Steve, I did the BAR twice (don't ask) last October at Evergreen College. The couple of guys that handle the actual testing were very nice, but rigid about the paperwork as would be expected. The first time I went it was a 3:10 PM appointment and the atmosphere was quiet and relaxed. The place was almost vacant. The second time I went was a 9:40 AM appointment and the atmosphere was chaotic. They also run a technical/mechanical school right there as well and I had about 100 people surrounding my car asking all sorts of questions, peering over and under the car, while I was waiting. Many of mechanics-in-training were not guys you would invite to your kid's birthday party. The parking inside the ref area is non-existent and ingress and egress was difficult at best. Bottom line: I would make a PM appointment, if possible.
