  1. Go to NCLEX Examinations :: Pearson VUE.
  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.
  8. 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 'Records indicates you have recently registered for this test please contact BON. An appointment cannot be scheduled 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.

I took the NCLEX-RN on 12/19 in Florida, and I attempted the PVT within an hour of completing the exam. I received the "good" popup. On 12/20, I checked my exam scores on the Board's website and saw that I had passed. I logged into my Board's account and could view my confirmation letter. My name was not reflecting on the "Licensure Verification" screen yet. I checked the PVT website again and the "Quick View" results still were not available until 12/21, which in my case, were not that quick.
Years ago we waited 4 months!!!!

Congratulations!!!!

I just took my NCLEX-PN in Ohio today. Test stopped at 90 questions. As soon as I was done with my exam and got in my car, I did the PV trick. It said "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". Is this a good sign?! I'm freaking out majorly. They say the exam is also reviewed by your state's BON so is this trick still reliable? I sure hope so

I got the pop up that 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." Is that good? I took the NCLEX-PN this morning

I took my NCLEX-PN on December 27, 2012 and i came out knowing i failed with tears in my eyes and feeling as if i didn't know anything. As soon as i got home (40 min later) i tried the trick and got the good pop up "our records indicates you have recently registered for this test please contact your Member Board. an appointment can not be scheduled at this time". When i went to my state page this morning (12/28/12) i had an active license so it worked for me!!

That's the same pop up i got and i passed!! good luck

That's the same pop up i got and i passed!! good luck

Congrats!!! Have fun being a nurse!!! :)

Thank you!!! This forum is giving me some peace of mind, but I still have that thought in the back I my head of what if I didn't pass. According to this, I did pass. I hope so. Will let you know when I get my official results, which probably won't be till Monday - how agonizing is that ;)

And congratulations to you!!! Enjoy your career :)

Unofficial results say PASS! Waiting to see my name and license on BON website

This "trick" has worked for me and everyone I know. I strongly believe its a "TRUTH."

I've been creeping these boards off and on this past semester, but a lot lately with the nclex this month. Just wanted to say that I took it the 27th and tried the PVT a few hours later.

I got the "good popup" and found out I passed via the quick results on the 29th!! So it worked for me ?
