PVT question

Published

I took the nclex on 6/2 and still haven't receive my result, so I gave in and tried the pvt. I got the "good" pop up after trying to reregister (yes, I hit submit after inputting my cc info). Is this a good indication I passed? Thank you

I'm thinking it won't help, unfortunately, as the OP has said he is in California. They do not have Quick Results, and their licensing process is much longer than MA.

I am thinking you're right, my mistake. I did not see that the OP was from CA. Best of luck to the OP :)

Thank you! I've been reading blogs and have not yet came across anyone that has gotten a "good" pop up and failed, though I've read numerous blogs about people getting the "bad" pop up and ended up passing. I will update you guys once my result gets posted.

You want me to send you a link? I need to prove this to you in order for it to be the truth? I'm sorry, but I don't keep a link from every comment of every post I've ever read.I have no reason to lie to you on this topic, but I suppose you can choose to disbelieve if you wish.

One such story does come to mind however, it was from someone who got the so-called good pop up, and because everyone said it was so very accurate, he or she told everyone the good news. He or she also accepted a job offer. And then found out that he or she had actually failed the test, had to tell the employer that no, he /she couldn't take the job after all, and tell everyone who told him that the PVT is 100% accurate was dead wrong.

That sad story happened to be on this very forum if you care to do the search for it. I don't. I remember the anguish that person went through, because "everybody" said the PVT always works. So, I guess my motivation is simply to spare someone else that grief...but hey, it's not needed, I probably shouldn't care.

Wow. I don't know why anyone would accept a job just from PVT.

BECAUSE, don't you know it's 99.99% accurate? And I find people do a lot of dumb things when they have been stressed for a long time.

At one time *I* had a lot of faith in it. But recently? It's a foolish game. Nothing more.

Lol!!!! I'm sure a few years ago you could get a job after doing the PVT but now I wouldn't even risk doing the PVT at all.

Back to digging for the skeptics who want to believe in the trick...instead of doing the search: PVT and paid 200 dollars and passed... :cool:

Got the bad pop up & passed. There are many more like him/her. But of course there will be more people who post 'the PVT works!' Plus the website you posted has been up since the PVT was very accurate. But now it isn't.

Two more people who were charged $200. The PVT is far from accurate or a way to get your results. If people want their results & their state participates then they should pay the $8 & get the quick results.

Okay, I have never said the PVT was 100% accurate. I would never accept a job offer based on getting the "good popup," either. I was just stating my experience (and many other people's experiences with the good popup). I want the best for the OP and my intention is certainly not to give false hope. I would never say "yeah go apply for jobs because you're officially a nurse because of the popup." I know the popup doesn't mean you're licensed. You have to wait for your BON to post the license. I have seen people pay the $200, to pass. I just haven't seen someone get the so called good popup to fail. I would never use the good popup as an indicator to get a job, no way. I waited until my license was posted. But to many the good popup has been a stress reducer. Honestly, I don't know why we're making a big deal about the PVT. It has worked for many people, when done the correct way (waiting at least 24 hours).
