You are correct, the trick no longer works, so don't stress about trying to do it. Sucks that some states don't do quick results, however I have seen on here that some BONs (including Cali) update licenses really quickly. Instead of trying to do a trick that is not going to work, try checking the BONs website several times a day. I have read Cali nurses who say that they get their license more quickly than the rest of us get quick results!
Caveat: Do not freak out if it doesn't show up right away--some people still wait a week a or two, I think it depends on how backlogged they are, but it is sure worth a try. Not sure if they update on weekends either. I've also read that if you call the BON after 3 or 4 days and request a new ATT and they refuse that is a good predictor 'trick'
Come back and let us know if you pass and best of luck!
johnslvn, sadly it makes no difference. Some say that tons of SATA are a good sign because they are upper level questions, but I have known people to both pass and fail with a ton of them, and people who both pass and fail with only a few. All these rumors to help guess results are just rumor. I wish that there was a more comforting answer, but sadly there isn't!

I took my nclex yesterday and it stopped at 85. I am pretty sure I didn't completely bomb it. I tried the PVT but my status still says not results available. I am going insane. Any suggestions? I am in Cali too so it takes forever to get results
so frustrated. I also read that the trick doesn't work anymore.
