Driving test nerves

Does anyone know how to get rid of driving test nerves or at least cope with them?
I have got rescue remedy but I don’t feel it works.
I failed my last 2 driving test and it was because of my nerves leading me to do silly mistakes


update: i passed today- i wasn’t nervous at all i don’t know why but i think that was a contributing factor to why i passed!

Practise, experience, and more practise. When you reach a level that takes you well beyond the basic level of a driving test, then even though your standard may drop on the day you will still be good enough to pass. It's up to your instructor (and yourself) to reach that standard.
