Hi everyone!
So excited to report that I got my results via my state's BON website & my name was listed with my license #...I PASSED!! I took the exam on Monday, so I was able to get my results less than 48 hours after I took the test because they updated the BON website before quick results were available. Yesterday of waiting was really tough. I know that some states don't participate in quick results, etc, so I can't imagine if I would've had to wait longer than 1 day. Some of the information I read on these message boards had me really worried about my results so I just wanted to give you my version in hopes it may make some people feel better!!!
I had 75 ?s and I felt like they were passing level & I felt like I was passing while I took it. I had used the Kaplan On Demand and the questions seemed easier than Kaplan. So I just felt like I was well-prepared. However, I only had a few SATA, so that kind of had me worried. And, my last 2 questions were just basic recall, which also had me worried. So while I took the exam I felt like I passed but then when I drove home I WAY over-analyzed. I started thinking about how all my classmates felt like they failed & told me I would feel that way too but I would pass. Well I didn't feel that way at all...I felt like I passed so that made me feel like maybe I really failed. My mind kept running through my questions and wondering if I answered them right & wondering if they were passing level. The waiting game is so hard and will drive you crazy haha! To make matters worse, I did the PVT trick and got the bad pop-up....so this had me even more worried!!! I put in my CC info and it was going to let me re-register for the test. So I am proof that sometimes you get the BAD pop-up and STILL PASS. I know there were posts that the trick doesn't really work anymore and it's a controversial subject, so I will just leave it that it didn't work for me and maybe it does for some people sometimes but I had thought I failed when I really passed.
I checked my BON website early this morning and found out I passed. All that worry for nothing. And my gut instinct when I was taking the test was right! I just wanted to post my story because it is different than a lot of others I have read on here. I hope that it helps some of you not to over-analyze your test & think that if you only have a handful of SATA, or some easy recall questions, or that if you feel like you did WELL, that you might have actually failed, please don't worry yourself with these thoughts like I did!!!!
You've got this, stay positive and have the faith!!!! Let me know if I can answer any questions!!!!

Did you actually click submit payment? Bc that's the new pop up. But either way, congrats!
Yeah I thought I did! But actually I only got to the 2nd of 3 steps....so maybe I didn't finish the trick lol. Like I put in my CC info, then pressed the next button & then I didn't get the good pop up so I thought that was it...but it said "your order is not complete until you hit submit order..." So I must have done it wrong
