PVT changes

Updated:   Published

Hello everyone,

So I finally sat for my exam on Friday at 4PM. Testing all 130 questions and had 2 minutes left when I finished.

And so my story begins... I received an email from Pearson saying the usual “now that you’ve taken the test...” I tried to do the PVT trick using an accurate card number but incorrect expiration/cvc entries. My card got declined. I decided to leave it alone and read blogs and posts about the PVT. Fast forward to last night, 26 hours after my test ended, I did the trick again. I got so excited to see the good pop up! It gave me some relief. Now today, I woke up early and anxious. I told myself to do the PVT trick again and so I succumbed to it. Now, the screen totally changed. I no longer see the “our records indicate...” pop up but actually allowing me to reregister even with incorrect credit card information. At this point, my anxiety is through the roof. I don’t know what to make of this. I will just wait and see when I pay for my quick results tonight.

Anyway, I have read a lot of entries in blogs and forums about the “good pop up” but haven’t really ran across something like mine. Hopefully I still passed and this is just a glitch. I took screenshots. See below.

Sending out good vibes to everyone. Happy Sunday!

Just to clarify the first time you did the PVT it said card declined and then you waited a while before trying it again it said the “good pop up”

Just finished my NCLEX and tried the PVT! It said my card was declined. I have sufficient funds in the card. Only thing I changed was the expiration.. so hopefully my situation is like yours..

Hey there! Yes the first time I tried it, it showed card declined whilst changing the expiration date and cvv—That was within an hour of finishing my exam. I redid it around 26 hours later and it changed to the “good pop up”. I still used the incorrect expiration date and cvv. Try again tomorrow beyond 24 hours to see if it changes... and pray, I know I did.

I wish you the best of luck!
