Like many before on this website I am seeking guidance surrounding the NCLEX examination. I just wrote the exam and like a lot of other individuals, I just feel terrible about how it went. I wrote approximately 120-130 questions and I think I may have gotten the last question wrong (is that a bad sign?) as the screen shut down. Needless to say I walked out of the testing centre a little flabbergasted and with tears in my eyes.
Now I am wondering about this PVT trick to find out my results quicker. I'm from Canada and we don't have the quick result access so I would have to wait 1-2 weeks to find out my results. Being the inpatient person that I am, I was wondering if the PVT trick works? How long do you have to wait before trying? Do you need to enter your actual credit card information?
Any information that people have who have tried this trick recently (and with any info in regards to Canada specifically) would be extremely helpful.
Thanks :)

I was told to wait at least 4 hours after you finish your exam to attempt the PVT. I started my NCLEX at 0800 and finished around 1000. I tried the trick at 1400 ; good pop-up. I used a gift card with like $2 on it that had a valid exp date. Then I tried the Trick again at 2200-- good pop up ! Found out I passed the next day :) Good luck to you !
Thanks for sharing!
I tried the PVT trick approximately 9 hours after my exam with a visa gift card and I also got the "good" pop up. Now I am just hoping it is accurate! Based off of people's experience on this site it seems as if its only inaccurate at times for those who got the bad pop up.
