PVT still works and your results should be available. Let me be the first to congratulate you RN ðŸ˜„God is good!!!!

Yes, your quick results are available on weekends as well as holidays.

If you took your NCLEX '1 day ago' that would be yesterday..Saturday. That means your results should be up tomorrow, Monday.

Thank you for the update. Sory I meant to say 2 days ago. I took it on Friday. But do you know exactly at what time they start counting the 48 hours, is it from the time you schedule the exam or from the time you start the exam? My exam was scheduled for 2pm, I started around 1:30ish bc I got there early

Its really not set to a particular time...from when you start or finish.

For my NCLEX-PN, I started my test at 8am finished about 1/2 hr later. My quick results were up at neither the time I started or finished. It was up around 10am or so.

For my NCLEX-RN, I started at 8am, finished about 45 minutes later. My results were up at exactly 9:01am. For my class, regardless of what time of day my fellow students scheduled, started, or finished their exam their quick results were up at 901am.

The only advice I have is keep checking periodically.

Actually....Pearson Vue's Quick Results are available about 48 hours from the time you finish. Not start. For people who do the exam quickly (a half hour, 45 minutes is quick!!) you won't see any difference, you'll get it "about" 48 hours from your exam, beginning or end is too close to matter, so I can see why it looks like it isn't "set" to a particular time. Results available fifteen minutes from the expected 48 hours is most certainly "on time" :)

For those who took hours to complete their exam, they WILL see that QR are available from the completion time. Again, it is APPROXIMATELY 48 hours, some will get it a little earlier. But for those who took three, four hours to complete the exam, it's just going to make them crazy to check every few minute from the STARTING time of their test: it ain't gonna be there.

I've always finished tests quickly...be it nursing school tests, high school, other college courses, NREMT test..what have you.

That's great! I tend to sit on them longer. Only downside to testing fast on NCLEX, really, is that a significantly shorter-than-average time period taking the exam usually flags the test for a Hold. Pretty common to see someone who finished fast also have their exams placed on Hold status so a review can be done to rule out cheating. As if people aren't anxious enough!

I'm new to this site don't know how to fully manage it it. For the person who sent the private message asking me what I did the 3rd time to pass my board. I read the whole Kaplan book like a romantic book, after reading it, I do about 10 sets of 75 questions on NCLEX-4000 every day. After that I did the 7 question trainers on Kaplan. That's all I did.

To tell you the truth, the first time I hated that Kaplan book because I am so used to too much information to me it did not have enough info, but trust me, that book has 90% of all you need to know. Also I make sure I read the rational real good after each set of 75 question. I did nothing more than that. Also, I memorized as many lab values as I can such as potassium, mag, cal, sod, BUN, Creatinine, urine specific gravity, urine Ph, blood Ph, ABGs, mag, glucose, digoxin.....

If you are one of those who took that test more than one time PLEASE do me a favor, DO NOT compare yourself to those who took it the first time and pass. This test cannot determine your level of intelligence, it is just a different way of testing your knowledge based on many people's opinion and research and research is nothing more than people's/animal's/ plant's reaction or opinion to a giving subject or whatever that is being tested. What I mean by that is what makes sense to you and I may not make sense to them therefore, you need to learn how to think like them in order to keep the patient "safe"

Best wishes on your exam!!!
