Pearson Vue trick 2014 -still works!

Published

I took my NCLEX in AL yesterday and as soon as it said delivery successful, I tried the trick and I got the good pop up!! Then today when I looked on the AL Board of Nursing my name is listed as an active RN as of today!! :) So the trick works still as of 1/9/14. I still cannot believe I'm officially a Registered Nurse!! :yes:

Aaaasasssssssaaaaaaaaaa

Did Jobaby ever find out if they passed???

.... You just need to put in your credit card and it won't charge you if you passed but it will charge if you failed.

You should be very careful in giving out this advice, because people HAVE been charged $200 only to find out later that they passed.....and that registration fee is completely non-refundable. I'm glad you didn't get stuck with a bill like that, but others weren't so lucky.

Ok so I am posting cause I would hate to have some with false hopes like me. I took my test on Monday 10/20 after new update of pearson. I got 265. Got in the car used my card that did not have enough money on it. Hit submit and it declined my card. I have tried ever since then so I also have a permit which once you take the test it is cancelled whether you failed or not. IP cancelled Wed 10/24. Today called California BON asked when would I know something cause if I didn't pass I wanted to get my app process started now since California is so slow at processing. Guy told me I should find out something by Tuesday. I called back got a lady and I just started asking her if I failed when should I turn in app. She asked my name and told me yes if you are a re-applicant you can turn in today.I would turn one in. Giving me the hint that I didn't pass sad.png. I am glad she did because this is just torture. So I drove two hours away from home to Sacramento and turned in my app. Well the lady asked me if I brought my permit. I told her no and I live far and if it was going to delay my application. She asked and came back and told me yes. So Monday I have to drive back and give up my permit which is dumb because any company looks you up in the system regardless if you have you paper copy. So humiliating. I pray that nobody has to go through what I did. Long story short the trick does work regardless if you have money on it(BON guy even asked me if I tried it also) and if you have a permit and need to reapply turn it in with your app or you will have a delay until permit is turned in. God Bless and study study study.

My suggestion just so you won't get charged use your card but change date of expiration. One person did that on another site and still got the good popup.

A charge can be made, even if the expiration date is incorrect when submitted. Just FYI.

If you don't want to risk losing $200, don't authorize the payment, period. It seems to be true, based on countless threads and posts on this website, that a card isn't charged on a passed exam if the 'trick' is tried after 24 hours.

The test is scored TWICE, and if someone authorizes a payment after the first scoring (but before the second), it HAS happened that people have both been charged on a passing score, but not charged on a failing one. At that time, the software only knows the FIRST scoring, and if it doesn't accept payment within the first 24 hours, it's because it passed on the FIRST scoring. If it still doesn't accept payment AFTER 24 hours, it's (most likely) a passing score ultimately.

It's upsetting to see people jumping for joy ("I PASSED!!! I didn't get charged!!!") only to see them crushed a day later when they realize they actually failed. Same thing when someone is crushed that they failed ("It took my money!!!") and find out that, in the end, they actually passed (but are still out $200).

Please, everyone.....be smart and careful with this thing, ok?

I am not here to tell anyone to loose their money. If you can wait, wait but if not, use a card that will not overdraft your account or use a prepaid card you have. The point is if it says declined you more then likely failed because it attempted to charge your card. I hope everyone gets good pop ups. Wish everyone good luck. Stay positive !!!!!

The trick does work, or at least for us. My husband was able to pay and he failed...

I'm sorry I feel his pain. I am studying again now for the second test. I heard that the book PDA is good also to look at, it is priority, delegation and assessment book. Plus I still have Kaplan and tons of other books. Good luck .
