Unfortunately there is not a No Star Option . One Star is not at all worth it. It should be lower than that. I am selecting 1 Star so that I can post it I had a very poor experience taking my AZ‑900 exam at this test center on a Saturday March 28, 2026 at 1145 am. Despite parking legally and following posted signs, I was immediately questioned about my parking and told to move my car without any clear explanation or signage. The interaction was abrupt and unprofessional. I went to my car and I did not move my vehicle. I took a picture to show my car was legally parked.Picture attached. The security screening was far more intrusive and stressful than at other Pearson VUE centers where I've tested. While I understand the need for security, the lack of consistency and clear instructions created unnecessary anxiety right before the exam. I've taken multiple certification exams at other locations and have never been treated this way. This center needs clearer policies and more professional communication to ensure a consistent testing experience. read more

Do not use this testing center. Dude started my exam before I was even at my chair and then it timed out. It used up my test voucher and I had to leave without taking the test. Very unprofessional and in a rush. Not taking his time. 0/10 - don't go here read more

I was hesitant to go here because of the negative reviews but I'm glad that I did because my experience was great! The staff made it very easy to sign in and start my test. It was a very quiet testing center and I had no problems. They offered me water during my break and were quick to answer my questions! read more

One of the worst testing centers I've been to. They are ALWAYS understaffed, and you will ALWAYS have to wait a long time to get in and take your exam. The attendees are rude, and act as if they're doing you a favor to get in and take an exam. Location needs a remodel badly--carpet is stained, and the whole building smells musty. read more

Absolutely AWFUL. I had to go here to verify an I-9 form required for a new job of mine and not only was I not seen until over an hour past my scheduled appointment time, but the rep incorrectly entered my information and caused a major headache with my employer. I do not recommend. read more

I took and passed a technical exam this morning. The staff at the facility located at 132 Quade Dr. in Cary N.C. were the most unprofessional and rude proctor staff I have ever worked with. I was escorted to the parking lot and told to point out my vehicle. As long as I am parked in an authorized spot, what business is it of theirs what I drive? There were CBD products displayed for sale throughout the testing facility. It is a testing facility or a head shop? They initially did not want to accept my federal ID nor my FL DL as proper identification since I was testing in NC. Further, I asked about the policy regarding the storage of my biometric data and photo. The response was, "Da fuck you mean?". I did not get an answer about the policy and was laughed at and ridiculed for asking a "stupid Karen question ". The ridicule continued as I was more thoroughly examined for unauthorized materials than other testers. I had to pull my shirt up, exposing my midsection to strangers, to prove I had nothing in my waistband. I felt disrespected. This facility should not be allowed to operate as a testing facility for professional certifications. read more

I had an exam scheduled for 2:00. My email said to show up at 1:30 so I arrived at 1:15. The business was closed. No big deal...I was early so I waited in my car...and waited...and called around 1:25 and left a voicemail. I ended up driving to a gas station to use the bathroom and returned and it was still closed. I had to call the test company and let them know nobody showed up and left after 2. Avoid this place if you have other options. They have a sign advertising for job positions because they can't even staff people to show up for scheduled exams. read more

I'm pretty sure that if you're going to take a test, then you're probably going to choose the one closest to you and not the one with the best reviews, but I'd figure I'd write a review and let you know what you were walking into. NC Elite Career Center is a testing center for computer-based exams. It looks like they have rooms for paper exams too, but I didn't see anyone using them, so I'm not sure they're doing that anymore. I've been into a few testing centers in my life and this one isn't too shabby. There are about 15 lockers for you to tuck your things into and locks are provided by the proctor. Cell phones are not allowed on the premise at all (even if they're off, so leave them in your car!). I didn't count, but it looked like there were about 15 computer workstations as well. Once you walk in, you have to walk around a room divider and you'll see the proctor sitting at the desk. Just tell her your name and what exam you're there to take and she'll do the necessary check-ins your exam requires (ID check, signature, or photograph), then she'll walk you to your workstation. Earplugs (brand new in a plastic baggie, whew!) are provided and pencil and paper (if your exam allows it I suppose). If your exam allows a calculator, bring your own. Also, There's one single bathroom for each gender just outside the testing room, so it isn't too far if you need to run out during your exam. I did have some computer problems during my exam, but that wasn't the proctor or location's fault. The servers hosting my particular exam went down, but the proctor did what she needed to do to figure out what steps needed to be done. Those things are bound to happen to someone since computer based exams can be glitchy. Anyway, good luck on your exam! read more

