Part 1 (the original thread)--

Pearsonvue "Trick". Is this TRUE? Does it Work Every Time?

Poll to take once you have received your response--

Pearson Vue Trick - Poll once you receive your results

Here are the exact steps to see if you passed or failed the NCLEX exam on the pearson vue web site:

1) go to http://www.vue.com/NCLEX.

2) select the 'test taker services' tab at the top.

3) click 'register' on the right side.

4) click the 'credit card' link.

5) click the 'sign in' link in the second sentence.

6) enter your username.

7) enter your password.

? click the button.

9) click 'register' on the left side.

10) select your test type.

11) click the button.

12) select your country.

13) click the button.

14) answer the yes/no questions.

15) select your country again.

16) select your state.

17) type in your city.

18) click the button. a list of schools should appear.

19) select your school.

20) select the month and year of your graduation.

21) select your board of nursing.

22) click the button.

Very important: at this point, if you get a pop up that says 'the candidate currently has test results that are on hold. a new registration cannot be created at this time.', it has nothing to do with passing or failing; It just means that they are reviewing your records due to random reviews that they conduct, or because they needed to locate some data or papers, etc. This means you will possibly have to wait a few more days than your friends who did not get this message. If you get the message 'our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your member board for further assistance. another registration cannot be made at this time.', that means you passed. If you do not get either message and go straight to the credit card information page, that means you did not pass.

OK I believe that it works but I just took the NCLEX at 4:40. It is now 8:30, and I tried the trick and it is giving me the good pop-up. Is it way too soon? How soon have all you guys tried to do it? Thanks!

took nclex-rn today...260 questions...30 minutes left....quite tiring....everytime i saw a SATA questions i was like woot im doing good..had a couple string of them....then questions kept going..i was like damn i thought it be over by now since i got more SATA questions...come 260 i had my last SATA question..then it stopped....came right home and did the PVT trick...........got the good pop up....did it several times...good a good pop up....now waiting to get the official results keep yall update

i took my nclex last august 14, saturday... i stopped at 75.. i have 15 to 18 pharma, 7 to 8 SATA, 4 drug computation, 1 ECG reading, the rest infection control and prioritization.. my #70 to 73 item, it was drug computation.. 74 and 75 are prioritization then shut off..

i dont have my ss number but i took my exam here at california.. as soon as i saw this p trick i tried it and it leads me to the credit card payment page.. i am still hoping that i pass and keep on praying.. but to what i am reading makes me think i failed..

does it really means i failed? or still wait for my official result to be mailed.. thanks nurses..

congrats to those who got a good pop up..

Ive been trolling haha nice word huh, lurking these threads here in the forum about for tips and such. Took the board today 08/18/10 and took me almost 3hrs to stop @ 75. I felt I really slow answering the questions.. During my practice (I did a lot of Kaplan, saunders, tried the LA Charity Book), I would be answering quick. Geez man! I dont know what was happening then I clicked next then bam! Blue screen of death! Well Joy in this case cause I was relieved it was over but then the anguish because I dont know if I passed or not...

Bought me some halo halo (for all you Filipinos out there! Yeahh boi!!) then went home and chilled. Told myself not to do the online trick but eventually I did after some persuasion from my girlfriend and friends. And to my big relief... GOOD POPUP!!!!!!!!

YES! haha.

^^^ halo-halo sounds really good right now, it's super hot here in SD. anyways, you passed it. i had the same doubts, but i passed with the good pop up as well. but i'm sure, nothing beats having to get the official results in your hand! =D think positive 'cause u passed it! =D

I totally feel your pain. When I came home after taking the test hours before, I read about the PVT. At first I was skeptical but as I kept reading about it and how accurate it is, I decided to try it. It took me straight to the CC page. THE WORLD CAME DOWN ON MY AND I FELT EVERY OUNCE OF WEIGHT IT HAD!!!

I kicked, cried, punched, screamed, insulted myself and did everything that made me feel more at ease as far as grieving. Days later, I felt so focused and enthusiastic to get back to my studying. I just got my ATT and Im going to take 2-3 weeks of intense studying. Cuz to me, doing it for a month loses its drive, id rather have two strong weeks leading up to my test.

Anyways, Im not God to tell you that you failed. But Dont be too suprised if you dont pass. Im not tryna be harsh, just realistic because I went through the same thing as you did. It happens to real good nurses. Dont be ashamed, its not about how smart you are, its about knowing how to answer these questions.

Hey!

I passed!! To all of you questioning the validity of the "pearson vue trick", I believe it. I got the good "pop up" after my exam this time and last time it was going to let me enter my cc information to purchase another test, actually it DID let me purchase another test! I still question why NCSBN hasn't fixed this quirk in pearson vue's system. I mean, the "security" we have to go through to take this test? Anyway, the good "pop up" gave me peace for the day and a half before I got my verification that I had passed. Good luck to you all!

I am convinced of the PV Trick. Just found out by looking on the state board website that I did indeed pass. Here's the timeline for those wondering about the validity of the Trick: I took the exam at 4:30, it stopped at 6:30 at 75 questions (I absolutely thought I failed), and I looked for the trick at 8:30 when I was settled at home. I got the good pop-up. Nothing on Pearson even still. I just checked license lookup on my state board and after "Pending" all day, I am now "Active" with an RN number. I've asked a few people about the trick and it seems to be 100% reliable. Good sleuthing!

:nurse:

Still think it works for the most part, but latley there have been a few conflicting reports..

I took the NCLEX on August 16...and after 75 questions I was done...I came straight home and checked the Pearsonvue Trick...and it worked!! So I am happy to say that I am an RN!! That is the ONLY thing that kept me sane!! :yeah::nurse::hpygrp:

Cool!!! :yeah::yeah::yeah::nurse:Congratulations!!! to all RN who got good pop up and passed:nurse::yeah::yeah::yeah:. I am still waiting mine in the mail if I pass. I got got good pop up and I was hoping that PVT works for me too. I tried PVT tons of times so far good pop up did not change and still very anxious when ever I checked it (it's just me). My husband thinks I am crazy. This is my 3rd week waiting which makes me feel excited at the same time depressed (couldn't eat much or sleep much) :uhoh3::uhoh3::uhoh3: can't do anything but wait (Ca BRN) and no SSN. I will keep you posted.
