From 8am until, roughly 8:30, the staff and examinees wait in a room to collect the registration forms, distribute the numbered pins examinees wear on their coats, go over some rules, etc. Around 8:30, everyone moves to the break room for a formal orientation which lasted until around 9am. The exam started around 9am and ended btwn 3:10-3:20. This was at the Chicago site.

This was pretty much the same for Houston, except we probably got out around 3:30 to 3:45. For those who might forget either their stethoscope or lab coat, don't panic. They do have extras. One guy in my group had lost his luggage and was panicking!
I took mine in Houston. There were a bunch of us there at 7:30 AM. We registered and just chitchated in the registration room till everyone arrived. Got out around 3:20 PM.
The exam (in LA) is just like everyone else has said. It is located on the 13th floor of an office building. I don't know what accomodations you have made for the night before or if you are driving from home, but I enjoyed staying in a hotel that was within walking distance so that I didn't need to worry about catching a cab or dealing with the hotel's shuttle service prior to the exam.
