Hi everyone! I was looking for anyone that could share their experiences, especially those who got 265 questions. This is the first time I took them. I am so scared. A lot of my classmates shut off at 75, and so every question I was praying it would stop and it didn't. Is it likely that I failed, or are there still hopes for success?
I must note, I caved and tried the Pearson "trick", after 24 hours because I heard its best to wait, and I got the "good" pop up: Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Another registration cannot be made at this time". Does anyone have experience with the accuracy of this trick? I know there is obviously room for error because it is not definitive, but it is my only channel of hope at this very moment.
Thanks in advance

I've read some posts where PVT does and doesn't work. Just saw a more recent post a few days ago where a girl got the bad pop up and passed... It seemed to be more of a "for sure" thing prior to August 2014, but after that they fixed the glitch. What state are you in?
Oh no... I'm hoping it is a good sign in my case! I am in the state of New Hampshire.

The test is graded twice within the first few hours, if you're getting the good pop up after 24 hours, you pass. If you get the bad pop up within the first 24hrs possibilities are that you still might have passed. However after 24 hours and still getting the good up i can say with certainty that you pass.
The pvt is not a "trick" the system will simply not have you schedule a test you've already passed? It makes perfect logical sense.

The more I read people's stories in various places, the more I'm convinced that many of those claiming certain things are only having trouble because they are putting in false credit card information and/or they are not actually going through and doing it correctly in the first place. Anyone that puts in false credit information should automatically assume the problem originated on their end.
That said, I tried the Pearson Vue trick, I got the good pop up, and I really did pass my NCLEX.
I used a good but one with insufficient funds , my fingers are crossed so tightly right now

Don't know how to vote but I got the good pop up after 3 hours and passed.
I waited to do it after 6 hours as someone suggested ...
Ever heard of anyone who got the good pop up and failed?
Someone on a facebook group said they know someone who got the good popup and failed. But I'm thinking they may have done it wrong (didn't actually hit submit). Besides that I only hear about people passing when they get the good one.
I definitely hit submit and it was a card with insufficient funds so it would've declined
