I heard that Microsoft just switched from Prometric to Pearson Vue. There may be other IT vendors that follow suit. Just something to think about before investing the money and time into this.

Agreed. Better to investigate Pearson Vue and Kryterion, as they seem to be picking up steam while Prometric seems to be falling by the wayside.

i'm opening it in india .In inda 95% of test centers are prometric.The main purpose of opening a test center is for GRE.In our country there more no of people are going through this GRE test.As you mentioned Pearson Vue and Kryterion,does they provide GRE test? and also did they are willing to have in inida?

I don't know about India, but in the US they expect their test centers to meet a quota (not sure the number). If you don't meet the quota, you don't get paid for administering a certain number of tests until you're back on their good side. That policy has caused every Prometric center in my town to either go Pearson Vue only, or drop testing altogether.
