Hi everyone. I just have a question regarding Pearson vue. Hope someone knows the answer. I am actually taking both NCLEX RN and LVN exam. I already registered and paid for my LVN exam and not yet with my RN exam. My question is can i use the same account in registering with my RN exam or should i make a new account for my RN to register for my exam? Thank you. I hope someone can answer my question :) Have a nice day.

Why are you taking both tests at the same time? Did you complete an LPN program in addition to an RN program? Are you taking the LPN exam as a back-up in case you fail the RN exam?
I have a feeling you are going to have a problem registering for both at the same time.
It's actually a long story. Since im from California and im an international nurse. Im not sure if you heard about the concurrency issue that we are facing here in California so im not eligible to take my RN exam here unless we take their requirements to take MS and OB subjects to make it concurrent and that's the only time we can be eligible for the RN exam. Then i tried applying for LVN, they evaluated my transcripts etc. and i got eligible because of the equivalent education.Then i tried applying in other state for my RN exam and i got eligible for the exam. That is why i have two eligibility. but im not taking them together at the same time. Im just thinking if i can register in the same account.

Mark you only create one account for both exams. Schedule the LPN test first, and after taking the exam do the Pearson Vue trick. Then after that schedule the RN test, and do the PV trick later on.
Hope this helps.

Yes you can! I took LVN recently (April)and passed..and I'm taking RN next ..I'm using same account :) I'm also a foreign grad .. I had concurrency issue ,I had to take MS and when I finished my class in couple of months I received my eligibility, so now I can take RN exam here in California ,you can register both at the same time.. I did it..and yea! Try PVT too! It works :)
