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 am new at this, but have read a lot of post about the "PV trick"

I took my boards 7/6/2011..I kept it a secret incase I had to annouce to family and friends that I did not pass. I kept this secret until I finished my exam. I walked out of the exam and instantly called my mom (who had no idea I was taking it) broke the news that I in fact just failed the NCLEX even though it hasnt even been 2 min after the test. I got shut off at 75..and begged, prayed for JUST ONE more question. Throughout the exam I guessed and guessed and guessed..and just felt so let down and ashamed of myself for "not passing"...I read all about this PVT..tried it and got the "our records...blah blah"..and was like Okay im going to have to tell this thread that I am one of the few that get this response but still did not pass. Today on Thursday 7, 2011, I found I passed and official results are on my board of nursing!! THIS TRICK WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My status is saying Ready for Delivery. Does this mean I can't do the PVT yet? I finished it about three hours ago and just want to cry!

Congrats Amanda! I took my test in NY yesterday and was also positive I failed misserably. I checked later and got the "good pop up". Hopefully I'll be reporting good news before too long.

:up: UPDATE: PVT says I PASSED!!! My status finally came up Delivery Successful! I was sooooooo scared because I went the entire 265 questions!! (Boy, do I ever feel mediocre!) But I passed!!!:yeah: I have full confidence in the PVT! :lol2: :nurse: Now I need a job!

Here is another vote for PVT! Took my test on the 6th and was devastated that I had failed. Did the PVT and got the good pop up which relieved my stress a little. Today my name is up on the BON!!!!!! Thank you Lord.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but this thread and the other one are wayy to long to dig through.

Has the Pearson Vue Trick mislead anyone?

For example.. has anyone gotten the Good Gop Up but later found out they Failed, or gotten the Credit Card Page and later found out they Passed?

I have seen random posts here and there of people saying they know of people who got directed to the CC page, but later learned they passed. Not sure how accurate these posts are, though, since it was never firsthand information (it was always someone the poster knew, not the poster him/herself).

I have never seen posts of people saying they or someone they knew failed after getting the good pop-up.

This worked for me. I was sure that I failed but did the trick and got the good pop up. I found out I passed today... yeehaw... Three of my other friends did this too. One got the cc page and found out she failed and the other two got the good pop up and they passed... PHew... good luck to all of you.

Another vote for the PVT. As I wrote earlier, I was waiting for results after I thought I had completely bombed the nclex (guessing at 65% of the questions, having numerous meds that I had never seen before, and having over 10 SATA). An hour after the test I checked online and unbelievably got the "good popup". I couldn't accept how that was humanly possible, but today I confirmed it with PV's quick results for $8. For those of you questioning the "good popup" like I had, don't! Try to relax and accept that you are now a professional :)

Congratulations!!!! :yeah::yeah::yeah: Im still anxiously waiting on my official results...Hopefully, within a few hours!

Hey everyone :) I am happy to say that I took the exam yesterday morning and drove home 5 hours later looked for the pop-up and low and behold it was there. I had 75 questions, and took around 1:45-2 hours. The waiting period is the hardest part. I was sure I failed but I will keep you informed about my results.
