Hey everyone, I want to share my story because some of you may be in the same situation. I took the NCLEX with the new COVID rules: 60 questions min, 130 max. After 60 questions, the test kept going. It went all the way to 130 questions. When I got home, I received the email from Pearson, waited an hour, and tried the Pearson Vue Trick. I got the bad pop up message in which the site allowed me to register for another exam. I tried the trick several hours later and got the bad pop up again. I was devastated. Two days later, I got the Quick Results and found out that I had actually passed. Apparently, there is a gray area for the Pearson Vue Trick: if you take the exam and make it all the way to the end, the trick may not be accurate. It wasn’t accurate for me. If you’re in the same situation, keep your head up. All is not lost.
Also, my state board did not post my license number before my quick results were available. I understand it’s cheaper, quicker, and more accurate to check your license status on the state board, but this is why I did not do so.
I believe so, because when I resit the exam most of my questions where on two areas that I got below grading standards... management of care I only got 1 questions on it although I got above grading standards when I took the exam the first time. So I do believe they keep a record track of our test.
I would like to add this link here.... no matter what is obstacles and challenging each one of us facing or disappointment at this moment never give up!
I took my test Friday November 13!! I had 75 questions and It cut of!
I did the PVT 4-5hrs after the test received the good pop up! The next morning Saturday November 14 Ohio state board posted my license and sent me an congrat email @640am!
Short story from the top....took the NCLEX 3Xs...1st time ran out of time at 190 something per-covid....2nd time post-covid took the whole 130 question test...took time to refocus my heart and mind....did not start truly studying again until end of September....used Remar VT, and quick facts book(memorized this book)....2days before the test I was burnt out and stop studying...but I knew I was going to pass a joy came over me and I knew I was going to pass...it was such a scary felling because I never felt this way before.... I mean I was arrogant!! LOL... I told myself that if this test cut off on me I knew I would pass...2 1/2 hrs later(sloooow test taker) and 75 Question I’m a whole RN! I’m a mom of 2 kids that are home and I am also a wife...I did not work at all and I took my time! I took the test on my time when I was ready...find what works for you and YOU GOT THIS! Don’t listen to no one on here that is not 100% positive! If they not uplifting you and giving top notch feed back not judgment then ignore them!! Your situation and learning style might not be the same...YOU GOT THIS!! YOU WILL PASS!
We did the paper and pencil 2 days worth of testing back in the day . It was horrendous, we had to wait for our results to come in my snail mail . It was so stressful that we stayed up having cocktails after the 1st day of testing to go back and test again the next day , probably not the best decision I made LOL . I passed though .
