don't forget to use your turn signals and go into the appropriate lane after a turn...

make sure you speed and slam the brakes on also

Above all else, stay calm, don't get all worked up. I know one of the guys who does the testing and he can tell in the first two minutes of meeting someone whether they'll pass or not just by how they act.

Dude be relaxed and try to not worry about it. I was worried about mine and did just fine. Just remember hand over hand turning, watch the speed limits. If they say take the next available right/ left or whatever, make sure it is not a one way that you come up on first, because that is a trick they will do. Good luck man.

i just took mine in july ul be fine. i lucked out though. here in MD they're starting a new test where they actually take you out on the road. i got the old one where you just go on the little track out back. parallel parking, stop signs, 3 point turn, blah blah. not a problem. make sure you practice parallel parking i saw somebody fail cus they cudnt do that.

Just go really fast to get it over with quick. Then when you're on your way back to the DMV text your parents and say you think you passed!

Just use both hands at all times, turn signals, practice parallel parking if you have trouble with it, and don't act like you're takin your test and get all worked up.

Pound a few beers before the test to calm your nerves.
