Here is hoping tomorrow is more win than today -_-
The driving test will vary according to the type of license applied for. You
will be graded on four basic skills, CONTROL–your ability to make your car
do what you want it to do, OBSERVATION–your ability to see what other traffic
is doing and other things that may create problems in traffic, POSITIONING–
your ability to drive in your lane and SIGNALING–your ability to use turn
signals as required. You may be graded on your performance of some of the
following things, so these would be good to practice before taking the exam.
• parallel parking
• quick stop—You may be asked to stop your car as quickly as possible
from about 20 miles per hour without skidding your tires.
• backing—Back your car for a distance of about fifty feet at a slow rate
of speed and as straight and smoothly as possible. Turn your head and
look back at all times while backing.
• stop signs or traffic signals
• use of clutch—On standard transmissions, hold the clutch all the way
down when starting the motor, shifting gears, and when speed drops
below 10 miles per hour when stopping. Do not ride with your foot resting
on the clutch.
• intersection observance—Use proper lane. Slow down and look both
ways before entering intersection.
• turns
• right-of-way
• passing
• proper lane observance
• following
• posture—Keep both hands on steering wheel and do not rest your elbow on the window.
It's an early morning, and thus an early night - just need to pop over to kroger to buy some g's and get some $$$. Whee!

Their parallel parking set up completely threw me off.

I will tell you something I remember from a friend who did their test on a standard.
As soon as you are done with the clutch, put your foot off it. They hate when you have it on the clutch for a long time. Which is so stupid and not at all how you would normally drive, but whatever
