1) You will definitely be able to walk--the parking lots are connected. It took me about 5 minutes door to door.

2) There is a restaurant attached to the hotel, Genesis Bar & Grill, that opens at 11 AM and has an assortment of lunch fare, if you are sans car. The nearest Papa John's pizza has super-fast delivery to the hotel. I also noticed a Subway shop across the street the next morning on my way to the test.

3) You can bring food, drink, meds, gum, or other "personal items" to the test center, but you won't have access to refrigeration, microwaves, etc. Anything not locked in the storage cubby will sit out on a table the entire testing period.

4) Yes, you will have a 30 minute dinner break after your 5th patient encounter, and another 15 minute break after the 9th encounter.

GOOD LUCK!! I had a good CS experience in Atlanta.

just wanted to make sure agian....its okay to bring your school's white coat right? they just have to put a tape on it to cover up???

Yep--they'll put white tape over any embroidery or patches on your coat. And you can take your own stethoscope, if it's not enhanced, electronic, or otherwise super-fancy.
