Does anybody have any reviews/opinions about this testing site?. I really wanted Concordia as its closer, but it was full before I could register. So i had to choose Saddelback. Also, I plan on checking every once in a while to see if an opening in Concordia opens up, has anybody done this, do openings occur when people change their testing cites, or cancel the test? Thank you!

thats good to know!, and hey this june will be my first time, so I was curious. I do not have a car, so will be taking a cab there, and I would have my cellphone with me so that once I am done with the test, I can call call a cab or a friend to pick me up. I do know that we are not allowed to have cell phones with us in the testing room, so when u took it the test last time, did the proctor collect the cell phones? Otherwise, I was unsure what should I do, I thought maybe I can hide it in the bushes somewhere outside the testing room. Thanks!

Whatever you do, make sure it's not in your possession when you check-in and don't try to hand it to a proctor. The rules are really strict that you cannot have it in your possess in the test center meaning from when you check-in until it's over and if caught with one they write you up for misconduct, which isn't good. In the past some people have brought it with them and tried to ask a proctor where to put it/to hold it and got written up for that since they still had it after checking in. You have to find somewhere outside the test center like the bushes or something.

Thank you so much Jeffort!. Yes, I will really make sure that I do not have it with me once I check in. And do you also happen to know anything in particular about this testing site, any things positive/negative?

All the direct feedback I've gotten from students that have taken it there has been consistently good year after year. Good desk space, well run, etc. It's a good facility, nothing to worry about.

Awesome!, I wanted another testing site concordia which was closer. But, atleast I am happy that this site is good. This gives me a piece of mind. Thank you once again!

Are the test takers at this test location gathered in 1 room then separated into MUCH smaller rooms with separate desks (like less than 15 test takers) or are they separated into rooms with 30+ test takers, sharing desks?

The last place I tested had about 12 people a room, each with their own desks.

Yes i registered a while back, and i was able to get only Saddleback. I was dissapointed that I couldnt get Concordia. Are you on a waitlist? my lsat prep tutor told me that spots might open up later.
