Test center review

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

I was scared of taking the test at a physical location at first due to covid. But this test center has maintained the really good hygienic standards such as temperature checks, limited staff, hand sanitisers at every corners etc.They are very strict in physical checks as well. They have done throughly checked my pockets, glasses and masks(a bit overkill if you as me).

The test center was also very peaceful. The desk, notes, pens are sanitised in front of me as well. The noise cancellation headphones provided were great. I could comfortably finish my exam. Over all, This center and its staff adhered to very best standards.

Pleasant exam taking experience

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

I reached the test center location quite sometime before the actual test time. They anyhow began the verification process when I was comfortable with, and began with my test 15 minutes prior to the scheduled time. All the staff were very friendly and not to the slightness did they made me feel any pressure. Had a bit a problem with the signature not matching on my passport and the digital signature I gave on test day. The lady staff took care of that and calmly asked to sign again. One advice that i would give is to thoroughly check with the markers they provide. If you feel you want to get it changed, do it. You have paid for it.

Great centre

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

The test center was not too difficult to find. It is in a one-story building, with lots of parking around it. The people who work at this site are all very friendly. They provide all the things you need for the test and very quick in reacting when you raise your hand for additional help. The computers, tables, etc are clean and the chair is not uncomfortable to sit in. Overall its a good site to take the test. It's a pretty quiet facility, so you wont get too much distraction besides the typing noise of other people. They do have ear plugs you can use to avoid the typing noise

Very Professional

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by post count [?]

This test center (Begumpet area) is just what a GMAT exam needs. I was surprised and extremely impressed with their professionalism and neatness with which they conducted the whole of 4 hours of test for each and every candidate. Repeating every necessary step with a smile on their faces and very prompt.
I was pretty scared how the people would be conducting the test of such importance, but the atmosphere was just what one needs to stay focused on their exam, with no worries about the nitty gritties.
I am more surprised because of my bad experience at the other center in Hyderabad, which can be rated at 1 when compared to this center. All's well that ends well!
For those planning to take someone with them for support, please be informed that there is no waiting room here, so you need to have other arrangements for your partner/friend to stay while the test goes on. Sitting outside the center will not be a feasible option, as inside the center only the candidates are allowed. Once the test is over, you have to promptly collect your belongings and score (if reported) and leave.
To some it may feel uncomfortable, but I think this is how they maintain the sanctity of the test center which is crucial to our performance too.

GMAT Test Center -hyderabad

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by score report [?]

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.

Good Pearson VUE Test Center at Hyderabad

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

Hello All,
I took up my GMAT around 2 and half months ago. I booked up my appointment at the only center at Hyderabad (available during that time of my test) and to my surprise the center representatives were so friendly and that really helped me calk down. I believe it is really necessary to calk down your nerves before you take up the GMAT. The scratch pad and the pen were working fine and i was instructed to not keep the pen cap open for a longer period of time.
Please let me know if you would like to know any other details of this test center and i will be happy to help.
Other facilities were just fine.
Thanks !

Hi Nivie,

Hope you had a good test exp! Which one was your center? Mine was the one in Madhapur and it had multiple outages, the sanctity of exam was lost as outages kept on happening until the middle of verbal section! I have complained to GMAC but so far nothing in last 2 weeks. They are "investigating". I don't expect them to do anything favourable.

Next time I am going to take begumpet location, hope it goes smoothly once and for all!

Edu Kinect Madhapur center is not good. They don't provide a good environment to write test. You will frequently face outage, center people frequently walk in test room and talk loudly, monitor screens are outdated and blurred, lot of noise as locker is just opposite test room, scratch note is not clean and sketch pens are dried. So you would struggle to get a peaceful environment to concentrate and difficult to write while rough work. Better stay away from Edu Kinect Madaphur center.

Invigilator Reviews : Professional.
Environment : Comfortable. Ear plugs provided. Lockers are rather small. Not allowed to wear jacket over the t-shirt for security reasons.
