Hey all,

I'm going to Philly in April to take the COMLEX-PE. Anyone already taken the exam have any travel tips? What were your experiences?

Did you take the train from the airport or rent a car/van?
Where is a good place to stay to be on time for the exam at 8am?
Did anyone stay in hotels not listed on the NBOME website?
How bad is Philly traffic? Are there carpool lanes?
Is there enough time after the exam is finished (~3:30pm) to get to the airport for a 6pm flight?

The NBOME website has some information, but it's a bit vague. Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated.

How bad is Philly traffic? Not too bad. you are probably going in the opposite direction of traffic. At least this was my experience. Are there carpool lanes?

Is there enough time after the exam is finished (~3:30pm) to get to the airport for a 6pm flight? 5:00 pm flight. Was there with plenty of time to spare!

There is a parking lot right next to the building that is free and close.

Hope this helps and Good Luck!
