Make the most of your practice
We recommend that you supplement your lessons with plenty of practice. If you do have the opportunity to practice your driving between lessons, ask your instructor for advice about which manoeuvres to practice to make sure you get the most out of these sessions. And remember if you're practising with friends or family, it's your responsibility to make sure you're covered on their car insurance policy.
Take a mock Practical Test
One of the most effective ways of preparing for the Practical Test is to have a trial run. With a BSM mock test you can take a test with exactly the same format as the real thing. And to add to the feeling of exam conditions, we'll even ask another BSM instructor to be your mock examiner. Find out more about BSM mock test.
