how much have you revised ?

I passed first time its not that hard
have you got the app by DSA
thats the most similar thing to the actual test
The multiple choice questions are easy and definitely doable in one day, just common sense and a few minor facts. The Hazard Perception will take a lot longer, if you've not revised that then you've failed lel.

I have the DSA dvd's that I'm revising from. Idk yet. I think I can do it in one day but still it's a lot.
It is easy, you can revise the morning before and still pass. It is common sense.

As long as you have common sense I a vague understanding of how roads work you should be fine.
The multiple choice test is fine, hazard perception is where people struggle. Since when do you go around in your car clicking a button for every single hazard? In my eyes, everything is a hazard. A tree could fall down, a sinkhole could open in front of you. Click too many times, you fail. Don't click and you still fail.

The hazard perception is easy. The dangers are obvious.

Hazard perception does seem easy to me. Don't want to jinx it now though and fail..
Yes the dangers are obvious, but it is clicking in time that can be an issue. You can click as soon as you see the hazard but can get zero points because the system hadn't started counting down the score. You have to use a method of clicking twice to ensure you at least score.

i passed very comfortably with one evening of revision the night before. concentrate on things u wont know ie obscure signs, stopping distances, hazard perception. dont bother reading through the book, just do mock tests online

keep practising it and see if you can change the date if possible

I haven't done my driving test yet (no point with going to a uni with no parking in certain accommodation) but my boyfriend found this was an issue and so did several other people. I didn't believe him, but I took the test and it is ridiculous. One example I can remember is that I saw that a car was parked ridiculously far from the pavement and close to being in the road, but when I spotted it was far too early. Someone I knew just took to spamming the button when they saw a hazard, but I wouldn't advise doing that.
mine on 20th too
