Means you passes! Congrats

*passed. If you try to register again after the exam and it goes to credit card then you failed

No it does not mean you passed. It means that your results are on hold as Pearson needs to review your exam, and possibly the audio/video from your test, your sign in vs. the BoN records, or keystrokes. Test results are placed on hold for a variety of reasons such as brain dumping before the tutorial is up, standing without raising your hand, issues with palm scan/ID, computer glitched, finishing the test rather quickly, even random test audits. There are more serious issues that are likely to result in your result being invalidated and a report being sent to your BoN for investigation such as using cell phone during test/break, suspicion of a fake ID, bringing test review materials into testing center.

So, yes if there was a question about your ID this can result in your results being placed on hold. The only answer is hurry up and wait for Pearson Vue to release your results. Some have had success after 48 hours calling Pearson Vue for an update on their status. Good luck,.

Helo guys thank you for bringing up some info.very much appreciated. I tried the trick again earlier and from the pop up that it was on hold it was now changed to "Our records indicate that you have previously scheduled this exam. Please contact you member of board for further assistance. Another registration cannot be made at this time"... Is this the pop up that everyones talking about that if you pass this message will show on your screen???? Thank you ..

I got the same pop-up but am still tense and anxious about it. I wrote down on the note pad they gave me which worries me more now because they said it's "brain dumping". Still hanging here if i pass or what because like i said my pop up said "the candidate currently has test results on hold".

I have taken my test yesterday and have a hold on my account when I am doing the Pearson vue trick. What does that mean? Its the following day and still getting the same results. Freaking out to death and panicking every minute. Can someone please help me:)
