I found a 12 hour course split over 2 days and then you take the test. It's £350 but i'm considering doing it. I had lessons for nearly 1 and half years but my nerves get the better of me and then I forget things after having 1-2 lessons a week.Opinions please.Thanks Reply to this Question

 Hi,
I am in the same position as you regarding driving lessons/tests. I too have failed for the third time and been having lessons once/twice a week for over a year. However, I did make less mistakes than before on my last test.
I know how frustrating it is though, especially trying to control your nerves! Maybe you just need a better driving instructor? I don't think there's a quick fix for nerves when you're behind the wheel. Mine have calmed down over time. I also find that if I drive around for more than an hour at a time, I get tired and drive worse! So I don't think an intense course would help me. Also, it's a hell of a lot of money. I'd expect a guaranteed pass for that amount! And nobody can guarantee you a pass at the end of the day.

 spend the money on a cure for your nerves and then you'll pass.

Passed with only 2 minor mistakes my first time so can definitely recommend it.
