  • i felt exactly the same as you- i thought i was going to be sick too!! it is probably the most scary thing to do but i found all my nerves were before-once i got in the car i was ok(ish!)
    Just remember it will be over so quickly and at 3pm you could be driving around-thats what kept me going- i was 7 months pregnant at the time and knew it was pass or wait a long time to try again!!
    i just kept thinking to myself "its just another lesson" and i had a lady and we talked about children the whole time so she really made me feel at ease.
    i did cry when i passed-was probably the hormones!!
    good luck x

    Good luck, it's easier said than done, but staying calm is the best thing you can do.

    I was a nervous wreck during my first test and it caused me to lose concentration, second test I took some Kalms tablets just before the test and either they worked or I was just more relaxed cos I passed with only 3 minors :D
  • I feel your pain, I only passed about 5 weeks ago on the third attempt! Just don't lose your head, remember the little things like checking your blind spot before you move off (honestly in my tests they must have made me stop and move off about 5 times each test!) and checking your mirrors regularly. Just try not to lose concentration at any point and it'll be over before you know it!

    GOOD LUCK and let us know how you get on xx

    Oh its getting closer :(

    One good point is my husband said the roads are really busy (he is a bus driver) and that means they are unlikely to venture too far from the test centre. We live at the seaside and the traffic is busy with holidaymakers at this time of year. The examiners can't afford to get stuck in nose to tail traffic. So I should get an easier route nearer the test centre. Fingers crossed anyway!
