CBT Sunday, a week riding around on a 10 year old Cg125 (much better than the newer Suzukis they had) and test on Friday.
Because the test was at rush hour, the examiner took me for a 30 minute blast around the back lanes. Quick u-turn and an emergency stop and it was back to the centre for theory. 3 questions later I passed!
A lot easier than now, that's for sure...
A local IAM member who is also a blood runner did a mock test on a IAM skills day and couldn't believe what you have to do now to pass, he wasn't totally convinced he would.
I was one of the first to take the 2 module tests, passed module 1 first time, took 3 goes for the on road part. :o
I am convinced though it was a better test then, but they have since watered it down again because of MCN complaining.
My instructor said if students couldn't pass they weren't being thought properly.
