Passed the Nclex first time and did the PVT.....

[klm429]

Hello Everyone!

I just wanted to share my PVT experience.I took the Nclex at the end of September 2014. Let me tell you, the cc trick sent me into an unnecessary depression for 3 days. Although I could've checked my results after 48 hrs, I had convinced myself that I had failed and didn't want to check, my study buddy encouraged me to.Thanks study buddy:-) But before I listened to him, I did the PVT and it sent me directly to the credit card page, and I was mortified. There are a ton of videos on Youtube that show a pop up before getting to the credit card page, so when I didn't see the pop up, I was devastated. I never actually entered my information bc the videos I had seen didn't have to enter their information prior to getting the pop up. I do have a friend who entered her credit card information and it charged her card and her results did come back as failing, but I don't think that's sufficient evidence. After 3 days I checked my quick results and saw that I had indeed passed. I took a screen shot of that sucker and mass text messaged it to people literally all over the country as if I was announcing a new bundle of joy. :-) Bottom line: wait for the quick results if available. The PVT will just drive you crazy.

The actual Nclex, now that was a whole separate story. I think I'll put that in another post:-)

Any questions, please feel free to ask:-)

The trick changed. Read the forum

Yea I figured something changed, but it still just seems like there are so many mixed reviews. What I can conclude is that everyone makes it to the credit card page and it must be fairly recent, within the last year because the you tube videos I've seen are about a year ago showing that popup before the cc page. Some of the forums are saying that they will charge your card even if you pass...and some say no they won't...just too much information. :-/
