examination halls

Where exams happen

Examination halls are large rooms where students take formal tests, typically at universities or for standardized assessments.

The term is more common in British English and former British colonies than in American English, where *testing center* or simply *exam room* serves similar purposes.

Hundreds of students filed into the examination hall for their final exams.
