Quick Results and the Weekend.......

Updated:   Published

Just trying to find out if the 48 hour wait includes the weekend. I searched AN but don't know where the post is that talks about it. Haven't tried to do the PV trick since I took the test yesterday as I am being a real chicken butt. I felt ok after the exam when I left but then the more I thougt about it I started second guessing if I passed due to getting all 265 questions. I mean I know people have passed with that amount and I stayed in the game to the end but its just nerve wrecking to think about what might pop up on that screen if I check. :nailbiting:

Quick results count business days. Unfortunately Saturday and Sunday are not part of them. I have completed enough research and made enough phone calls that I think I know just about every rule with this NCLEX and Pearson Vue!!! Ha ha ha:smug:

Just try PVT. Don't kill yourself waiting when you can do that right now.

RetrieverGirl thanks I didn't really think so but thought I might have been wrong.

diamond_girl I know right :no: I am soooo ridiculous........

Sorry, you are very mistaken. PearsonVue says 48 business hours but they do have quick results available on weekends and holidays.

I know it for a fact because I took both my NCLEX-PN and NCLEX-RN on a Thursday and Friday. My results were up on Saturday AND Sunday. As well, I had several friends who's 48 hrs fell on a holiday. They received their quick results ON the holiday. Oddly enough I had a friend who tested on a Saturday, that Monday (the 48 hr mark) was also a legal holiday and she also got her results.

They tell you its business hours but if you take a look around the NCLEX site here, you'll see many, many people who do get their results in 48 hrs even if both days were weekend days and/or a holiday.

Nikki, your quick results should be up tomorrow. Take a look then and see.

Ok CT Pixie thanks...............my status says delivery successful but in that middle column it says my test results are not available at this time. Does this mean the PV trick wont work?

No, that means your quick results aren't available at that time. (Check tomorrow). You can do the PVT at anytime once it says 'delivery successful'. I actually did my PVT in the parking lot of the testing center minutes after I finished my test.

Oh ok..................Im just so nervous to do it. I was on this site all the time prior to taking the test and was all excited about doing the trick, but now its real and I cant seem to pull myself to do it. So silly I know :sarcastic:

I been on this site looking and posting and getting excited about finally being able to do the trick, then as soon as I take my exam I get scared to do the trick. I tell you...................

Well you have one of two choices:

1) Do the PVT

or

2) wait it out until tomorrow

I wont be paying 7$ for Quick Results so when I finally find out it will be by PV trick which is free! :sneaky: Then I will wait to get official results through BON site.

Careful with that, depending on the State, your license can be posted in a day or 2 weeks. Could you really stand not seeing PASS on PearsonVue and wait it out for 2 weeks or more to see it on your State BON?

I know my license did not show up for over a week after I got my quick results. I paid the $7.00 for piece of mind.
