I passed first time (with two minors). I was really nervous on the day of my test, I felt physically sick. My ex passed on his second time and he is by far the best driver I know.
Just remain calm, and if you don't pass, take the advice the examiner gives and prepare for your next test! Good luck.
good luck!! remember mirror, signal, manouver
and if you not sure if its safe to pull out then i wouldnt risk it, if you do the worst you could get is a fail, if you wait, the worst is maybe a minor
good luck and relax

I passed both theory & practical first time (4 minors). My advice would be to stay calm (easier said than done I know) and pretend you're on another driving lesson.
If you make a small mistake on a manoeuvre stop (don't keep going and make it worse) and correct it - I asked to begin again with one of mine and got it right on the second attempt.

OP...I passed first time on monday 26th september with 2 minors....If your that scared/nervous sit in someone elses car for 10-40 mins and relax in it and look at where the things are eg indicator stalks and think about the shaking/trembling if u have any beforehand to self conciouslessly control it then (don;t get over cocky when driving) I thought thinking i was gonna fail but i didn't /// so in a way think of failing cause if you do the impact won't be big! If you pass then you feel on top of this world cause u thought u would fail!
fist time, 1 minor. 
First time, 2 minors. It was amazing for me, especially when only 6 weeks before I was terrified of even turning on the ignition. 
I was incredibly nervous on the day and thought I'd made so many mistakes, but it turns out that the minors that I did get were mistakes that I had never ever made before (too fast coming off a slip road and then too slow going on a slip road! ..weird. I think that was it anyway, I can't remember, it was 2 years ago. XD)
It's hard, but you really do just have to pretend you're driving someone around for 45 minutes and forget the fact it's a test. You drive as best as you can - after all, the examiner won't know what you really can drive like if you're incredibly nervous.

Missed observations
Failing show me/tell me
Most other things can be judged as a minor or serious, it's subjective and depends on the situation.
(Too many minors in one area can lead to a serious).

A "major" fault is known as a serious fault.

Rolling back with a car behind you would be a serious fault.
Mounting the kerb.
Exceeding the speed limit.
Etc.
It's situation dependent though, it might not be classed as a serious fault if no one else was around.
