I think any of the locations others refer you too will either have scheduled days, and times, or by appointment. I don't think you can literally walk in somewhere and take it. Do a Google search, I think there are some web sites, or downloads that allow you to test yourself on a trial basis, if you're just curious what it's like, or how well you might do.

Steve,
Thanks for the tip. I've been thinking about doing since I was in high school. This afternoon I passed the practice tests 7 out of 10 times. I'm gonna follow through this time.
