Standby Testing
Hi all,
I'm not very good with deadlines, so I've missed the opportunity to sign up for the GRE subject test in computer science. None of the schools I'm applying to require it (at worst it's "strongly recommended", but many don't require it at all), but I figure I'd better take it anyway since I think I can score highly.
The ETS has this to say about standby testing:
"Standby testing may be available if sufficient space, test materials, and staff are available at the test center. If you'd like to attempt to test as a standby, report to the test center by 8:15 a.m. with".
Has anyone had any luck with this? Is there likely to be space? The test center is over an hour away, so I don't want to go if it's unlikely to work.
