I wanted to share this information because just last night I was frantically searching for it myself and couldn't find anything current. The date today is 2/10/16. I took NCLEX yesterday and I know I passed because my name is listed as having an active license from the state. However, the Pearson Vue Trick did not work for me! Even right now, knowing that I passed, it is still letting me register for a new test!
So, if it lets you register please do not rely on this alone! You still may have passed!
I hope this is helpful to someone who is out there thinking they failed because the almighty Pearson Vue Trick didn't work for them!
My school used ATI for a lot of our tests and for preparing us for NCLEX. When I took the RN predictor it said I was 99% likely to pass on the first attempt. I was close to graduating the ADN program but dropped out because my husband left me and I didn't think I had the mental capacity to handle the rest of the program. This was three years ago! I decided to take the NCLEX-PN before my 3 year time period expired this month. I tested today and the test cut off after 85 questions. I retook all of my ATI tests (after 3 years), studied over 2000 questions, studied two books, etc. The PN predictor said I was 95% likely to pass. I tried the trick today and it did not give me a good pop up, rather it took me all the way through with my CC info before I submitted the order. I am a nervous wreck and sick to my stomach. My school's PN program has closed since my time of graduation so I had to use the closed program to register. I am hoping the trick isn't 100% accurate. I had SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many select all that apply and did not feel confident leaving. Praying....
Yeah I took mine yesterday at 8am and mind was posted this morning on the BON but I haven't received my license number yet. Just says that I passed my NCLEX
May I ask how you studied? Currently trying to study to sit for boards in April. I took a review and felt like it was a waste. How did you study for pharmacology? Are they still only giving the generic drug name only and not both generic and brand name?
nice! well hopefully I find out soon...i am just compulsively checking. I don't know how people keep themselves sane when they have to wait more than 48h. I have no clue how I did and I keep second guessing my whole test and feel less and less confident! I had 75 questions, 19 SATA, lots of priority, no math. I feel like my last question was really easy so that scares me, too (it was about negligence) Totally up in the air :/ but hoping for the best!
I tried the trick today and it did not give me a good pop up, rather it took me all the way through with my CC info before I submitted the order.
What did it say when you submitted the order? Either it takes your money(usually bad) or you get the message saying you already registered for an exam(good). The trick has changed since 2014 fyi, to where you need to put in CC info. I recommend using one of those VISA/Mastercard gift cards with less than $200, and register the card with your info as well.
I just tried the PVT with an empty visa gift card and got the good popup..its been over 24 hours so i am crossing my fingers that it worked for me!! ill do anything to ease the anxiety and an empty visa gift card is no risk :)
When you guys say you check the NB to see if your license is posted how exactly is that done? I'm from Colorado I took my boards yesterday 02-11-16 and it shut me off at 75 I felt good through the test I had a lot of SATAs, priority and phram but the last question was a knowledge question. I did the pvt and got the good popup but that was 3 hrs after the exam. Its nearly 24 hr and I want to check if my license is posted but when I try it says not found but it says the same thing when I put my friends info and she already knows she passed so please explain how this is done?
Just look on your board's website to verify a license. For California, it is Breeze. Each state posts licenses at different rates and some people may get lucky and get theirs faster than others.
