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.

Took NCLEX @8am this morning-test stopped @75 questions--as I was taking test, some of the questions became too easy & I was expecting the worst. Walked out of there like someone had kicked me in stomach. Now 5 hrs later, the Pearson Vue "trick" gave me the good pop up! (still feel like someone kicked me in stomach!!) As for my "profile" page status, it read "your exam results are not available @this time". Is this too good to be true? I am not a betting woman, but would have bet I flunked BIG TIME. I am sooo hoping this pop up stuff is accurate.

Hi! Was wondering what type was your 75th? Was it prioritization, select all that apply?

hi everyone! just want to clarify if this trick still works here in california? took my test last friday, checked the pvt on saturday but it went through all the way to the cc page. but i'm still hoping for the best, this is my 4th attempt now. don't want to go back studying again, i wasted so much time and money already...any advises would be of great help... thank's allnurses!!!

My 75th question was prioritization-did not have any math problems-had about 12 SATA's-one where you had to place tasks to do proper order on some procedure. A few questions were soooo basic and obvious, that it left me doubting. I guess I'd always heard that questions will get progressively harder if you are doing well. Will wait for official results, not putting away the books yet!

Does the PVT work if you went to school in Canada? I am taking the exam on Wednesday through Minnesota. I'm only asking just because the instructions will say "select your school" when trying the trick... although my school wasn't on the list, just a # for Canada when I was signing up.

Any Canadians on here that took it and it worked for them?

Took my NCLEX today shut off at around 108. Waited a few hours and got the good pop up. Still in doubt though will wait for the official results, I only had about 8 SATA.

Tried it it works!

My 75th question was prioritization too. And the test seemed easy too! Im sure you passed. I guess the last question determines if u pass or not. (not sure)
