TSE on Aug 23 in SF

[emgi]

I have just a few notes. I took the test this Saturday in San Francisco. The testing took place at a SF City College. The College is located in a building that is completely falling apart. I am pretty sure that it wittnessed the Gold Rush and I doubt it has been fixed since. At least they should clean the bathrooms...

I don't remember the questions but they were very similar to the ones on the official website. The test went smooth and both ancient tape recorders were working. However, there was one very annoying thing. We were crammed in a small room with all the people taking the same test (about 10-15 people). Although, the ETS people checked the microphone to see if it's working and if it's sensitive enough, some people taking the test were yelling into it (Especially one eager girl was unbearable). This was very distracting.

Otherwise, I went OK, I guess. I'm not sure what they are looking for. The beep cut me off a couple of times.

... just my five cents.
