Part 1 (the original thread)--
Pearsonvue "Trick". Is this TRUE? Does it Work Every Time?
Poll to take once you have received your response--
Pearson Vue Trick - Poll once you receive your results
Here are the exact steps to see if you passed or failed the NCLEX exam on the pearson vue web site:
1) go to http://www.vue.com/NCLEX.
2) select the 'test taker services' tab at the top.
3) click 'register' on the right side.
4) click the 'credit card' link.
5) click the 'sign in' link in the second sentence.
6) enter your username.
7) enter your password.
? click the button.
9) click 'register' on the left side.
10) select your test type.
11) click the button.
12) select your country.
13) click the button.
14) answer the yes/no questions.
15) select your country again.
16) select your state.
17) type in your city.
18) click the button. a list of schools should appear.
19) select your school.
20) select the month and year of your graduation.
21) select your board of nursing.
22) click the button.
Very important: at this point, if you get a pop up that says 'the candidate currently has test results that are on hold. a new registration cannot be created at this time.', it has nothing to do with passing or failing; It just means that they are reviewing your records due to random reviews that they conduct, or because they needed to locate some data or papers, etc. This means you will possibly have to wait a few more days than your friends who did not get this message. If you get the message 'our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your member board for further assistance. another registration cannot be made at this time.', that means you passed. If you do not get either message and go straight to the credit card information page, that means you did not pass.
Your pearsonvue account must state that delivery is successful before you try the trick
I took my Nclex-RN a few hours ago, and I went online to try the trick...and this is the message I received,"The canidate currently has test results that are on hold. A new registratioin cannot be created at this time", and
it wont let me pay......so what the heck does that mean? Did i pass....fail...???
merged with existing thread for continuity
I took the RN test today in Pittsburgh (for Ohio Board of Nursing).....got there early and they let me start early. I got all 265 questions, lots of SATAs, several prioritizing, and left there with both my mind and my butt numb! I got the good popup though, so I'll let everyone know how it works out. Right now I'm just gonna be a slug!:dzed:
I took my exam on Friday, 18th. I am in Virginia and had to wait for three days to get my results, because of holiday weekend. I did the trick and it gave me the good pop-up, which helped me to calm my nerves. Called this morning to BON and I passed:nurse:.
Good luck to all test takers:redbeathe:redbeathe:redbeathe
