Thanks!

The best advice I got was from my instructor, he said, don't give up if you think you've done something wrong because that's where alot of people do actually fail after they've thrown in the towel in their heads, it genuinely did help during the test

I did drive passed the turn the Tester asked me to take though lol

[Marsh.]

I've still not taken my lessons. I got a provisional 4 years ago, then couldn't afford lessons and still haven't got around to it.

[Niamh.]

I knew I'd just done it by I didn't say a word and kept driving straight, I was so nervous, the tester just said, you can turn back around at the next garage

I passed first time as well. The day before my test my mum kindly pointed out that everyone in the family had passed first time so if I didn't I would be the only one who had to redo the test.

yes, he's a very wise man is my Gav

[Ammi]

...my OH's advice was similar to your instructors..he said if you think you've messed up, just keep your cool and keep going because that's often when you can just start to do everything wrong...

[Kizzy]

Good luck jake

[Glenn.]

I was the exact opposite. I was so nervous on my first right hand turn on my test I over steered (which I had never done before), thought well that's a fail then and relaxed. Got one other minor fault and was gobsmacked it was such a doddle but I think if I hadn't made a big mistake I would have been so nervous I would have made a million others

Yeah, it was actually great advice, he told me a story about one of his other instructees (?) and all who is a brilliant driver and he made one mistake and he gave up and ended up failing, the tester told him after he wouldn't have failed for that one mistake he made but it was because he stopped trying after it. He was like my councilor as well as my instructor
