Pearson Professional Centers

I’ve been to several Pearson centers and I have found the staff here to be efficient and friendly. The one star review needs to realize that what she is complaining is out of the proctors’ control. I am sure if she raised her hand to say she needed a new marker, they would have given her a new one.
If you need to take an exam, don’t hesitate to book this location!

I strongly resented my testing experience at this Pearson center. The old man running the place is extremely bitter, rude, and hates his life. Who hired this man? You would think that such a place with high anxiety and tension would hire someone a bit more welcoming and kind. It wouldn’t kill you to lighten up.
The markers they give you don’t work. This was the worst part. How am I going to take a test when I can hardly write? I was extremely frustrated while taking my test especially during the math section IN WHICH I NEED A WORKING MARKER TO DO MATH!
You’re not allowed to wear a watch, but if you step out and return past the amount of minutes you’re allotted for your break, that’s on you. Well, if you won’t tell me how much time I have left and I can’t wear a watch, let me just rely on the ticking clock inside my brain –_​–
Every time you come and go, they make you scan your hand on the hand scanner device. On my final way out, I was shaken up and extremely tired from my exam. I was the last person there. This man made me scan my hands at least a dozen times because it wasn’t working (hands were sweaty). He. would. not. let. it. go. Dude, have some mercy for someone who just finished a 4 hour-​long exam.
Overall, taking my exam at this center added to my test anxiety and I’m dreading having to return here for my exam retake.

I am what you call a professional test taker. I don’t know how many tests I have taken but I definitely have a collection of alphabet soup acronyms over the years.
I have been taking professional tests with Pearson for the past 15 years of my life and thus far, I would say they are decent.
This location is in a large medical building. On Saturday morning, I arrive bright and early and found a huge parking lot all to myself. What a weird feeling? Space can be such an issue in NYC, but not out here in Long Island.
The testing center is on the 2^nd floor. All Pearson test centers look the same. No frills, but comfy. All carpeted and with many computer stations. The staff here helpful, friendly and efficient. Computer station was clean and comfortable even for 7 hours of test taking.
I am sure I’ll be visiting more Pearson test centers in the future but not by choice. Hey at least my experience while taking a test was positive.
