Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

[Silverdragon102]

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.

Hello All,

I took the NCLEX exam today, and 30 minutes later I tried the PVT. I got the good pop up.....BUT now I'm wondering if I did the PVT too soon. Do you have to wait a certain amount of time to do the PVT?

Thanks in advance for your reply :)

I finished my test an hour ago, and did the PVT. I got the good pop up. I was scheduled for 8:00-2:00 so I will next check after 2:00.

As long as it says "Delivery Successful" next to your NCLEX appointment on the Pearson Vue website, you should be good to go. You can check again later, but I doubt it'll change from "good" to "bad". Mine changed from "results on hold" to "good" within a day of taking the NCLEX.

Congradulations on passing your boards....

Waiting is pure agony, isn't it? I'm wondering if this situation has ever happened to anyone else... I took the NCLEX-RN July 2nd with a few former classmates. On Saturday, their names wore on the BRN site with licenses. Mine didn't show up, however, I keep getting the "good" pop-up when I try the PVT. I finished in 75 questions and am almost 100% sure I got my last question correct (and it was a patient priority question... passing level, right?). I'm losing my mind. Help!!!

[oztizz184]

congrats on good pop up!

what did you use to study?

how was your exam set up?

[Connie1109]

KML 1030, yea waiting is horrible! BUT if you got the good pop up then just wait for them to update your RN status. :)

Ortizz184: I used a lot of things to study. I took the Kaplan course and did about 80% of their question bank. I needed more content review so I bought the Saunders NCLEX-RN review book because it goes over the content and quizzes you at the end of each section on what you learned. I also bought the ATI NCLEX App for the iPhone, so every chance I could I would practice questions. I suggest doing a lot of practice questions, I did about 1500 (might be a low number compared to what other people do) by the time I took the exam. I got a lot of SATA, I also got put this in order, select the correct picture, and some math. My exam pretty much had everything. Good Luck, Hope this helps! :)

I finished in around 45 minutes. Checked when the Pearson Vue page said "Delivery Succesful" and got the good pop-up. Would my test timing affect that?

I take my nclex test on July 17, 2012 so I will let everyone know if this "trick" actually works. I live in Ohio and should get my official results the next day but I will try this "trick" as soon as I get done taking the test. I do have friends that have taken their nclex test and they were not able to get to the credit card screen and re-register and they found out they all passed so for them the "trick" worked but if you think about it, this really isn't a "trick" it only makes sense that if you passed you wouldn't be allowed to re-register because you have already passed and if you failed doesn't it make sense that you are allowed to re-register. I will let you all know what my outcome is.

[drollinger]

also, one of my friends tried to re-register only 10 minutes after she finished her test and she wasn't able to so it can be really quick at least in her case

[brittykbritt]

I took NCLEX-RN today. I tried to re-register and it says "our records indicate you have recently registered for this exam. Please contact a board member" or something like that. I had 75 questions and did not feel good at all about it. I trust the PVT just unsure of what the good popup actually says.
