Test Tomorrow

squishywishy

Have my driving test tomorrow and im really starting to panic.
failed the last one by letting my nerves get to me and really dont think i can face sitting it if i dont get it tomorrow. I've passed all my pretests both in prep for this test and the last but there is just something about the actual test that makes me do silly things that i usually never do.

Any tips or hints to help me get through this would be great. Love this forum, tis great help!!

All I can say is try your best to stay positive. You've passed your pre-tests, and that proves you know your stuff. It would be a terrible pity to fail just because of a testers presence. Focus on getting that L-plate off your car.

My sister swears by this to keep her calm during interviews etc. You can get it in Boots or any good chemist.

Best of luck tomorrow. Let us know how you get on!

Thanks,
Have some of the bachs stuff here so ill try it.
Im sooooo determined to pass but im freaking out cos i failed that last time and im starting to delve into the 'What If' stage of nerves which is only making me panic.
Gonna go out later and reverse around a few corners etc and try get an early night

Just reading the reviews on that link you gave, it contains 27% alcohol and tastes of whiskey...maybe that wouldn't be such a good idea:eek:. Forget over the counter remedies, it's all in your head, just imagine you're doing a pre test and go for it, there is nothing to fear, nothing bad will happen to you. I would say just try and relax and go for it, try not to get flustered and never second guess yourself. Best of Luck.

You only take literally a few drops.
The whole bottle has something like 15mils.
You can also buy alcohol free pastilles.

Squishy were you honestly as prepared the last time as you are this time?
I bet you weren't.
Thats the difference, that is why you won't make silly mistakes tomorrow, and why you'll fly through your test.

I've used that before college exams before and I know many others who have taken it.

Good luck and try to relax

I lol'd when I read that! I've tried it myself, it tastes a bit funky alright. Must have a look around and see if I can find the leaflet that goes with it. Dont think there is a mention of not being able to drive after use. I think the content in a spritz of it is too minute to actually have any effect tbh



Either way, today is Squishys big day. Dont be nervous, you can do it!!

OMG thats fuckin' great! well done Squishy

Was worth all the pre-tests by the sounds of it. I did think it would be a terrible pity if it was down to someones presence that caused you to fail.

Go forth and celebrate! just dont drive in the moring :pac:

Lol my Dad called me before the test and gave out to me. It was the best thing that ever happened. his 'just go out and drive to fcuk' worked! lol
tester was lovely and i just pretended my boyfriend was in the car instead of him for the first few mins till i was ok and then came home with a near clean sheet!!
Nearly kissed the tester when he told me id passed!!! lol

Thanks so much for all your help!!!
