How was your testing Venue?

Took mine in Franklin,TN. The only thing they could have done better was provide padded seats. I brought my one cushion but had to adjust it every 5 minutes. The place was in an isolated wing of a fairly new community bldg. Very quite and comfortable. The proctors were also very accomodating and reasonable. I was very pleased with the site.

So glad to hear that at all the test sites folks were allowed food/snacks in some capacity during the exam. In NYC, there were NO food and NO drinks allowed in the room. After I checked in and was walking to my seat I was eating a pop tart, my proctor approached me and told me I would be immediately dismissed if the pop tart did not disappear, and this was at 7:15, 45 mins before the exam even started. I thought this was a little abusive and a little "power trippy".

Anchorage Alaska exam site was very nice with one exception - cheap padded folding chairs for 8 hours. I brought a memory foam pillow to sit on this time and was fairly comfortable (up to the last hour or so). Room was well lit (with some natural lighting from skylights which was nice), the perfect temperature, and very quiet. Test location was in a church, so the audible profanity was kept to a minimum. No escorts to the bathrooms, and food and drink were allowed, but not on the tables.

The proctor said several times that we were a great group (everyone showed up, we were quiet and followed instructions) but I don't think we get any points for good behavior.

Nice Irish Pub right across the street that served a really good Rueben sandwich. No parking close, but I got dropped off, so it didn't matter too much.

All in all, a good location.

Could you see Russia from your testing location?

You would need really good eyesight to see Russia from Anchorage.

One word: Lasik. Or telescope.

Perry, GA site is good with climate control and park right outside the testing site.

It was a pretty good site but it would have sucked if it had been raining (like the October '08 exam).
