well, I asked my wife to ask for the exam fees over the phone but my wife said hopkins won't tell her the fees over the phone and instead asked her to come into their office so they can explain the fees to her which I found a bit odd. Considering my wife has to travel long distance to go to their office in Manila.

looks like hopkins are setting their exam fees based on what you're wearing when you enter their office door i.e if you came in wearing GUCCI label then your exam fees is higher than someone wearing no label at all.
