The Test center is located near to Kalighat metro station and at a walking distance from Kalighat temple. The center can be reached conveniently from any location. The center is free from noise and disturbances and actually the top floor of an apartment.
The test administrator madam was friendly and guided thoroughly regarding the requirements and test taking procedure.
The test room and the test taking conditions are OK; however the rest room is a bit congested.
I would definitely recommend this center to all and planning to retake on same location.
Reach your center in time and all the best for your exam!!

I reached at the center 1 hour before my appointment (too early, yeah i know). The guy asked me to wait for a while before they start checking the documents. So i waited in a quite comfortable lobby. During the next 30 minutes i saw few more people coming in for the test, and i was thinking to my self that i should get inside and get in line.
But to my surprise the guy from center came out looking for me and asked to come in and checked my documents first as he knew i came first. Professional isn't it?

After that everything was smooth, the test center was clean, bathroom was nearby. They gave good quality noise cancellation headphones to wear. No hassle at all.

I would definitely recommend to use this test center for GMAT as it is easy to locate (very near to the main road), quite near to the metro station and very professional staff

Generally, the day you schedule your exam, several things run through your mind, but when the exam date comes its all about the test center and your presence of mind that decides your score. I think this center is amazing in assisting you w.r.to additional sheets and other aspects of your exam, reducing your stress. The exam personnel and office members are friendly and consider your preferences if any w.r.to the timing or the order you need to be sent in (so that if you have any meetings, you could come out soon or you can catch up your train). I recommend people to opt this if you could get the appointment.

I appeared for the GMAT exam in the Pearson VUE test center in Begumpet area, Hyderabad. I was worried before entering the test center that some or other unforeseen incident might ruin my 3 months preparation and interrupt the exam, and this fear had arisen because of the several reviews that I had read regarding the problems people face in test centers. But to my luck, this center was very very professional, organized and clean. Even when I asked for 2 extra pen to carry inside the exam room , which was obliged by the test center. During the break the instructor clearly told me your break has started at this time and you need to come back by this time showing at the big clock in the center. There was a lock facility. the instructors were good listeners.
Just one small drawback of this center is its just beside the main road. The honking sound of vehicles can some time enter through the glass window but the center provides noise cancellation head phones. So not to worry.

Overall my experience was good. The Test center proved to be as expected from a GMAT test taker.

I took GMAT at this location. Had a very bad experience with the seating location. First and foremost, that's a outsourced operations center. And people were working in that location. The place where I was sitting and giving the exam, was too distracting, the office printers were in the room, and some of the people were just banging the door open and coming and taking print outs. Proctors were helpless. Secondly, the drinking water was too too bad. Absolutely unhygienic. Advise all you guys to avoid this location, because its on the busiest marketplace of the city and the metro and traffic horns will distract you a lot.

Well.!!!!!!!!!!! One of the trickiest piece in the puzzle. Getting the score was not only challenging but mentally draining. Verbal RC was a pain. Woke up one morning. Decided, enough of studying, just want to go ahead and finish this last block. So just booked a random center and a random date in two days and went ahead. Okay, with the location. everything went so smoothly. Proctors were really very helpful. Did the bio-metrics and palm vein scanning and got seated. Got the AWA and IR done. Breeze past the 37 questions of Quant in 42 minutes. Took a power nap of 30 minutes. took the break and just started the Verbal. Few questions popped up in SC. and then started getting some fire bolts of CR. and with 5 minutes remaining I saw 4 questions remaining. All of them SC and just submitted. got the score.

The Kolkata Test centre is located near Kali Ghat temple. Locating the test centre took me some time. It is recommended to scout the exact location on a previous day as the center is a bit isolated and on the fourth floor of a building, whose entrance is towards the side. The building is located towards the northern-most metro exit of the Kalighat Metro station on the side of the temple itself.

On any average day, the center is free from any noise or disturbances. However, the lady in charge informed that they had re-scheduled a test day on a previous occasion due to loud speakers by a local club on probably "Rabindra Jayanti".
The lady in-charge and the test centre staff are very helpful and supportive. The centre provided me with a pair of industrial ear plugs.

The centre is a little small with 6 computers in apparently the only room,which I was seated in. There are two toilets. Arrive 30-45 mins in advance to avoid waiting for verification formalities, if the centre is full.

I've passed several exams in this test center, including 2 GMAT tests.
Overall, the test center is fine: conditions are norm, staff is friendly. I would provide several recommendations for those who are going to sit exams in the center:
1) Ensure you have appropriate clothes. There is air conditioner and heater, but if you ensure that you have a piece of clothes which you can put on or off, it can make you feel more comfortable during the exam.
2) Use the earplugs. It can happen sometimes that you hear some noise, as the test center is located within a company’s office. In addition, there will be people sitting very close to you – you will hear how nervous they are and how they type. Earplugs will help you concentrate.
3) If you wish to be the first person in line (there most probably be other people passing exam together with you – overall there are 4 places available), come earlier.
4) Also ensure you have all the information looked up before the exam – the universities you want to send the report, etc. Also be sure to have read the instructions on official website (official application with 2 GMAT exams). Then you will spend less time and be able to use it for your purposes.

This is good test center. The rest rooms are near by and the Test Center staff were really helpful. They provide you all the information and are really prompt to provide you support. The test center is easy to access and is really clean and has a good parking space. I have given the test her 2 times and I had not had any trouble in the Test center. The noise level was negligible but the room temperature was a bit cold for my liking, specially when you are not allowed to wear sweaters or jackets for the test. I would definitely recommend this test center.