A rather unremarkable, but serviceable, experience. As I'm exploring new options for work, proctored testing seems to be part of the package Location: 4 out of 5 Tucked away in a little quiet strip mall area, seemingly all filled with consultants or other office-type ventures (as opposed to retail or restaurants). In case you find yourself lacking in "faith" of the WASP variety, you can look to the church across the street for your salvation. Or chuckles. Or extra parking, ahem. Customer Service: 3 out of 5 While I didn't find the two customer service representatives to be gushing with southern charm or hospitality, they were nice enough. A honest critique I might have is that at times, they mumbled and also spoke so quickly that it was hard to pick up on what they were saying. However, they were patient with me when I asked them to repeat themselves. Since I was already familiar with the list of prohibited items, we were able to skip the laborious process that David B seems to suggest in his review. Amenities: 2 out of 5 I've had the luxury of taking a proctored test in one of the Prometric centers in downtown Chicago, which was for lack of a better term, swank. This place...is not swank. The furniture in the waiting area as well as the lockers provided reminded me of the back room break areas that I see when I pass by the restrooms of Target or Walmart, but again - everything was functional. Testing environment: 4 out of 5 Quiet enough and the new pack of earplugs was nice. The computer screen I had was quite large, though the resolution could have/should have been sharpened just a tad (a minor gripe). The corrals are comfortable, there's hand sanitizer at each work station, and the pencils for scrap work were adequately sharpened. While noticeably lacking in British butler service, I otherwise had a stress free environment in which to take my test. Overall: 3 out of 5 There will be better, there will be worse. The closest experience I can relate this to would be a well functioning DMV: you don't have a choice but to be there, but at least it's not horrible. read more

Worst testing site ever!!! Super rude attendants! My test was at 2 PM, I arrived at 1:40 PM and didnt get called until 2:20 PM. What is the point in having appointment times if you cannot accommodate the users? I have taken 4 exams at this location using my middle name, TODAY, after waiting 40 minutes, she wouldnt check me in stating that, you name has to match exactly as it is on the ID.....maybe they should have told me this my 3 previous trips here. NEVER AGAIN! I'll drive 30 minutes out of my way to avoid this place. Would give ZERO stars if I could. read more

Agree with last reviewer, this is the worst test center. You have to wait long time and the server was down for three hours on my scheduled test time and have to reschedule test and worst customer service. read more

Worse testing experience I have had in my 20 years of taking IT related exams. The female exam administrator is OUT OF CONTROL on a power trip. She got into a yelling match with another exam candidate. The site is forcing exam candidates to not bring in cell phones into the site. She really needs to find another job that does require her to interact with clients of a business because she has no soft skills or customer service abilities. read more

My ticket said the test begins at 10 am, it also states to arrive 30 minutes early. They didn't unlock the doors until 15 minutes before 10 and had 12-15 people waiting outside. This is too stressful for some when having to take a test. read more

Very friendly staff which made check in a breeze. Would recommend using NC Elite. I work at RTP and it's a very convenient location. I've tested at this location several times and it's always a good experience read more

Awful! Drove an hour to test here. "Systems" were down. Lady stayed on the phone the entire time. Would not let us (there were about 8 people there for Praxis) know what was going on. Now ETS is saying we have to wait for the test center to make a report before we can even reschedule!! Ridiculous!! Can't they just look on their system and see that we didn't even start the test?????? read more

Do yourself and favor and do not go here! Book you exam somewhere else! I had an exam booked online (therefore this location should be open!) I took time off from work and arrived. I stood outside with 15 other people waiting for it to open. Nope. So we called and got the answering machine. We called another location and they told us the location we are at is closed on Wednesdays! So why where we able to schedule an exam for that day! 15 people standing there for an hour for nothing. The other location said they would send someone over to open the office for us so we could take our exams, they'd be here in 30 minutes. We waited and waited. Another hour later and nobody had showed up. We then called Pearson Vue and was told that 2 weeks ago someone had Covid at the location so that's why it's closed and will not be reopening. So did a staff member lie?! Whatever the reasons, awful service! Do not go here! (the Cary NC location) read more

Excellent facility for testing but the exam administrator (Rose) was very unprofessional and rude not only to myself but to others. She has no customer service skills. Recommend test takers use another facility for taking the exam. read more

So, I had the misfortune of using this testing center in Cary to take an Oracle cert yesterday. I was appalled at the behavior of the woman at the front desk. she asked me what exam i was going to take and I pointed to a section on the paper confirmation that I had in hand. At this point she goes "Don't u talk?" very rudely and in a patronizing way. She was extremely rude and patronizing while she was setting me up to take the test. I didn't want to confront her until my exam was over. After my test, I asked her what her name was. She goes "Rose". I asked her what her last name was, she goes "Just Rose, I am the only one here". At this point, I told her she was very rude to me right before i was going to take a test and I would like to know her last name because I wanted to post a review about her. She refused to give me her last name. I had no choice but to walk out. Needless to say, I filed a complaint with PearsonVue. read more
