Hi there,
Anyone living in Houston?
I’m scheduled to retake FAR next Wed and i’m hoping the roads will be okay.
Is anyone scheduled to test over the weekend or Monday?
Be safe!

I knew that, but I do not know how to reschedule my exam. I emailed the board and they said prometric would call me the morning of my exam to reschedule. This is very stressful. I don't know why we would have to wait until the morning of our exams to reschedule.

Lots of possible reasons why summer, maybe the prometric you're testing at is still closed and there's nobody there to reschedule you, maybe the conditions at that center are too “iffy” to make a decision, or maybe as of right now your scheduled sit date is still a go.

@summer – I rescheduled online. when you go to prometric website, there is “reschedule/cancel” on the top right of the page. you might have to pay some fees though

i attempted that but there are no dates available beyond the original 09/10 date. i am not sure what to do. what testing center did you schedule for? i'm so confused. i cannot wait until the morning of my exam to know if i am eligible to reschedule.

I guess I'm not understanding why you're stressing out. The State Board is going to allow you to test in October, and you wont have to pay any additional fees. Use this time to study more and test at the opening of the window.

because i do not have any clarification on when i can reschedule? what if they don't let me reschedule…does anyone know how it works? there are not any testing dates available to reschedule thru the prometric site at this time.

Try not to stress, easier said than done (I know!). Try calling prometric, if the center you are supposed to test at does not answer try this # 1-800-580-9648. If that doesn't work try calling The TX Board, the general # is 512-305-7870.

thank you so much. i did call both the board and the prometric main line and they said that someone from prometric would call me the morning of my exam, which seems odd to me. Maybe I should wait to call them Tuesday after things have calmed down a bit. it has been a crazy week in houston.

i just don't want to assume i can extend and then the morning of my exam they say i need to come in that day. it is all stressful enough.

I spoke to a rep at the State Board and he specifically told me that they were allowing extensions up to 10/31 and they they would be sending out notices, once everything calms down. (I'm in Houston too btw). I just don't see them not giving us an extension, as some people have lost everything.

Hi there
You have to call Prometic and wait to talk to a live person.
It's annoying but that is that only way to get it done.
They will send you a confirmation email.
Good luck!

i called parametric and spoke to a live person and they said i could not reschedule bc there were no dates available.

[iamstrong]

Prometric called me and said I can come early because there are extra seats at the harwin location

[CLN]

Good luck to those taking it today!! Drive safely, so many roads heading to Harwin are closed I've heard! I am going to try and drive the route today to make sure I can get there

[pharaoh]

That's odd because when I rescheduled online (Harwin location) there was plenty of days available.
