Hello everyone! I jut wanted some opinions on the pvt trick and how it's properly done, I took my NCLEX-pn exactly 9 days ago today my exam stopped at 162! I left feeling like a straight failure. I was told my some classmates about a pvt trick but I had been too scared to try the pvt trick. So after a few hours of debating whether or not to do it, the curiousity was killing me so I went on and tried the pvt trick but I entered the wrong cvc code and got the "bad pop up" it said my card was declined due to the wrong cvc code is that still the "bad pop up"? I'm also in California so unfortunately it takes about 4-6 weeks to receive a result confirmation letter but the stress of finding out if I passed or not is killing me I would really want to k ow so I could either retake it ASAP or start orientation at work as well and be at peace with the results. Help please!!!

Look through the threads in this NCLEX forum, I am sure you will find others with similar experience and with advice to pass on.
I hope you can sort through this, and that you find out you passed

You cannot use an invalid card when attempting the PVT.
Thank you so much ! Still no letter í ½í¸¿ I really hope I passed so far all my classmates have passed and many admitted to just guessing since it was a pretty weird exam lol so I'm hoping I passed I actually knew more than half of the questions lol also many of my classmates did the pvt trick and they all got the good pop up and passed?
I will attempt with any real card but now I'm scared to get the real bad pop up but thank you

I was wondering if you got the results back? I took mine on the 10th of April. My state has a quick result after 48 hours and I'm nervous as heck.
Unfortunately I still haven't received my results yet I'm in California so I heard it takes forever!! But most of my classmates have received their results within a week from taking their NCLEX except for me and one other girl in my class and she said she got the good pop up?

One of my friend took his in pasadena and held his results for almost 3 weeks. He had to wait until the processing time for results on the BRN website to be up to date before the board would do anything. Within a few hours after talking to the BRN it was released.

If you plan on retaking it if you don't pass, then I suggest you enter all the correct information (if you have the funds to do so) that way you will have paid should it be that you did not pass.
Best of luck!
