Waiting for results after taking NCLEX is Hell! And my experience with PVT and Quick Resul

Published

Ok all I'm in IL. I took NCLEX yesterday. Mine cut off at 75 and over half were SATA questions.. UGH! After I threw up, had to sit in my car for 45 minutes before I could even drive home. I for sure thought I failed! Well today I found out I PASSED! sigh of relief. Now as for the PVT... I tried this at like 3am last night when I couldn't sleep, I put the wrong expiration date in the cc info in hopes that if it did go through after hitting submit it would charge my card. I got the good pop up! It helped ease my fears a little but my stomach was still in knots as this is not a positive pass indicator. I was at least able to fall asleep. When I woke up, I went to quick results to just see if they were ready yet..(24 hours passed since testing) they were not! My BON uses continental testing services to process our applications, do background checks, ATT approvals, send official pass letters, and so on. I went to their website and check the application/get grades link. Which is Free! And lo and behold It shows my application is closed and I passed NCLEX!!!! Still as of now Pearson VUE quick results states results not yet available! So if ur only option is quick results or taking the risk of PVT in hopes of not getting ur cc charged. Either take the risk, try using the wrong expectation date and see if it works, quick result looks like it does take 48 hours so try to keep calm and get rest.. Which I know is complete Hell ur results will come. I hope this helps all u testing and waiting for results.. I know the waiting is utter hell and all u want is to know, but this is the price we pay to be nurses. If we weren't strong enough to make it through nursing school and this awful uncertainty of not knowing, we wouldn't be strong enough to be Nurses! Good Luck all and just know U CAN DO THIS!!!

When was it two weeks for results? -- back in Dark Ages, we waited six weeks to two months to hear whether we had passed.

But our generations did not know instant gratification existed then.....
