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

So I read a post that someone had the good PVT but the next day she tried it and it went to the credit card page? Is this true - has anyone else had the PVT trick fail? I just took the test today and of course it sucked but right now I am still getting the good PVT. Please let me know if this changed the following day for anyone?! Thanks

i took nclex june 1st and availed of the PV's quick result which gave me a PASS status and now its been 3 weeks and i'm getting anxious more and more.i do not want to celebrate til i got hold of my official result from my BON. i've been checking their website too but i could not find my name listed,this makes me crazy the more.

can anyone enlighten me if the quick result is really reliable considering that they keep seaying that it is 'unofficial'?and for illinois examinees,when should i except my result in the mail if i am from the philippines?please help.

what do you mean by California Users? I got confuse, I took my nclex today and got the good pop up.... I am getting comments from many user congrtulating me, but after reading your post; I am now feeling anxious about it. So, you are saying that the Pearson trick does not wrok in California?

I got the "good" message. Took NCLEX pn yesterday, finished with 85 questions at an hour and 10 minutes. Ill update if it worked! :)

Good pop-up is "Contact BRN" not "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam", because I had that pup-up like"Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam" and I didn't pass my test.

Hi ileoleo,

But they all belong to the 3 sentences.

You got me worried there ! :(

coz mine says:

"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."

Does that mean I have to be worried ? :.(

I took my NCLEX - RN last 7th of june and I kept tryin to re register but those 3 sentences keeps appearing everytime I tried :(

I am worried sick coz California Board does not participate in quick result so I will have to wait wait and wait.

It has been 18 days :( but my name is still not on the California Board of Nursing.

I'm really really anxious now!

Hi,

I'm from the Philippines too :)

Took the NCLEX - RN here in London last June 7 for California but they don't participate in quick results so they said we have to wait for 4 to 6 weeks for the envelope to arrive :(

I have been working here in UK for 8 years but I just thought of moving and work in the US :)

Let me know if you got ur result :) coz I keep on re registering at Pearson Vue but the good pop up still appearing everytime I try to re register :/

Hi All

I'm still worried sick coz got the good pop up but its been 18 days and I still my envelope has not arrived yet :(

California does not participate in quick results so that means I will have to wait for a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks since I am in the UK :(

Will post it here whatever the result is coz I've been getting the good pop up and tried to re register for almost 30 times :(

Hi Guys,

I took the NCLEX (75 questions) on June 21st and tried the "trick" when I got home about 3 hours later. At first I got the pop-up saying that I had an open registration, etc. I checked back a couple hours later and I got the "good" pop-up. 48 hours later my RN license showed up on the SBON for my state. So... just one more instance where the "trick" turned out to work.

Congratulations to everyone else who passed! Good luck with your careers.

Congratulation to you and good luck to me. I took mine yesterday in California. Hours later I did the trick and I got the good pop up.. So I am really hoping that I passed!

Hi guys

I took NCLEX on June 6th '11 & i passed it with all 265 questions:yeah:

Got my result via mail after 5 business days.... and through these days of tension PVT trick helped me to stay cool :cool: with a good pop up...I believed this would work for me and it did:up:

Many thanks for everyone who posted their experience about this exam which eased my tensions and helped me stay motivated:up:

Thanks for the support guys !

PVT worked for me..I passed!! LPN!! WOOHOO!

Hi everyone. I have a question about Person-Vue trick. I took my NCLEX yesterday morning, and I was hoping that if I passed, my results would be posted on the BON's website sometime today. However, they were not. I finally decided to try the PV trick to see whether I get the good pop up or not, and I did get the "good pop up." But I thought you had to pay $8.00 or so to do the PV trick, but the website didn't ask for any credit card information. Is it free for everyone else? Or should I try it again. Hope someone can get back to me. Thx

I took my boards yesterday at 2 pm...(I feel your pain!) the PVT is a "quick check" that can be done without actually paying the $8 for the official/unofficial results. From what I am reading on alot of posts it seems pretty accurate... :yeah: especially since I too am waiting!!!! The $8 is for PEARSONS quick results, that's after 48 hrs... let me know how you did and I will do the same! GOOD LUCK! Lucy
