Took NCLEX today...how accurate is PVT?

Published

Ahhhhh! I am so stressed right now. I took the exam with 75 questions, only 4 SATA, 4 ordering questions and 2 or 3 math and a good handful of prioritization and delegation. I did the PVT and got the "good" pop-up. But how accurate is it really? I walked out of there nearly in tears because I thought I failed and also because I didn't get a ton of SATA. Any words of advice? Knowledge?

I was very skeptical about the PVT. I was in a similar situation, I took the exam on the 29th. I was so sure I failed. As soon as I got home I did the PVT got the good pop-up and was leary about believing it. 2 days later I got the unofficial results from Pearson and I did indeed pass. Congrats, you are a nurse!!!! I have yet to hear of it being incorrect!

So lucky! I had 30 sata :(

I don't know if it's lucky though! From what it seems like on this board SATA means you are doing really well and definitely passed right?

Also, from what it seems like on this board (and off this board), the "good pop up" has never meant anything other than passing! So breathe, congrats, and celebrate! :p)

I just tested a few days ago. I got the good pop up and passed!! I have read so many stories of it working for others that I was pretty certain it would work for me. I think we all feel like the PVT won't be accurate for us.. But it does!

Congrats RN!

Good pop-up worked for me a little less than a month ago...I'm 99% sure it's accurate ;)

Worked for me. Took NCLEX Tuesday, I did the trick 30 minutes after taking the exam and I got the good pop up. I tried it again that same night and I got the good pop up again. I paid for my quick results today, and I passed! You passed too! Congrats RN!! :w00t:

I didn't wanna believe it but I took the nclex-pn in April, test stopped @ 85. Got home & tried it & i got the good pop-up. 2 days later I paid for the unofficial results & it said "pass" :) You did it! Congrats :)

P.S. I always tell ppl that it's perfectly fine to feel like you did badly on the test lol!
