The difference between Pretest Lessons and Mock Test Lessons
A mock test is an exact demonstration of what will happen on the actual test itself. The theory questions beforehand, under the bonnet checks, secondary control demonstration and indeed the drive itself, all the points will be put before you.
We speak the commands exactly as you will be asked during the test and we will bring you on the same routes so you can get familiar with the manoeuvre points.
The silence and no talking is what makes people most nervous but you need to prepare for the situation so that you can get relaxed at that time and give your best.
If you want your driving test to be passed in the very first time, you have got to show the tester that your driving is in line with how they believe it should be and you are able to drive independently.
If you have been driving for years and you are planning to just take the mock test before the driving test then it might not work for you as you think because you need to learn about the specific areas which you have to practise to fine tune your skills and understand which wrong moves can count faults for you and the important observations to note while driving that you need to take care.
So, it is advised that you go through all the lessons and pretests to revise everything theoretically and practically and then appear for the mock test.
Timing of your lessons is the key
Our mock tests are designed 1 to 2 weeks prior to sitting the actual test so that we assess your skill level on time and advise you on what we evaluate. We will tell you what’s needed to be improved and then make you practise that harder.
Pupils who come to us for the first time, do a lot of things in the wrong way and don’t know how to drive as per test standards. It’s our job to ensure that you know exactly what it is the tester wants to see and all the skills are polished to the optimum level.
What Happens with your Instructor on the Pretest
You need to inform your instructor of your driving test date and/or to the sponsor who is going to train you on the pretest training also.
It is advisable to start your pretest after you complete the 12 EDT lessons with our driving instructor.
This gives more time to test yourself and an enhanced evaluation from our instructor which will solve your shortcomings in a limited time and to work on the areas which need more practice.

Test Day Necessary Details
Other things you should keep in your mind before the test are:
Do your diligent study
There is probably no better way to gain confidence for the test other than taking your time to study adequately. Even before you make arrangements to schedule your rest, you should have obtained the official revision for detailed study. The Official Driver Theory Test Revision Material is readily available in print and electronic formats.
Have your ID
You don’t want to get disqualified on the test day for not having the appropriate ID so make it ready prior only. The only ID that is accepted to write a Driver Theory Test is the Public Services Card (PSC). Thus, it is only wise that you get this sorted before you even book an appointment to do the test.
Schedule your appointment
You have revised the study materials and gotten your ID sorted, and you feel confident enough to take the test, the next step on your ladder is to give your test. During the application process, it is important that you make a clear indication of the category of vehicle you intend making use of.

Would 100% recommend him, he’s an amazing instructor, I wouldn’t of passed without all his help🙏🏼
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for all the guidance and support you provided throughout my driving lessons. As an Indian national living in Ireland, the process was a bit daunting for me at first, but your patience, professionalism, and dedication made all the difference.
Thanks to your excellent teaching, I was able to pass my driving test, and I couldn’t be more excited! Your clear instructions, calm demeanor, and personalized approach to my learning made the experience so much smoother.
I truly appreciate how you took the time to ensure I was not only prepared for the test but also confident on the road. Your encouragement and belief in my abilities helped me immensely, and I will carry the skills you taught me throughout my life.
Thank you once again for being such a fantastic instructor. I will always recommend Kevin Veeren to anyone I know who’s learning to drive.
But I take a moment to express how passionate and caring towards all his students Chris is. He teaches you not just to drive safely on the roads but prepares you for your big day and the compassion hits you in a different way. I highly recommend Chris to all the drivers out there looking to get a full license. There is someone out there looking after you all. Book sometime and see it for yourself as I feel no amount of words can express how good he is and the volcano of talent as a Teacher he possesses.
Thank you for giving me such a great level of coaching Chris.
Hands down, they are the best in business. Thanks a lot Darren and Chris!
professional, patient, and genuinely invested in my success.
The lessons were structured to maximize my learning in a limited time frame. My instructor tailored the sessions to focus on my specific weaknesses, which helped build my confidence quickly. The practical driving sessions were thorough, and I felt well-prepared for the test. They also provided valuable tips and resources for the theory part, which made a significant difference.
Thanks to National Driving School, I not only passed my driving test but also gained a solid understanding of safe driving practices. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to learn quickly and effectively. Their dedication to helping students succeed is truly commendable!
did two pretests with Keith and Chris. Their enthusiastic attitudes gave me a huge confidence boost going into my driving test. They explained things in a such a clear and patient way and gave me lots of advice that helped me pass my test first time. Big thank you to National Driving School!
