Check the test center before you register

[learner72]

Hi all,

Please check the test center before you register for test. Because some internet cafes are also conducting the test. I gave test in that kind of center. People were coming & going and the test administrator also talking to the customers. Some one was browsing the computer next to me and he got a call and he was answering. After the test, I complained to the test administrator about these conditions in his center but he never cared for that. He said "if you want to complain go ahead and complain to ets". So please check the center before you register for test.

Or just take IELTS instead! Their centers are all excellent, and their own.

To check out the testing center early, if there is space you can change your testing center, ETS will charge you, but that is the price you have to pay. Also try to change the center at least 1 week in advance, or they won't let you.

Before many of the COMP USA stores closed down, some of them were used as a testing center.
