The Law Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Good question. I'm not sure, but I believe it's in the morning... Keep your eyes open! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keith_015 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I recommend the Willis College test centre on Yonge (@ Lawrence). Very nice facility, enough lockers for everyone, big room to take a break in, test computers are in larger rooms so you don't feel like you are in a closet. Bonus is that it is less than a minute walk from the subway. Stay away from Nordic College on Dixon Rd. Terrible place: very small/crowded, kinda run down. Not enough lockers, too few staff, bathrooms are a little far away, and they seem to run many multiple kinds of tests at the same time, so it took forever just to get processed and started.

akmg13 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I also would recommend the Bloor and Yonge location. There are various small rooms and each computer station has a good amount of personal space. There were 10-12 people in the room I was in. The staff were pleasant. You're provided with the large head set/ear muffs. The computers were reasonably new. Without the head set, the keyboard clicking could be distracting. The bathrooms were under renovation on the floor where the test was, so you had to take the elevator to the floor below but it wasn't an issue for time on the breaks. I imagine the renovations will be completed by the next set of testing dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ontariostudent Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 Avoid the one far east on Bloor (I forget the name). Terrible terrible place. Old flickering computers, no lockers, hard to get to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

123coco Posted November 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 Is anyone having trouble with the location page? What am I supposed to enter, my postal code? It says it doesn't recognize it. select your province instead of your putting in your postal code...once you find the location that suits you best, click on "find a seat", if it says available click it, and you'll be on the payment page G'luck ________ Silversurfer Reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
