[QUOTE=Flower Dance]Oh right.

I hope I'll pass pretty quickly... I don't want to be one of those people who take the test 20 times.[/QUOTE]
Yeah me too, im a realy good driver, when i concentrate properly, so my instructor says. Apparently i do it all too quickly and need to slow down.

my friend failed their theory 20 times :eek: That's like £210, and took three times to past their actually test another £150. The next day they crashed their car :-\

before you say "my friend" doesn't mean me
/past on both 1st time, full marks on questions 72 on hazard perception, on actual test 3 minors, never crashed.

Jev 06-13-2006 04:42 PM

Jesus,did they not read the theory book at all or something?

PAJJ 06-13-2006 04:48 PM

God knows, i could maybe see someone failing the theory once, poss twice, but honestly 90% of it is common sense.

That was the same for me when i passed, one was a corsa, and one a focus, and you'll slow down alot for your test, i was always been told i did things too quickly.

Untitled 06-13-2006 04:49 PM

How many marks can you drop, its only like 10 or less isnt it?

I think im geting all the CD's for my lessons of fmy instructor next lesson, he gives them us for free.

Yeah, but its not like he's making myself go slowly, its just to "give myself chance"

He just gets fustrated because i know i can do it, and he knows i can do it, i just always go over the speed limit, a bit to fast around corners, nothing dangours, but he wants me to slow it down a bit.

I do get shouted a lot for driving with one hand, on the bottem of the stearing wheel though.

PAJJ 06-13-2006 05:02 PM

Yeah, i wasn't saying don't practise you'll be fine, just saying that you drive/or i did anyway alot better on my actual test because i concentrated alot more.

and 15 minors you get for the test

Yeah, s'been pretty good

I've come to the conclusion that mine's a hell of a commute. It's not that far, but it's by public transport ... I was on buses today for 3 hours, and at work for 3.

lol

But HMV's really good so far. Everyone's cool, I'm getting the hang of the work. I'm reet until someone comes and asks me something >.>

How about the theory?

And ive been saying for about 3/4 weeks now. I think if it was just driving around, i would pass the test, i just need to polise up my manouvers. I dont practice them enough though i feel, but i love just driving.

I think lower 6th in my college go back today.

The A-level also start today, i have my first proper exam today :(

Its only general studies. Its kinda hit and miss, if a subject comes up you know about then youre set, but totaly screwed if something you dont know comes up.

Patrick O))) 06-14-2006 03:29 AM

Good luck man

Cheers, hopefully it will be on something i know about, :thumb:

Patrick O))) 06-14-2006 03:38 AM

General Studies is a piece of piss

In my exam there was the question: "Susan says goodbye to her family before she sets off to work at 8:00 am. She arrives at work at 8:30am. At 9:00am her husband and son are killed in a car accident. Susan is told about this at 9:30am. Susan said 'I think I already knew somehow.'

"How could Susan be proved right/wrong? Explain your answer."

That's how much of a joke that exam is. I got a B, and never went to a General Studies session

Untitled 06-14-2006 03:41 AM

Yeah, the questions are ridiculas.

Last year we got that riddel thing, the fox hen and straw have to taken over a river, the fox can be left with the hen, the straw cant be left with the hey, or something. I cant remember how but i got it right. A lot of people i know just said but the straw and hen in the boat and make the fox swim
