Part 1 (the original thread)--

Pearsonvue "Trick". Is this TRUE? Does it Work Every Time?

Poll to take once you have received your response--

Pearson Vue Trick - Poll once you receive your results

Here are the exact steps to see if you passed or failed the NCLEX exam on the pearson vue web site:

1) go to http://www.vue.com/NCLEX.

2) select the 'test taker services' tab at the top.

3) click 'register' on the right side.

4) click the 'credit card' link.

5) click the 'sign in' link in the second sentence.

6) enter your username.

7) enter your password.

? click the button.

9) click 'register' on the left side.

10) select your test type.

11) click the button.

12) select your country.

13) click the button.

14) answer the yes/no questions.

15) select your country again.

16) select your state.

17) type in your city.

18) click the button. a list of schools should appear.

19) select your school.

20) select the month and year of your graduation.

21) select your board of nursing.

22) click the button.

Very important: at this point, if you get a pop up that says 'the candidate currently has test results that are on hold. a new registration cannot be created at this time.', it has nothing to do with passing or failing; It just means that they are reviewing your records due to random reviews that they conduct, or because they needed to locate some data or papers, etc. This means you will possibly have to wait a few more days than your friends who did not get this message. If you get the message 'our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your member board for further assistance. another registration cannot be made at this time.', that means you passed. If you do not get either message and go straight to the credit card information page, that means you did not pass.

Your pearsonvue account must state that delivery is successful before you try the trick

Go up to the sticky and follow the instructions in red EXACTLY.

I keep reading about the "good pop-up" with the Pearson Vue trick. What exactly does the good pop-up say? What does the bad one say? I've heard of people not being allowed to re-register yet they didn't pass. Please help!

Merged with existing thread

Hi silverdragon...i took the Nclex-rn in the Philippines....waiting for my result is such a "nerve-wrecking idea" since i can't have the trick coz i was register by phone by my agency....pearson ask for my username when i try to visit to check my result thru this trick....pls help....

i took the nclex for the first time today and i went to the pearvue site and i got this message; "our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. please contact your member board for further assistance. another registration cannot be made at this time."

does this mean that i passed? i got cut off with 75 questions.

congrats mannn!!!!!!!!!!!

The trick works! I took boards on 8/19/11 at 1230pm. I didn't know what to do after the test, I was going crazy; until I found this forum. Did the trick and got the 'good pop up' to ease my worries. Today, 48hrs later 8/21/11 at 1230pm. I Passed!!! Go Buddha!:yeah:

I took the exam today at 12:30. I thought I failed. I was so upset afterward, and I was shaking. And I did really really well in class. I found this forum, and I read every single thread of just about every forum regarding the PVT. I tried it and got the "good pop-up." I'll let you know if I passed. I just wish I didn't have to wait until Friday :(

I took the PN exam this morning at 8am. 1 hour, 84 questions. I left the testing center in tears. I got the good pop up around noon, which was calmed me down somewhat, but I won't celebrate until I know for sure. Will post again when I have my quick results.

I know this question is asked all the time but I just want to be sure the Pearson trick REALLY works. I took NCLEX yesterday and I got all 265 questions and I left feeling like I totally bombed it.

I did the trick and I got the good popup but I keep checking my states license board and I am not showing up.

I just need some support

It worked for me. It took over a month for my license to be posted to the BoN website, so how fast your license appears is dependent on the procedures at your BoN. Even though I got the good pop up, I also paid the $5 for quick results for peace of mind while waiting for correspondence from the BoN.

HI ALL,

I took NCLEX RN yesterday... and got home and did the pearson vue trick..and i got the "good" pop up--but now my question.. When it asks for my information.. do i register and when it asks "Have you ever taken an NCLEX exam before?"-- should I answer yes or no..or does it matter? Well, i'm really hoping I did it right because if I did..it says "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your Member Board for further assistance. Another registration cannot be made at this time"

I REALLY HOPE I PASSED...i can't take any more anxiety!! I've been through enough stress with nursing school!!

Just checked my board website. Its official..I passed.. The trick really works!
