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

BRN doesn't seem to follow any format. Can take anything from 3 days to 4 weeks to see results. I would give it a bit longer and then ring then and check your file is complete

Thank you so very much. i was getting sick to my stomach.

Just took the NCLEX-RN in Texas yesterday......ouch. What a scary experience THAT was. I went in all confident b/c i did the Hurst review, and studied the whole 4th of July weekend.

Got 265 questions. Don't think I passed. Got the pop-up. Now hurry up and wait.

I got sooo mana SATA questions, one math question, and mostly prioritization/med questions. I am already a LVN, and that test was Brutal!

So, to all you peeps out there that are taking it, good luck. Let me know how it goes.

I took the NCLEX in California on 7/1/10. 15 min-2.5 hrs after the exam (even w/ the status as "Delivery Successful") I got:

“'The candidate currently has test results that are on hold. A new registration cannot be created at this time.”

Then, after 3 hrs I got the good pop-up. This morning @ 1:30am I saw my name on the BON website. Yipeeeeeeee!! My recycling bin is going to get real full today.

I also did the HURST...but I've got to say that test doesn't have words to describe it. It wasn't harder than my exit HESI test but it was definitely not a piece of cake!!! I got 75 questions this morning and totally felt like I had bombed the test!!!

I'm in Texas too and I got the "good" pop up when I got home. My friend took it yesterday and when she tried the PVT, it took her straight to the credit card screen.

I do not care what anyone says, but the PVT works!!! took the nclex on july 1st, got the good pop up and just found out that I am officially an RN in the state of california.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the PVT does work. I took the nclex-rn in CT on tues. Got 150 questions, walked out convinced that I had failed and cried the whole way home. I had never heard about the PVT until that afternoon when I was googleing everything about the NCLEX, I got the good popup but was convinced it wouldnt work for me.

I got my quick results and passed!!!

PVT is definitely a piece of mind!
