    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    Why PVT is UNRELIABLE. Please read.

    OrganizedChaos replied to RNsRWe's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Because the PVT is just that, a trick. It isn't 100% proof positive that you passed. I'm not saying you failed & if you did that well in school then you probably passed but PVT now isn't how it...
