Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Will they have a medic on hand to stitch you up, if needs be?
There's a fire station across the street.
The people in the last test were the luckiest ever -- a doctor (and a dentist, now that I think about it) was among the candidates. But he got knocked out, so he had to stop taking the test. Okay, he wasn't lucky, but they were, because he stayed around and dispensed emergency first aid as required. I may need to find a med student who'll be all ready to go by the time I might get to test.
hehehe

Defending against live knife.
Holy cow. Didn't you tell us somebody inevitably gets cut in a knife fight?
I learned a lot of things from karate, but perhaps the best was the understanding that the part of my brain that works out physical things is nearly non-verbal -- if someone gives me instructions, what I really need is to step through the desired movement at half or quarter speed, and repeatedly, until the kinesthetic brain can think its way through without resorting to words.
That's when I realized I truly wasn't a klutz, I just had a learning disability. t knock wood To this very day, I've never broken a major bone, or for that matter delicater ones like digits and nose, et cetera. Last year when I tried curling and wiped out, the instructors were actually really impressed by how well I'd fallen.
You gotta earn the privilege of playing with real knives. And don't think people don't -- the part of a putative black belt test I'm least looking forward to? Defending against live knife.
Yikes, ita! I mean, I understand the whole preparedness aspect of it. If you've successfuly defended against a real one, it's less likely to phase you if someone pulls one on the street, but still. Yow.
Apple store and Lush in one afternoon? Not sure I could handle that.

At least she's not a stick fighter.
I could totally fight a stick. Grab it, break it over one knee, and it's paralyzed.
It sucks to be me, la la la la la! Move along, nothing to see here.
