    Hi , I have my test tomorrow and Im a bag of nerves. Coupled with the fact I dfound out I was pregnant yesterday! my head is in major nervous meltdown. Im trying to get my confidence but finding it so hard.
    I keep messing up the simpliest things and I cannot get my under the bonnet check done properly. My driving instructor only showed me the check once in the 12 lessons. I have got info off the internet but can anyone tell me can you fail even before u leave test centre if you get this check half wrong and if you mess up your theory test questions. I was confident previously but after this weekend my nerves are shot

    Jaysus! Well just keep focussed on one thing at a time. You can still cancel if you're not up to it.

    This site came in handy for me when I was doing checks and the questions you're asked beforehand.

    Rescue remedy is also good to have! Best of luck (and congrats!).

    I have my test tomorrow aswell :) all iv been told really is that theyl ask you roughly 10 questions if you get 3 or more wrong you get one blue mark..and with the under the bonnet questions it depends on the instructor..its actually relitively simple if you look it up online now..but if you do get it wrong horribly you may get another blue mark...but i thin your aloud 8 so its stiill very possible to pass ... GOOD LUCK :D

    Pray for lashing rain - any of the (many) tests I did that were in the rain skipped the under the bonnet tests.

    There are only a few questions they can ask you anyway. If you put your mind to it you'll have them learned in no time.

    Heroic sorry to hear that. I made mistakes too I honestly think my examiner just gave me the benefit of the doubt and passed me. Apply again straight away I bet you will pass with flying colours. Happy christmas.x
