Pearson Vue Trick did NOT work for me and I PASSED!

Nursing Students NCLEX Nursing Q/A

I just wanted to make a post in hopes that this will come up for potential nurses googling about the Pearson Vue Trick (PVT)

I took my NCLEX in January of 2017, and decided to try the PVT so many people swear by. I did NOT get the good pop up, cried cause well obviously it didn't work so figured I had failed. Nope! I passed.

The Pearson Vue Trick does NOT always work. Don't let it trick you!

This is was my second time taking the NCLEX, I failed the first one. It happens! I just picked myself up and studied some more. Passed it the second time with minimum questions. There is so much online help out there! So good luck to everyone!

Congratulations!

Thank you!!

My exam stopped at 77 on my second attempt. Checked PVT got bad pop up, it says that invalid security code payment didn't go through. I don't know what to think. Did I do that bad to stop me at 77? While I did better on first time staying in game till 265? SO Frustrating.

If it says invalid security code, that means it would have taken your payment had the correct information been entered. I'm so sorry.

But please don't let this deter you. I passed on the third attempt. It's ok. See where you need to improve and make a plan. Don't give up!!!

All the best!

Thanks for your reply. How did you study? I studied Uworld, and Mark Klimeks audios.

Everyone is different but this is what finally worked for me:

1. Lippincott PassPoint - this shows you your weaknesses / strengths and you can improve on them. You can practice, take quizzes, and unlimited mock exams. Wish I had used it sooner. It was amazing for me.

2. Weekend before exam I went through all the Mark Klimek audios. The day before I relistened to his last lecture and really paid attention/took notes.

3. Reviewed the Spider-Man packet (google this)

Prior to the above I had tried Kaplan, UWorld, and Hurst.

Thanks for your advice. What was your first and second exams question numbers that test stopped?

230, 172, and passed after 75

Hi, Can anyone help me?

So I took my NCLEX recently and it stopped at 90 questions. I didn't have much SATA questions but the first 30 to 40 questions were so hard I did my best. Came home and tried the pearson trick and even paid 200$. So does this means I failed my test? I have been crying since than and I still don't have my results yet. Quick result doesn't work in California. Can anyone please help me and explain? I read all the reviews googled everything but still have the faith may be I pass but I am so scared to death. I only had 7 to 8 SATA questions so does this means I failed? Pearson trick didn't work already paid another 200$$? what does all these means? please if anyone knows I will really appreciate.

If you were actually charged $200.00, then I am sorry to say that you did not pass. It will not charge you or allow you to re register if you had passed.

Don't worry, chin up, you can and WILL pass... wait for your candidate report to see where you need to make changes.

Best of luck,
