2017...Does the trick really work!!!

Published

Ok everyone...here is the truth...I was an LPN and when I did the trick...YES...it really did work...I just took my RN boards on the 28th of July and I did the trick again and got the good pop up. I did it about 5 times that day...I called everyone and told them I passed!!!! The next morning I tried to check again by doing the quick results, I checked to see if my LPN changed into RN and it didn't...Last but not least I did the pop up again and guess what...It took my CC PAYMENT...OMG HOW DEVASTATED I AM...I TOOK MY BOARDS AT 2PM AND WAS FINISHED BY 3:45pm. I checked all the way till about 10pm. I really thought I passed. Soooo to tell you the truth!!! The so called good pop-up didn't work for me:cry:

Once again this is why you DO NOT PUT YOUR CORRECT CC SECURITY NUMBER WHEN TRYING THE TRICK. If you waited until you got the email from pearson vue saying "now that you've completed your NCLEX blah blah blah" and then you got the pop up then you passed and by you trying over and over the software they used processed the payment because you used your correct info. Personally I wouldn't have called or told anyone I passed just because I got the good pop up because it's just that, a trick to ease your mind. If you did pass, you need to realize it you took your boards on a Friday. Unless your state is entirely different than most, there's no one working the weekend to post licenses. Hence the reason why when you checked on a SATURDAY nothing had changed. Until you get your quick results (if your state participates) you do not know whether you passed or failed at this point.

Now, because you did the "trick" wrong, you lost your $200 whether you passed or failed and it's non-refundable. At least if you didn't pass which I don't believe is the case, you've already paid for your next test.

Do something to get your mind off of things and RELAX.

Thank you for you explanation HopefulGradNurse. I took the test 7/28 around 2 pm too! Finished by 3:30 with 75 questions only. Received the Email you are making reference to yesterday around 6pm. Checked just now and still get the 'good pop up' I am hopeful I passed.

Do you happen to know where will I see results first ? Pearson vue site says 'results not available' and my account on FBON/MQA online services says under tab My Exam results 'waiting for score'

Of course license number not posted either.

Thank you again for your help.

Your quick results will not show up until 49 hours from the time you took it. So if you took it 7/28 @ 2pm. Your results should be available 7/30 @ 3pm
