    I took the 070-620 recently and passed got 871 so a good score the exam was not what I expected though there was quite a few simulation questions and I thought there was only going to be multi choice but still done well so its all good, but the reason for this thread is more to do with the testing centre where I took the exam.

    I usually take my exams at either http://www.globalknowledge.co.uk/about_us/training_locations/london.aspx or http://www.qa.com/training-locations/london-middlesex-street now both these test centres have been excellent good equipment allowing me to start early nice quiet rooms etc. but unfortunately they were both fully booked when I wanted to take my exam so I went for another testing centre.

    http://www.lcbc.com/index2.asp if you have ever searched for training providers these ones always appear quite near the top and there website is quite good, so I booked with them. They are based in Bethnal Green and it took some finding as the “college” is off the main street in between some apartments, the door was securely closed so I used the buzzer to get in after 10 minutes of using the buzzer I called them up to get them to let me in.

    Once in the building it looked like it had seen better days and the equipment did not seem that great and when the bloke saw what exam I was taking he said “the 620 has some simulations that cause the exam to crash it might happen a few times” Not sure if anyone has ever heard of that before?

    Well it crashed around 20 times and I had to go find him every time once he was having his lunch and asked me to wait a second while he finished. He was helpful and friendly enough but still was quite annoying when taking an exam to have to walk around looking for him every five minutes.

    So if you are ever taking an exam in London the first two I mentioned are very good and the third is OK if you just need to take an exam (if the exam didn’t keep crashing would have been fine) but if you are going to take a course there I would look round first.
