Pressure

You must not put your self under too much pressure.

Ways to reduce this -

Have a few lessons each week in the run up to any intensive course.

Book enough lessons or length of course to make you feel confident of passing first time.

Try to include a bit of breathing space where you could fit in a few extra lessons if necessary.

Don't do more than 4 hours per day.

Do cancel other appointments where possible during the weeks of your course. Get focused.

You've survived up to now without a licence. Failing is at worst inconvenient and expensive. It's rarely a matter of life and death.

Nervous people can still pass the test - they've been doing this for many years.

Get yourself as healthy as possible.

Don't rely on passing for new jobs or urgent trips

Your friends and relatives may have taken less lessons than is now required to reach the high standards of todays driving test, don't try and compete with them
