Pearson Vue Trick 2014

lmjsierra · Aug 24, 2014

Oh my gosh I'm not getting the good pop up anymore either!!!!!!!!!! Now it's talking me to the credit card screen!!!!! I'm officially freaking out!

I did see a note that they were doing maintenance on their website today! August 23 from 5pm-11pm

If your good pop-up said "you have an open regisration" that is different than the good pop-up. That will eventually change and become the good pop-up or the credit card screen. I know at least 5 people who got that and some changed to good and they passed and some went to CC and they failed.

Good luck.

I took my nclex PN Friday august 22nd morning at 8 am. I got home and once I saw "delivery successful" I tried the pearsonvue trick. I got a pop up message that said "our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Another registration cannot be made at this time" I checked it multiple times yesterday and throughout the day today.

I did see that on the site they say "august 23rd that the website is scheduled to undergo routine maintenance between 5pm-11pm

and now the site looks slightly different and I'm not getting the same good pop up message now I'm being taken to the credit card page.

ill be be able to get my quick results in 8 hours! But it's going to be a long 8 hours!!!!!

Are you sure? I had a friend to take hers 2hrs after I took mine in a different city, it would not let me go to the cc screen, but she could immediately after.

Try checking yours again. I've been receiving the good pop up since the 15th of August. Checked again about an hr ago and now it goes to CC screen. I'm reading many people with this problem as well...

It certainly appears that the PVT may no longer work, or if it does, any and all exam statuses done prior to the site maintenance are no longer viewable. My own NCLEX result of "delivery successful" doesn't show in the system any longer, so it's possible that someone somewhere goofed on some thing that no longer shows an exam status and if that's the case, then system that normally "runs" the PVT is broken.

Under "Exam Status" it should say "Delivery Successful" and if it doesn't, then something's wrong with their system, especially if you have very recently taken the exam. I'm sure that they'll realize something's up sooner than later. If people that take the NCLEX after the update don't see that "Delivery Successful" or something to that effect, that could mean that their system isn't recognizing that someone has taken the exam and the PVT may work after that's fixed... if that's the problem. Now if they've intentionally broken the PVT, then we're all just SOL and people that live in states that don't participate in the Quick Results will have to wait until they get the wonderful CPR letter in the mail after a few weeks to know they've failed.

I took the NCLEX yesterday morning. Got the good pop up, check it this morning and going to the credit card page.... FREAKING OUT!!!!

having the same experience as all of you. took my exam within the last 2 days, got the good pop up (i checked a LOT! ). this morning...cc page. for some reason my quick results are not available, though they should be given my time line!? my thought is that they have fixed the system on purpose to eliminate the trick so most people eligible to use quick results will use it. i think i'm going to use it now that i go to the cc page. that was $8 they weren't going to get previously!!! aaaaaaargh. if they let me get my results soon, i'll post here what they are!

I was just able to access my results. started the exam at 8am friday morning, finished at 9. got the good pop up 15 minutes afterwards. continued to get the good pop up until this morning, when i was sent to the cc page.

i passed.

i think we can (somewhat) assume if you got the good pop up prior to system maintenance on aug 23rd, you passed (again, don't know for sure, as i'm only using my own experience as proof). it will be interesting to see if they have done this purposefully or if it was just a system glitch. i hope for all that it is a system glitch that will be fixed. i can't even imagine being in a state that can't access quick results.

good luck to all! :)

Ugh! Im hoping it's just a fluke!

I should be be able to get my results soon too Like 50 mins.

Yes keep us updated and I'll update post my results when I get them!

I didn't get any pop up, it took me to the pay page and then I got a error processing payment. That's how all my classmates found out also. If you passed, you can't pay again, if you didn't might as well pay, you will be taking it again anyway. Was a sure fire way for everyone I graduated with to know, immediately if they passed or failed... Hope this helps, I know the wait is horrible!

I took mine, shut off at 75, I was mortified because none of the questions even seemed hard! I was sure I failed so miserably the computer knew I was hopeless at the min number, lol. Turns out I must have just had awesome instructors, I passed and it was EASY!

lmjsierra · Aug 24, 2014

I passed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you originally got the "good pop up" then in the last day 24 hours you were getting the credit card screen after they did maintence on the website. Don't worry it's pretty good chance you passed
