First, I just want to thank everyone that comes to this website to share his or her experience. This website literally keeps people alive and going during some tough times. You might not know it, but there are tens of people out there that quote this website each day.
My journey with the Nclex-RN in California started on the 2th of December. I took the Nclex, I went home and tried the PVT, and it gave me the good pop-up. 24 hours and 4 days later, I was still getting the good pop-up. A week passed and no result or license, I was anxious to say the least, as some of my classmates got their license within 48 - 72 hours after taking the exam.
I always came to this website to get some courage as the weeks rolled by. Finally on 31st of December, I got my license. The long wait was over.
My main reason of writing today is that through my experience, I found out that the pearson vue trick is not a trick. It is the way the computer is programmed. If one fails the Nclex, it will take your money or decline your card accordingly (for insufficient funds or being invalid). The so called trick works perfectly.
Secondly, If you live in California, and you get the good pop-up after 24 hours of taking the Nclex, you passed. The waiting time has to do with the BRN taking so much time to process files. Keep strong and keep faith, you will get your license.
Took the NCLEXRN on friday (2pm) but was able to start early (130) and finished at 230. Quick results still not available! Got the good popup, but so tired of waiting. Anyone have experience waiting longer than 48 hours for the quick results? Dying over here.
The PVT works you guys. I just found out at noon that I passed (quick results). If you get the good pop and have been for the past day or two, you passed.
Took the NCLEX RN this morning. Waited a few hours and tried the trick, I got the good Pop up. Now to wait and see if I did indeed pass. I will post here when I know
The only pop up that matters is the one you see a full 24 hours AFTER you have completed the exam. Prior to that, it might match your results, it might not. After 24 hours....that's it.

I took my test this morning (1/17) and just tried the trick and got a good pop up! I used a Visa pre-paid $25 card. :)
