Question: Canadian writing the NCLEX in the US.. Do they use Fahrenheit only? Or Celcius? Or both

Hi folks. I live in a border city and I have the option of writing my NCLEX in Detroit, Michigan or London, Ontario. Detroit is actually closer to me.

I am wondering about conversions and naming. For example, will temperatures be listed in F or C? Or are both listed?

Also will I have to know the American brand names for things? For example Dimenhydrinate is Gravol in Canada but is Dramamine in America.

I'm inclined to pick the London testing centre just in case these small things come up and drive the extra distance.. Thought I'd ask if anyone here knows.

Thanks for any info you may have!
