NCLEX Pearson Vue Trick Ever Wrong??

Updated:   Published

Hey everyone! So I just took the NCLEX RN for the first time on 8/22/17 and started at 8am. The anticipation is killer... So I got all 265 questions on the exam and it took like five and a half hours. I left the test and pretty much bawled my eyes out because I felt so badly about how I did. I felt like the questions I were answering, especially at the end, weren't passing level questions. However, I tried the Pearson Vue Trick and got the "good" pop up. I entered all my cc info and hit submit and it said "our records indicate you've recently scheduled an exam.....bla bla bla". So that gives me some hope but still not too sure. Like, I just felt I did so poorly with ALL 265 qs. Has anyone ever gotten a false positive PVT?? Also, I'll get my results via the quick results tomorrow, does the 48 hours from the test mean from the time you started or ended? Any insight would be great..I'm not able to sleep. Thanks y'all!

I will never do the trick again..... but it was honest for me. I did indeed fail.

Also, I took the exam at 11:00am / finished at 2:30pm. I had my results yesterday at 12:30pm

Sorry about the not updating my post, it's been pretty crazy down here in Texas. Anyway, so I took the entire 265 questions and took all 6 hrs to test. I honestly thought I did so badly and thought I failed. Even after I got the good pop up with the PVT, I was very skeptical. But it worked! And I did end up passing my first time! So it definitely worked for me, as I now have gotten my RN license from the BON!!

I'm sorry that you didn't pass, I know that feeling must suck. However the trick did work for me and I did indeed pass.

Thx. I wallowed in my own misery for the week and then picked myself back up. Just waiting for a new ATT.

You've got this! Like you said, pick yourself back up and crush it. You finished nursing school, you can do it! Best of luck to you!
