GMAT Test Centre in Kuala Lumpur / Petaling Jaya

I have received a couple of e-mails regards GMAT test centres in Kuala Lumpur or Petaling Jaya. Apparently, some could not find any centre listed in mba.com. After checking with Willy, the GMAT coordinator at Wordware Distributors (M) Sdn. Bhd., this is his reply:

"While you searching the GMAT Test center for your test, Wordware name always appear at the bottom. Perhaps you try to search for 10 or 20 centers, you will able to locate Wordware Distributors name at the bottom of the list."

Under Find a Test Center, enter "Kuala Lumpur" in the search box and then scroll down the result page. Click "Display more test centers" link. Wordware Distributors is listed as No. 7.

Good luck!
