I took it in Brooklyn too. What did you think of the facility? I thought it was hot, noisy, and could not understand the proctors at all when they gave direction.
Cannot disagree more. I took Villanova the first time i took the test. It is a great course on electrical engineering but not a test prep course. It had tons of information that I honestly believe wasted valuable studying time for me. The GA Tech course on the other hand I believe was very good...
I am surprised how many PE/MBAs there are here. I am one also...finished up last August.
