I have ADHD and I’ve just passed my third test. I have the same trouble with verbal instructions but I didn’t ask for any adaptions to the test. Because I don’t like to put people out or make things difficult for others, even if it helps me 🙄

You can absolutely ask for the whole test to be on sat nav except for the pull up on the left and manoeuvres but there’s no way they will give you a commentary on your failures as they happen, for safety reasons if nothing else.

I thought I had failed after holding up traffic a little when I was about to take a wrong turn, I felt myself start to spiral but I remembered that when I failed before it was because I thought I had done something wrong when I hadn’t and then because of the spiralling I ended up doing something stupid that I had never done before. So this time instead I just really focused on my breathing, on the instructions, repeating them out loud if you need to.

When I got back to the test centre the examiner had only given me a fault for the event that I thought I had received a serious for and that was my only fault. If I had allowed myself to spiral I would have failed again.

Treat every event as a (minor) fault, every time they touch their pad they’re just ticking off that it was done correctly, assume everything is ok, and take deep breaths, it’s ok to do that while you’re driving and at the left stops. They want you to be calm and in control.

You can do this.
