Good Test Center

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

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.

Hard to navigate but professional staff

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

The building is easy to find itself since it has a huge Pearson sign on top of it. But once you are in the building, it is hard to navigate and figure out the actual test center. I was lucky enough that I took the exam on weekend and there were no other places open in the building but I imagine someone taking the exam on a week day would have some problems.

On the positive side of things, the staff is really professional and polite. They were kind enough not to even glance at my score paper once the exam was over. The person just saw my anxiety before and joy after and wished me the best before and after the exam, which helped me calm a little.

Overall, I would recommend this place for taking the exam on a weekend.

test center review

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

nice place, near by metro station is green park.There were a lot of landmarks given so it was easy to locate.
Test Area: is quiet but I felt that the AC was a little too cold for me. Usually I have the AC dialed in at 23F at home The test center was more like 18F. So make sure you come dressed in layers.
The scratch pads are a bit worn out but the staff makes up for it by not expecting you to erase anything.They simply provide you a new one each time you finish one. I would definitely recommend this testing centre .
Notes
They have a water cooler so you might not want to carry a bottle.
You can carry a pull over inside the testing area.
Around 13 people can give the exam simultaneously

test center review

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

The mumbai test centre is easy to find and close to the churchgate station. The staff is polite and that is always a good thing. The internal temperature was neither too cold nor too hot (for a change !) . The only thing you need to take care of is to double check the pens since a few of them are dried up and can stop abruptly midway through the test.
. The staff is courteous, and the place is not very difficult to find. The exam center is very quiet. During the exam, I experienced no issues and everything went flawlessly. No outside noise, very peaceful place, nice restroom facilities to freshen up. Good locker facilities

Good test center

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

The test center is located at a distance of approximately 200 meters from the Green park Metro station. It was difficult to locate first, but after going around for 15 minutes, I was able to see the small white board with Pearson VUE written over it. It is on the fourth floor of a building near HDFC bank. My appointment was scheduled at 1300 hrs and I reached there at 1220. I was given the entry to the test center at 1235. The staff is polite and helpful. There is only one restroom and a lot of people were taking exams-not only GMAT, but i think Pearson makes the schedules keeping these things in mind. They provided me with noise cancelling headphones-something like the ones used on choppers. Noise can be heard if headphones are not used. The lighting, AC and locker were appropriate. We are supposed to track our break timing ourselves and they didn't allow me to take the break while sitting at the computer.

It was a good experience overall.

Think Education Advisory Services LLP-GMAT Mumbai Test centre

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

The Think Education Advisory Services LLP test center is conveniently located at a 5 minute walking distance from Churchgate railway station. The test center is on the 2nd floor. The center was very clean and tidy. The center supervisor was friendly and strictly adhered to all the test rules. The center is equipped with washrooms as well. Before the test, as per guidelines, we were provided with locker cabinets to store our belongings. The cabinet was big enough. Inside the test rooms, the AC temperature was maintained well. The room were clean. The Supervisor checked the software settings once before he let me begin with the test. After the exam they were quick in handing out the score report.
Initially there seemed some error while scanning my fingers for bio-metric but on the second try it came out well. The test supervisor was calm through out.

Experience with gmatclub

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

Gmatclub has been helping me preparing for GMAT for the last several weeks. However, recently, i have discovered that it offers pracice tests for quantitative and verbal parts of th GMAT test. Gmatclub tests are very realistic and truly reflect what you. An expect on the test day. The variety of questions is impressive, however, it would be great to see more detailed explanations for questions. Also, it would be great to have some combined gmat tests that include both quantitative and verbal parts. The number of tests is also great, its significantly more than any other test center offers. This applies to both quantitative and verbal sections of the gmatclub tests. After trying different practice test providers, including Kaplan, Veritas and Manhattan prep, it seems that gmatclub has the most realistic and varied test questions.

Excellent Center - Could be a little hard to find

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

This center is as good as it gets for testing. The equipment is modern, clean, and functional. It could be a little hard to find the center - especially if you drive to the test center but I called them and they gave me clear instructions. I'd recommend visiting the center a day before your test.

The staff is really pleasant. I took an extra break in the middle of a session and the lady at the desk signed me out and back in quickly knowing how valuable every minute was. I would have almost run out of time in the Quant section (I'd like to think she saved me 30 odd secs). In summary, I strongly recommend this test center to GMATers in the New England area away from big cities.

Buenos Aires GMAT Test Center

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

The center was not in the best condition. When I got to the center on a Monday for the GMAT Exam, I found out that they had been painting the whole weekend. Most computers were not ready, and were still covered with a plastic. The smell of fresh paint was so fresh that after the exam I had a very bad headache. The people, however, was very friendly through the whole exam. Headphones were adequate and prevented most outside noises be heard. The location of the test center is very convenient and central, with many buses and trains dropping you off at a very short walking distance.

Relaxed environment

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

The test center in midtown is very conveniently located to major subway lines and train stations. It is a quick walk from Penn Station if you're traveling into New York City to take the GMAT.

Definitely arrive early for your test. If testing in the morning, almost all test takers arrived before the testing center was open. Once they arrived, we all filed in, took numbers, and started the initial processing. Everyone was very friendly while passing out instructions, checking IDs and getting palm scans, and providing lockers for our belongings.

They provided us with a small set of earplugs and noise reduction/cancellation headphones for use during the test. I was the first one to enter the actual testing room, and I definitely needed the headphones because the door was quite loud opening and closing with each new person entering the room.

The bathroom is a long walk down the hallway, so exercise extreme caution if using a break to go to the restroom. Assuming nobody else is taking a break at the same time, you should be fine even with the long walk there and back.
