Hey all, I took boards yesterday and tried the pot. I tried changing the expiration date like I was instructed to do and it didn't give me the good pop up but I don't know if it was the bad pop up either so I was wondering of someone can help me. What is the bad pop up..

Hi, Bigman! Welcome to allnurses. The PVT is a bit of a controversial topic around here since it changed in August. Now that credit card information is required, it becomes riskier. Now, if you put in invalid information, PV isn't going to give you any result either way because if it checks to see if your card is valid, it is will see it's not. Knowing they did try to see if your card is valid, I would say wait it out for the quick results. It would suck to get charged the $200 if you can't afford it right now.
How are you feeling over all? I remember walking out of that place thinking there's no way I passed! Good luck!

Hey there I also took my exams on July 10, triedpvt trick 3 days after (because I was a little scared to try it) and then after entering all my credit card information correct exept for the expiration date (which i changed so that I could not be charged) booom! I got the pop up that says "credit card declined: please contact your credit card company". Based on what I havr read from the other threads that's the bad pop up, and that probably means that I failed.. May I know what message did you got?
The same feeling I felt when I walked out of the testing center. Its like I want to throw up and I am literally trembling. I'm panicking thinking that I did really bad with the exams. The hardest part was I am goong to wait for a month and a half maybe, just to know the results.
Jpcvc are you in a state without quick results?
Well at first it told me my security code was I child twice but it was bc I out the wrong card number. Stupid me. Then the third time it said the card information had been erased and to reenter it. Not sure if it's good or bad. It was right about 24 hours. I had 77 questions and mostly teaching and prioritizing questions. Does anybody know if those kind of questions are what is considered "passing level" questions. Bc half of my test was those kind of questions so I thought I was doing good
Unfortunately, there isn't a way to guess based on questions except to just wait it out. I'm sorry. Can you do quick results in your state?
Yes. I should have results in the morning hopefully. I have heard the PVt is not reliable now so I don't want to bum out until I get results. I just thought if you got the minimum questions more times than not you pass normally.

I would think so, too. It would make sense, right? Good luck to you tomorrow! Come back and update!
Haha it makes sense but that doesn't make it true. Haha. That's why I was trying to get some insight.
Ixchel Unfortunately I am
So nobody knows what the bad pop up is supposed to be for the PVt? I know it's not accurate but for my records and curiosity I would like to know what the bad pop up saya
