I already replied but it means nothing as you didn't do the trick correctly. Try again and you will likely be charged.
Nothing. It means you tried before your test was QCd and not indicative of pass or fail. It means you tried the trick one too many times. You never waited for the QC to be complete. This is exactly why patience is necessary. Maybe you passed. Maybe you failed. You can do nothing now but wait for quick results or your BoN to issue results.

im afraid that since I tried it too early right after the test it gave me the wrong result but when I did it again and it came up declined that was the right one.
oh okay thank you
I read on the internet somewhere that the nclex is scored twice so to never rely on the first time you try to do the trick the second score is what is the verdict is this true ?

You shouldn't even try it before the 24 hours is up. As it stands for you there is now no way to determine if you passed or failed and you will have to wait.
so are you saying because I tried it soo early me trying it again and my card being declined might be wrong ?

I know it's hard to wait. Trust me. I really do. But honestly, the only way you're going to 100%, for sure know anyways is when your name and license number pop up on your board of nursings website.
Get out of the house. Go do something to get your mind off of it. You will know soon and will be able to put your mind at ease.
Good luck!

As has already been explained to you, what you did and didn't do at this point is IRRELEVANT.
If you enter your credit card information at this time, it might result in a non-refundable charge....even if you pass. Demonstrate control, and don't do it.
Every NCLEX is scored/resulted immediately upon closing of the test (it's why it stopped where it did). HOWEVER, every exam is ALSO reviewed as a quality assurance measure at SOME POINT during the following 24 hours.
If you do the PVT, the internet version of the Magic 8 Ball BEFORE your exam is finalized, you know nothing other than the likelihood of a pass (if it didn't take your money) or the likelihood of a fail (if it did, or tried to). YOU MUST WAIT until the exam has been determined to be valid---upwards of 24 hours---before playing this stupid game at all, or you know nothing whatsoever. Yes, people's results have changed during the first 24 hours.....but not the ACTUAL results, just the 'guesswork' of the PVT.
You passed or failed, regardless of the computer game.
Have patience. Wait. And let your friends know what happened to you so they don't do the same mistake.
