Kind of but not really. I don't like needles so that might have made it hurt more.

Not at all. It's simply an injection, they'll tell you to come back in a couple to a few days later and that's it.

I know the allergy skin tests are like tiny little pricks around your skin. Nothing too major. Just annoying.

It was weird because it didn't hurt me at all, but the nurse beforehand told me it WOULD hurt. Like, she was warning me not to jerk my arm. She said it was
like a nasty bee sting that lasts for about 60 seconds until she finished. I felt nothing

It doesn't hurt at all, and it's super fast too.

Is it still a round set of a bunch of little needle pricks? Or is that just from when I was little.

It was quick, easy and just a very tiny prick. Barely felt it
