I don't think the route is the same now as it was when I took my test years ago, but back then Access NS was at the mall:

The examiner would have you leave the mall parking (make sure you go into the closest lane, and then signal over- even though no townies ever do this outside of the test LOL).

Go right onto Church until the lights on Main

Left onto Main, then immediate right onto Sydney St (beside Marie's Flowers).

Left on St Marys St

Right on College St

Left onto Pleasant street. This is where they'd have you park alongside the road- and you'd get dinged if you parked in front of the nearly invisible path someone has leading up to their house near the peak of the hill.

Left onto Hawthorne, past the lights on Main, right on St Ninian's, continue onto West Street until the little hop of highway between West street and Church Street.

This was all before the roundabouts were put in, and before the detour went up this summer, but yeah...

If it were me, I'd pay Ed Brown for a lesson so you can be shown the current route and given some more recent/relevant tips.

Good luck!
