If they want you to exit at a specific point, they will tell you on final or on the roll-out. Otherwise it's your choice (taking into account NOTAMs for closed taxiways, or taxiways blocked by other aircraft).

There is an art to communication with ATC. As you gain experience , a simple exchange of intentions, over the radio, is best achieved with strict adherence to the suggested pilot-controller verbiage in the FAR-AIM.

"The tower controller will consider that pilots of turbine−powered aircraft are ready for takeoff when they reach the runway or warm−up block unless advised otherwise."

I get it, they are overworked and underpaid like most of us, I just wanted Squawk's thoughts on this
