I recently gave my GMAT Exam (Nov 7, 2022) at Pearson Gurgaon.

The Center is located in an IT Park near MG Road Metro Station. at a walking distance, less than a kilometer. I had the 10 AM Slot. I reached half an hour before. Stayed at a hotel nearby in the same locality since I do not live in Delhi-NCR.

I already knew that the center would be decent given that Pearson manages it, but I was thoroughly impressed. The test center staff was very professional throughout my test. Lockers are available to you to keep a bag. Do wear a mask, they're pretty strict about that.

The workstations were nicely maintained, and the monitor was quite huge, maybe 27 inches or more, in size. I was also given noise-cancellation headphones. It did help during the Verbal Reasoning Section and AWA.

Overall I was quite happy with my test-taking experience at this center. If you're planning to go here and have any doubts, don't think anymore and just finalize it.

P.S. You can also take a break, in accordance with GMAT Exam Rules, but you cannot go outside the center itself. I would advise everyone to keep a water bottle, even though water dispensers are available. Same for snacks.

After I had a terrible experience at one of the non-Pearson centers a couple of years ago, I vowed to never trust these again and go only for the Pearson VUE official centers. And writing this review after my GMAT, I couldn't be prouder of my decision. I would highly recommend this center to all test-takers in Delhi-NCR.

The Pearson Professional Center at Gurugram is conveniently located inside Times Tower, which is situated on the main MG road at a 500m walking distance from MG Road Metro Station, providing great connectivity for Yellow line suburbs. Times Tower has a professional office space environment and is leased by leading corporates, hence you will find great amenities inside the building, including a full-blown cafeteria that you can visit pre/post-exam.

The Pearson center is located on the 2nd floor. The staff inside is super polite and respectful, and infuses a cheerful atmosphere that completely eases your exam nerves. The center is huge from within, is kept very clean, has ambient lightings, and 100% sound proofing from outside. It has a has a large waiting area, spacious lockers, super clean restrooms, and 2 exam rooms which can host about 10 students each. I had an afternoon slot on a working day so I didn't find a lot of test-takers, I guess there were only about 3-4 of them.

After a quick passport scan, photograph, and palm scan, I was allotted a locker and was led to the instruction zone where one of the staff members explained me various details and another led me inside to the testing room where I was provided a large fully sanitized workstation, scratch pads, and a fresh set of markers. After that it was business as usual until I left, nothing noteworthy.

Good luck to everyone.

PS: One thing to note is that although there are digital wall clocks in the center they are easy to miss from your field of sight. Take great care to stick to the time-breaks, it is easy to overshoot them by a minute or so, like it happened once with me, and panic might set in easily if the next section is your nemesis.
