Just do it normally. Cool, calm and confident.

Bro, i jux failed yesterday. now that i tink of it, im still quite sad. ZZ
nxt test in july most prob.

Jux remember the moment u get into ur car with the tester, dun panic do everything slow and steady.

Dun be like me, forget to put on seat belt when move off. (I noe this is like WTF, but seriously dun ask me why it jus happened.)

Then during circuit try to practice until sibei confident lo.
I strike kerb in S course (10 pts + 4 pts because when reverse nvr look behind), that is the main reason why i fail.

Jux remember dun panic, everyting slow and steady. Esp circuit, dun cock it up.

I drive properly, no strike kerb, no hit pole also fail.

You're lucky.

They spam demerit points on not check blind spot. This is more wtf.

Confidence is what they look out for

Also, as long as the tester feels safe, you're already almost there.

LOL i got 14 points just on not checking blindspot early last year. Managed to pass with 18 points

I would say just don't strike and hit anything. Practice till you're confident

The problem is I checked. I can even say how many bikes were behind me for the whole duration.

But LTA just want to fail me.

I've known many who have been told to "speed up or fail" by their testers

Too slow is no good, too fast is no good
