How fast seats go here

What we’ve observed at each centre since monitoring began. A median needs at least 3 observations, so some cells stay empty until there’s enough history.

How we measure: “Dates seen ahead” is the median number of days between a date first appearing on the centre’s page and the exam day, counting only dates added after our first read. “Sells out in” is the median time between seats opening and the session showing as full.
