The exam went well but the centre was pathetic. Too much noises, faculty drinking tea in the exam hall and playing games on their phone. Construction going on near by.

Please don't choose this.] centre and travel to any remote area of the world but don't go to Patna.

Though one good thing was that the computers were new mac pcs, screens were amazing and I guess that led to a 690. There is a centre in Chennai also for which I have heard many good reviews, If i replan my gmat in future then it will be through any other centre than Patna

So, i took my GMAT exam in this test centre which is located in WAFI mall, Dubai. What an amazing place to be. It's near to Burjuman station. one thing which i liked about that centre was the cleanliness. Plus the attitude of the people who were present there at the time of my exam. There was pin drop silence inside the examination hall and it was really nice to be there. The temperature was neither too high nor too low. I took my exam during Summers, when it was too hot outside. But the temperature inside made me feel so comfortable and cosy. I will highly recommend this centre to anyone who is willing to take the GMAT in Dubai. The centre is Wafi mall, zone D, dubai, Burjuman station

Has any one been to this test Center. Since Pearson is full now. Any reviews for MS Engineering College will be very helpful. How is the test center efficiency, facilities and if any cons?
The MBA.com shows only 3 test centers in Bangalore now. One in Brookefield, Dickenson Road and MS Engineering College. Since its a college not sure on how the PC machines will be maintained and How professional the Staffs are. Any idea on other facilities and experiences will be a true help. I heard the one in Dickenson Road is good but there's one in Kormangala is not listed now. Is it closed now? Please help with info guys. Thanks

It was weird but I didnt have a problem or anything, all the testing preperations were their like they told you how long you had and stuff. Im not really too sure what other people have to say but honestly I dont care about stuff like that so I was fine being in that room for an hour cus all I cared about is the test, Anyways people should test here its like any other testing center no problems. Although I recommend bringing all your supllies and erasers an stuff so you dont have to be their all awkwardly asking for a pencil because they expect the highest from you

hygiene was maintained
center was quite
everything was smooth except the person assigned for the test center was late and the pens allotted to the test-takers were not working properly.
there was a lot of noise in the center and the temperature of the test hall was really low.
the center was easy to find but the staff was not paying attention to the test-takers when they raised there hand if something was not working properly.
i would take the test in another location next time.
Plus it would be great if the GMAT people first test the center and then give the permission to open one.

The testing facility in Utrecht is extremely easy to find, parking spaces as well as a Mc Donalds are directly in front of it. From that perspective, it is all good. No need to be there much before testing time. When you go the stairs upstairs, you reach the testing facility. The staff was very firendly and understood the pressure the GMAT takers suffer from. The vene scanner worked flawlessly, beverages and snacks were provided in the pauses. Earplugs and enough pens were provided. As it is in a remote area, there is no background noice or similar. In this respect, one could fully concentrate on the test.

I have read reviews of the test center on GMATClub and they were pretty negative. Well, I gave my GMAT in this center and I have to say this center is pretty good. Its a small center and this has its advantages, you have lesser number of students, also the rest room is just outside the testing area, so one wouldn't waste much time going out. Also, less students appearing means less disturbance, and the staffs are really helpful. They aren't stern like you would find in other centers where they have a pressure of handling lot more students. Also, the test center is quiet, no external noise and that's a plus point. In all, the test center is really good.

Had taken up GMAT long back in December 2014 at this centre in Koramangala near the 5th Block. My exam timings were from 9am to 1pm and I had chosen this timing as I was comfortable with the same. When I reached the centre at 8:00 am there was no one !! not the instructors, no office boys. I didn't understand why did they call us so early if there was just to be sitting blank. finally the watchman of the building - a boy - opened the centre and allowed me and another test-taker to sit inside. He also said that the supervisor would reach in some time and to wait, but to our demise! The supervisor never turned up and kept 3 of us test takers anxious , waiting and perplexed. Finally guess what, the watchman himself booted the systems and set up the iris scan etc. where he ultimately got stuck somewhere and then couldn't fix the issue. it was already 9:30-10 by this time, already crossed the actual time of the exam. we just kept waiting and building up our anxiety. Finally the supervisor came from nowhere with his still sleepy eyes, and started doing something. Every time we asked him something, he appeared rude and asked us to wait a while. finally around 11:30 he sorted the issue and asked us to get inside the centre. Traumatic it was. After this experience I humbly recommend only Pearson run centre.

GMAT Location:
NTTF, Electronic City, Bangalore-India.
This centre is quite close to the Electronic City Toll and has NTTF written in blue (visible when you take the flyover from silk board towards the toll)

Time:
8:30 AM slot.

I was at the centre at around 7:45 AM assuming that the procedures would start early. However, the invigilator arrived at 8:15 AM, did a quick passport check (generally passport is preferred over other proofs) and admitted us into the exam room at sharp 8:30 AM.

Exam Facility:
(1) There are about 6 computers in the room (3 on each side). The room is shut using sliding doors which creak a little. Ears plugs are provided at the centre and you may use them to avoid distractions caused by the noise of the sliding doors

(2) The wash-room is located in a different block. You may have to walk down from the first floor of the exam hall to the grond floor of the adjacent block (for men) and the first floor of the adjacent block (for women)- this is a negative

(3)The invigilators are very responsive and attend quickly

(4)There is a water dispenser at the hall

(5)Sweaters and Jackets are not permitted inside the exam room and must be placed in the locker situated right outside the hall. The locket is fairly big and can accommodate quite a lot of things

(6)You may bring your own food to eat during the 8 minute breaks and store them in the locker. There were no restrictions placed on the same during my exam. (I did not take a break for more than 3 min. I wanted to maintain the momentum)


Crux:
If you stay close to Electronic City, you may chose this centre. It is less crowded and the invigilators are accommodating. however, this centre has the disadvantage of a distantly situated rest room. If you think you can manage to run to the restroom and be back before the 8 Min. break ends or, if you think you can write without using one, then, go ahead!

My GMAT Appointment is on Nov 28th, Nettur Centre. I scheduled it just now after going through your post. So, I am really grateful for finding this thread and particularly this post.

I was anxious as I have already faced some problem with a previous centre. My previous appointment at Xenitis Technolab Pvt Ltd,Kolkata was cancelled due to "system escalation" just 12 days before my original appointment. Rescheduling was done free of cost, of course. Originally, I was supposed to appear for GMAT on Sept 26th but now I have wait for 2 months.

But anyways, thanks for this review. It gave me a good deal of confidence to book my appointment here.
