    I done mine in tallaght.

    Did you request a cancellation?

    I think the fail rate is something like 56%, you can check on the RSA website.

    I have done my in Tallaght about a year ago. I waited some 5-6 weeks for date of the exam.

    As far as I can remember there were 3 most popular exam routes. My instructor made sure I was familiar with them and kept me practising a lot on each of them. And it paid off, as on the exam I was directed to follow one of the routes almost exactly as practised during my lessons. Only turnabout was in a "new" spot. I passed first time :)
    Good luck!

    I don't remember all of them, just my exam route which went as follows:

    Turn left out of the test centre, follow Broomhill Road, turn right into Airton Road, then right into Belgard Road and right again into Mayberry Road, then left into Parkhill Road and right into Redwood Drive. Reversing around the corner Redwood Drive/Redwood Way. Back on Redwood Drive, turn right into Redwood Ave, turn right into Redwood View to do the turnabout. Turn right back into Redwood Ave, left into Redwood Park, right into Redwood Rise and right into Treepark Rd. Hillstart on Treepark Rd. just beside Dunnes. Turn right into Mayberry Rd, left into Belgard Rd. Go straight up to the traffic lights at the crossing with Old Blessington Rd and turn right. Turn right into East Belgard Square then left on the roundabout into North Belgard Square. Go straight through next roundabout and right at traffic lights into Cookstown Way. Turn right into Second Ave then left into Cookstown Road. Turn right at the roundabout then left on the next one. Turn right at the crossing with tram line and right again into Belgard Road. Left into Airton Rd and back to the centre.
