The day of your test is here…. Read take note and remember
🍺Put any thoughts of drinking alcohol or taking drugs – either the night before or on the day of your test – out of your mind. It might seem an obvious thing to say, but it doesn’t make it any less important!
🫗. 🍌 Have some food and stay hydrated. There’s nothing worse than having the jitters before and during your test and focusing on a growling stomach will disturb your concentration.
⏰ an hour-long lesson before your test. This’ll give you the chance to have a last-minute practice, brush up on manoeuvres and loosen up a little bit.
🔉It’s perfectly acceptable to let the examiner know if you have any additional support needs. English is not my first language? Or you suffer with anxiety. The examiner would be more than happy to accommodate this, and even repeated each instruction twice.
🧷During your test, make safety your number one priority. If you’ve been told to go left, but you are in a right only lane for example, go where the lane takes you. You might have to pull over and allow your examiner to reroute, but what is important is that you demonstrate your ability to follow traffic rules and are always aware of your surroundings.
👂🏻After your test, whether you pass or not, pay close attention to your examiner’s feedback. This is what will be most useful to you afterwards.
✔️Finally, stay safe, trust yourself and your instructor and take your test as a learning experience, regardless of the outcome. 🏁🍀
