test centers

Where exams happen

Test centers are facilities where standardized examinations are administered—college entrance exams, professional certifications, driver's license tests, and the like.

They provide controlled environments with proctoring to ensure exam integrity.

I scheduled my GRE at a test center downtown.

The term also applies to medical facilities offering diagnostic screening: COVID test centers, drug testing centers.
