Let's say there are multiple test centers to choose from, but one is different from the rest because it has freebies to offer only to registered clients. Assuming a friend has just given you that tip, and he says:
"You can get free review materials when you register to/for/from their test center."
Which is the correct preposition?
In your example, it's probably register 'with'.
You register for an activity
I want to register for the 10k race next weekend.
You register with an organization.
Since I'm 18, I have to register with the draft board.
You might register with the organization at a particular location.
I'm going to register with the voting commission. I think I can do that either at their main county office or at the town hall.
In your example:
You can get free review materials when you register with their test center.
Can I do that online?
No, you have to do it at the test center itself.
