PVT was correct! I can hardly believe it, but I passed! When I ran out of time, I seriously thought I had failed. I took the Kaplan course ($450 ) and the instructor kept saying "time is your enemy" she told us not to worry about the time & not to "rush". When I ran out of time I just kep thinking "at least Kaplan has a money back gaurantee" because I just knew I failed. Then after reading the last post of how spending to much time with each question is a bad thing, I pretty much figured I bombed my test. I'm not saying to be a slow poke like me, the advise in the post was great. All I'm saying is if your a slow test taker, don't feel rushed. Think it through, and be confident because it's better than rushing. If you do run out of time, and your answering questions at the above passing level you have a good chance of passing. Thank you all for the advise & Good Luck!!

Sinah, thank you for the encouraging words! Did you retake your test already? I know its tough, I woke up this morning with puffy eyes from crying so much. (I don't know anyone who "ran out of time" with out finishing all the questions). Anyway, I'm wishing you all the best in your future career as a RN. :)

Good Luck to all!! I need Help! I took my NCLEX on Friday, would the PVT work on Saturday? I ran out of time at around 220+ and I'm freaking out! I'm in Illinois & got the good pop up but don't know if I should be happy. Any info?

Hello! Yesterday (Friday the 13th) was my BIG day! To make a long story short: I took the full Kaplan review course and used a Hesi NCLEX book to study. Although I was a nervous wreck, I felt prepared going into my test. I'm a slow test taker... always the last to finish an exam. Today, I ran out of time at a little over 220. I was devastated because I figured with the 60/60 rule the odds are working against me. I had a ton of pharm, infection control, delegation and prioritization, SATA, 1 math, and about 4 exhibit questions!! It seemed like I got some of the questions twice (I think that is bad). Anyway, after hours of crying.. I found this thread and gave the PVT a try. To my surprise.. I got the good pop up!! Has anyone received a good pop up and ended up failing? Just my luck..it'll be me! Pass or fail I'll keep you posted!!!
