Pearson VUE TRICK!??? I got a weird result! Help please.

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Hey guys! Just took my exam about two hours ago, and when I tried the PVT trick I got a message that was like "your results are on hold". What does that mean??? I had 75 questions and about 20-30 SATA questions, but at the end I had a bunch of "Who would you see first questions" :( Help please!! I don't know waht this means and it's driving me crazy:(

The only reason I would think it would be on hold was because my name on my license was different from the name on my ATT form, but I brought my marriage license to prove that I had a name change. Any suggestions would be helpful!

Pearson Vue was very clear, at least when I took the NCLEX, that the name on the application and the name on your drivers license must match exactly. You would have been better of changing your name after taking the test. As it is you should call and speak to someone at pearson vue to see if they will except your test. If not then you will have to apply to test again with you new name and do the test again. Even if you passed it this time.

Yes, I know it said that. They said also on my ATT that it is allowed as long as you bring your marriage license to show the change. The lady at the center also said that was acceptable.

That's true that as long as you have a legal form about the name change, you can take the test. If that was the issue, they wouldn't let you in to test at the beginning rather than cancelling your passing(if so) score.

Good, they must have changed it since my friend had a similar problem several years ago. In which I don't know why you got a strange pop up. Try again tomorrow and maybe they won't be on hold anymore. Good luck, it sounds like you did great.

I also had 20-30 SATA today :(

did you go all the way through to the end of the PVT? when I first sign in it does say that my results are on hold, but if I go all the way to the end where you get ready to schedule a date, it says I already have an exam scheduled, which is supposed to be the good pop up.

Hey guys! I checked again and I got the good pop up!!!! The lady said it was due to my name on my license being different, but that it was fixed. SO excited!! Waiting on it to be official :smokin:
