I am so surprised that this test center does not have any reviews. I booked my GRE a little late, so I ended up making the drive from Boston to Warwick to take the test. I am so glad that it ended up working out this way. In contrast to the traffic and noisy waiting rooms that others have to deal with in the more urban locations, I had a relatively peaceful test day. There was no traffic near the center and plenty of parking. I was sick as a dog when I took the test, and the ladies there were as warm and accommodating as they were allowed to be (which, due to the strict rules of Prometric, ended up being more warm than accommodating). I'm not sure if the testing room is particularly unique, but I found everything very comfortable. I ended up focusing a lot better in that room than I did when I took practice tests, which worked out (very) well for me. Also, the center is near the airport, so there are lots of inexpensive hotels nearby. For a little extra money, I was able to drive down the night before the exam to make the day even more stress free. Taking standardized tests is rarely a fun or relaxing experience, but this test center is set up in a way that makes it as painless as possible. If it isn't obvious, I should caveat that the five star review is relative. While my experience was awesome compared to other experiences taking standardized tests, it wasn't so fun that I want to do it all again :-)
I did learn one major lesson, though. The lockers that you need to put your belongings in are small, and you must fit your things in them. Don't be like me and bring a giant leather purse that doesn't bend well. It's random, but I wish I knew that in advance!
Another random thing that I learned is that taking the GRE on MCAT day is pretty awesome. It does a great job at putting GRE stress into perspective and making it look like an easy/fun test! read more
