Hi Everyone,

I wish to take GMAT exam in September 1st/2nd week. I am unable to find a suitable date at Pearsons, though I see plenty of dates and slots available at Think Education Advisory Services but not sure if this centre is in working condition or not. Anyone with latest update pls help.

Hi,

I am planning to take my exam at Koramangala Test Centre(THINK EDUCATION ADVISORY SERVICES LLP) on May 31, 2016. Can someone please tell me should I book the slot here? I read some previous comments that the test was rescheduled, do I need to book the slot at Manipal centre only? My first preference was Manipal centre but I am unable to find a suitable slot there for taking the exam.

Also, do they provide ear buds or noise cancellation headphone during the test?

Thanks!

Indeed I would be interested in knowing this too. I also want to know why Kormangala center seems to be lower on the preference list of students:).

Is it only because this center is relatively new?

I recently took my GMAT at this center, and I must say things have changed from what is described above. It was a nice, small,homely & quiet place. Each station, I felt, was more spacious than the ones in Dickenson road office. The staff was quite polite and helpful.

TIP : choose the corner seats.

Hello,

I am thinking of taking up GMAT sometime at the end of this month. I was thinking about booking the Koramangala centre. Has anyone taken up the test recently. What is the feedback about this centre? Is the other one better? I am quite nervous about the procedure too. :(

Bangalore has two test centers A) Kormangala center B) Dickenson road center. However, there was a fiasco of mass cancellation of scores in the Kormangala center, last year during this month. I decided to check by visiting the center rather than by reading and believing what is written in various forums. The test center administrator confirmed that they had issues last year for about 3 months and since last Sept, the center has been operating at normal level. I met two candidates who finished their exams. One of them scored just below 700 and the other cancelled his score. Both of them have given the similar opinion that the center is as good as the Dickenson Road center.

However, there are parking issues opposite to the center. For those who are not able to schedule exam in Dickenson Road center can look forward to Kormangala one.

Hi I'm planning to take my GMAT around mid June in Bangalore. Only M S Engineering college center, Bangalore and MYRA School of Business center, Mysore are available for my preferred date and time slot. I could not find any recent review on any of the two centers. Can someone please help and post their experiences with any of these two centers? any inputs/suggestions are highly appreciated.
I have also checked the other centers in Bangalore : Pearson 1 at dickson road and Pearson 2 at Prestige atrium, but they dont have any availability around my date.
