I feel your pain--- I had the same experience with my PearsonVue. I was so use to the simplicity of Clep and Dsst that PearsonVue was a total shock. I could not believe how far in advance they were booked at Pearson Vue. You definitely have to plan for the ECE's very carefully to time it to coincide with your studying. The reason Pearson is like this is because they conduct hundreds of different types of tests (not just ECE)--- Medical Boards, Dental Boards, Real Estate, Insurance, and the list goes on and on. My PearsonVue is open 7 days a week, 12 hours a day, and totally booked like a month in advance. And good luck trying to get a weekend spot. Fortunately, I can test during the week so that wasn't a factor for me. But I will say PearsonVue is highly professional place-- very tight security, all your stuff put in a locker, check your ID and take palm prints of your hand etc. They are professional and well run in my opinion. I am glad you posted this thread to give others a head's up!!
