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

[MissyNik]

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.

CT Pixie ours show up between 3 to 5 days. All of my classmates that took it and passed had their BON number within that timeframe so I can either do the trick or just wait for the BON status to change. I am a very patient person so waiting is nothing for me Im used to waiting.

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.

Well, there's always exceptions to the rule. Consider it a bonus if your results are available on a weekend, but Pearson says 2 business days.

I don't think its a strict 48 hours though just a central time for ppl to follow. So for the PV trick when I try to reregister, I answer yes to the question that asks "have you have taken the NCLEX before" right....................

I don't think it matters. You can try it either way and I think you will still get the same message. Fingers crossed Nikki!!!

Oh ok I just wanted to make sure..............its bad enough I have waited this log to check. I just want to get that good pop-up that's all so I can move on!

I took my test on a Saturday and did not have the option of quick results until Tues afternoon, I also did the PVT trick and it worked for me. My license was posted on the SBON the following Friday.

Mine took like 49 hours, but the quick results were available on a weekend. I took it Thursday at 1200ish and it was available Saturday around 1330.

So it probably just depends on when it just becomes available...............thanks guys Im just so nervous about doing the pv trick it makes my stomach turn flips whenever I try to do it. Yea anyone who takes it on Saturday would have to wait til Monday which would be 48 hours but only if the weekend counted. I am trying to work up the nerve to just do the darn trick tonight

Did you try the trick yet??? I FINALLY received my quick results today and I passed my NCLEX-RN!!! Yay!!!! I am so very happy

[MissyNik]

Hey RetrieverGirl I haven't yet!!! I am so scared to look I don't want to be disappointed, but I know I gota get over it. The weekends did count cause the status changed today to show quick results are available.
