Pros and Cons of taking a test on Sunday?!?!?

    I usually take my tests on Mondays, but since my testing center is not open on 2/20, I have scheduled BEC for the 21st. Considering that I have to work the 20th (the year at work starts in April 1st, so I just have 1 vacation day left), I was thinking on re-scheduling for the 19 which is a Sunday…..

    Any thoughts on taking the test a Sunday rather than in the “middle” of the week, Tuesday?

    I have taken tests on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. My personal fav is Saturday and a close second is Sunday. Pros:

    1) test center is pretty dead

    2) the test proctors are hungover so they don't try to talk to me (the big F off on my face helps too)

    3) I treat myself to Sunday brunch at one of my favorite spots

    4) take the afternoon off watching football, eating and day drinking

    Cons:

    1) you only have an afternoon to recoop before going to work

    2) because of work on Monday, you only get an afternoon of liquid recovery versus a whole evening of mayhem

    I know a lot of people prefer during the week but the test I took on a Monday was a disaster. The A/C was out in the center and it was in the summer and I live in TX and there was this D-Bag that kept complaining that it was hot which was aggravating and the A/C guys were banging around outside trying to fix the dang thing. That is why I don't like testing on Mondays. I know it was probably a one time thing but I don't care.

    I've taken all 3 of my previous tests on Sunday. No reason why other than it I usually start my studying for each section on a Monday and end it on a Sunday with my exam after 6 weeks or so of studying depending on the section.

    I scheduled my first 2 exams at 8am because I figured I wanted to get it out of the way early so that I can enjoy the rest of my Sunday without studying…..but I found that I couldn't sleep because I worried about oversleeping even though I had multiple alarms set LOL! So for my last exam I scheduled it for Noon and that worked out great. My AUD this coming Sunday is at 1230.

    Oh, a plus is that I don't have to use my vacation time to take off work to test during the week.

    I wish I could test on a Sunday! My testing center doesn't even have Saturdays available!
