^ hmm...just outside.....is that lichfield or sutton coldfield..?..i have friends living there~~~~! ooOOo aston uni is good wor....-smart huh......im guessing your commuting right..? whoaaa full marks in your theory huh...i cant remember whut i got nows...but i do remember i <3 doing the hazard perception thingy....that was fun...^^
Nope Oldbury, sutton is more on the eastern outskirts of bham, im on the western outskirts. yeah aston is good, only down side is they work you to the bone, most of my friends in other unis do a few exams each year, we do 10 - 12 exams but thats life. i catch the bus to uni, as you could imagine, driving into the city center = stress, you have to park far from uni and walk, pointless imo. i hate the hazzard perception, i bought a hazzard perception program from the shop and it was HARD but i kept practicing and on the day of the test i realised that my program was much harder and faster than the real thing!! so it was like slow motion easy mode, i didnt get a perfect mark but i did much better than i would have done if i was using the one i bought from the shop.
^ but amount of exams depends on the course your doing really...like i know a few people studying math and they have ubbbbber lots of little quizes/tests that count towards your grade as well -___-" i dun have that many exams but have more assignments and readings does it take long on bus...?...i guess ya dun need to worry about traffic and moving ya car and stuff.....the only thing i hated about catching the bus/train is how you have to fix your timetable/schedule around the bus and i duno it takes so muchy longer as well....and and i hateeee it so muchy when ya miss it by like 1 min but when ya early.....it comes late -___-" i guess the best way with the hazard perception thingy is to take it easy...and try not to worry to muchy about it....i only practiced a few times online and thas it and then did the test straight away....but who cares we got our licence nows....just dun forget to renew it in 10years when it expires....read in the newspaper how loads a people havent renewed it...
I fail once, because the dude hated asians. These dudes definitely have an advantage of us and screw us.
The bus takes about an hour to get into the city centre then i catch another bus to my uni, thats when there is no traffic, getting home when there is traffic is another matter, i just get on the bus and fall asleep. haha people not renewing their licence is funny, glad i got it out of the way cus its just geting more and more expensive, and my instructor said that soon they are gona make it so that you have to takes lessons for much longer depending on age.
^ its dangerous falling asleep on the bus or train ive missed my stops many many times and not to mention when i was in a hurry i jumped on the wrong bus.... read this about renewing thingy: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/driving/article5741199.ece thas just to put them off driving plus its so expensive already last i heard lessons were £23-24 an hour.....i guess its an attempt to make less people on the road..? coz putting up the road tax and stuff just wasnt enough
^ tell me about it, few weeks ago i was two stops away from my house and managed to fall asleep!!! had to walk home lolz, my grandma always used to tell me to stop going to sleep on the bus, i just cant help it yeah the theory has changed too with more questions and the its only gona get worse plus i reckon they are gona get stricter with the practical tests
^ haha i knows....its like 'dun ha dun ha'....and ya just seem to fall asleep esp. on long journeys or ya had a ubbbbber long day...thas why i drive places nows...plus catching the bus aint all that cheap anyways...and whenever i get a return tix on the bus i can never remember where i put it more stricter....jeesh it was tough as it is i think....ima cherish mine even mores...^^
Wow I was never told to practice on plates, only practice my instructor told me is drive with your dad's car. But instead I practice on Initial D instead LOLOLOLOL
Ye buses are getting to expensive now anyways, when im done with uni ill be driving everywhere Yaa you can take another test when your an OAP I used to play 'GTR' and midnight club on the pc but i used the steering wheel which messed me up in RL cus when i was doing my lessons i kept going for the paddle shifts behind the wheel (had have this), trust me, no paddle shifts on a vauxhall corsa >.< took me a few lessons to unlearn that habbit
