I did check on licensure look up with my ssn and last name but nothing yet . Some say it's should be 48 hours of business working days. I don't know if I need to wait till end of Tuesday. Such big nightmare and difficult to wait.
and deep down may b I think I fail:( since PVT works for so many ppl. Phewwwww..
48 business hours is nearly a week and a half. I'm betting they mean 2 business days which would be tomorrow for a Saturday exam or early Wednesday.
Thank you . Hopefully I cud find myself in registration .

I wonder if there isn't a confusion in terms and times. What I mean is, you mention "48" hours a few times, but typically "48 hours" as relates to the NCLEX is the time it takes for Pearson Vue to post official results via its Quick Results service. Since you said your State does not participate in QR, the 48-hour time frame means nothing to you.
If you mean that your BoN usually posts within 48 hours, I think we'd all be guessing along with you. Until you receive official notification, there's really nothing you can do.
I'm sorry you did the PVT so soon after finishing your exam; unfortunately you just didn't do it correctly. If you end up passing you will have wasted $200 That's why it's recommended to wait a full 48 hours after completion of your exam.
Good luck.

You tried the pvt too soon. You have to wait 24 hrs.
