ECE - Pearson Vue

[marianne202]

I'm sorry about your experience. First of all you can register online with Pearson Vue and see far in advance the test dates and availability. You also can usually register for the exam within 24 hours after you pay for your exam through EC. I would pay for my exam when I knew I would or had to take it, then I would login the next day to the Pearson Vue website and register for a test date that looked good. If I wasn't ready as that test day neared I would just reschedule it online. I once talked to Pearson Vue corportate because I had a hard time scheduling online as all the dates were full, but when I got to the test center it was empty and the staff was complaining it has been so slow for weeks! I could have tested sooner. The staff complained the online scheduling is flawed, but I was never able to get my local center to call me back when I left a message. Corporate stated online is the best way to schedule, unless you need a same day or next day appt. then the center would know about cancellations over the online system. Pearson Vue is very different from the CLEP/DSST centers I have tested at, but they are more professional. If you do another ECE, just pay as soon as you know you will have to take the exam and register with PV in advance, then move your date if you need to down the line. Less stress that way! Good luck!
