Going to fail my Driving Theory Test?

So on Monday I have my driving theory test. The thing is, I'm going to fail it! I practise every day for about 4 hours, give or take.

On the gov.co.uk website, I passed with 47/50 (need 43 to pass) so I was happy, but when I take the mock theory test on the DVD I bought, I keep getting like 35/50. Why is this?!

How do I revise properly in order for me to learn enough to pass before Monday?

Please help! :

PS: I took a Hazard Perception Test, and passed it every time. I took it three more times today and failed each time. Why am I so stupid?! =(

Update:

Thank you to you both. I will try some of the things suggested by Magick Angel. Thanks a lot. I will choose a best answer when I get home from the test on Monday and of course, I'll tell you how I got on.

    you may be over loading yourself

    I would go with the gov.co.uk one unless the dvd you have is really really recent.

    do the mock test once today but no revision.

    an hour and 15 mins of revision in the morning and an hour and 15 mins in the evening on saturday and sunday - have a 5 min break every 15 mins during study time

    you reach a limit after 20 mins and it is hard to retain information after that, having a short break every 15 mins keeps your brain fresh and absorbing knowledge

    get someone else to test you - ask them to read you questions. for everyone you get right, you can eat a chocolate - keep going until you feel sick - do this instead of a mock test. (obviously, make sure they dont give you hints etc)

    dont revise on the day of the test, just remain calm

    in the test, take a deep breath before you start and read the question really carefully, they are sometimes a bit sneaky.

    if you are not sure, try to eliminate some answers, if you are still not sure you can flag it and go back to it at the end - keep an eye on the timer tho!

    Good luck, you will be fine and you will pass.

    if you dont pass, you can rebook after 3 days, just go over the things you didnt know (it will tell you) and book in again.

    but im sure you will pass it.

    Sounds like you have put a lot of hard work in so have confidence in yourself. With regard to the hazard perception, just remember that a hazard, in this context, is something that could cause you to take corrective action so keep an eye on pedestrians, cyclists, cars arriving at side junctions, children playing, pedestrian crossings. Should the worst happen and you fail, please check out my book 'The Demon Road: A Theory Test Novel' or my website listed below but it sounds like you won't be needing them.

    Read your Highway Code and stop over-practicing, the questions are not only easy, but OBVIOUS as they are multiple guess, the wrong answers are so ridiculous it's untrue!

  • 8 years ago

    Have you read the highway code?

    Have you read 'know your traffic signs'?

    Have you read 'driving the essential skills'?

    If the answer to the above is no then you are going to fail.

    This article is about the theological or philosophical afterlife. For other uses, see Hell (disambiguation).

    Hell - detail from a fresco in the medieval church St. Nicolas in Raduil, Bulgaria

    In many mythological, folklore and religious traditions, hell is a place of eternal suffering and punishment in an afterlife, often after resurrection. Religions with a linear divine history often depict hells as endless. Religions with a cyclic history often depict a hell as an intermediary period between incarnations. Typically these traditions locate hell under the Earth's external surface and often include entrances to Hell from the land of the living. Other afterlife destinations include Heaven, Purgatory, Paradise, and Limbo.

    Other traditions, which do not conceive of the afterlife as a place of punishment or reward, merely describe hell as an abode of the dead, a neutral place located under the surface of Earth (for example, see sheol and Hades). Modern understandings of hells often depict them abstractly, as a state of loss rather than as fiery torture literally underground, but this view of the concept of a hell can, in fact, be traced back into the ancient and medieval periods as well.[citation needed] Hell is sometimes portrayed as populated with demons who torment those dwelling there. Many are ruled by a death god such as Nergal, Hades, Hel, Enma or the Devil.
