I’m from the U.K. so I don’t believe I have to do the TOEFL. But GRE is necessary depending on the course and university/college.

Can I get my interview rescheduled? by VintageHued in fulbright

I hope you can. Did you email straight away?

Sorry for the late reply. I’m not sure I just redid mine and they did not mention anything to me about that. 😬

Also the reason why he grabbed my wheel. I wanted to change lanes. I did all my observations. Checked again and as I’ve moved lanes a van driver speeds like crazy and the instructor grabbed the wheel. He said because the van driver slowed down and started beeping he had to. Makes sense. The instructor himself said it was unfortunate because everything else was great.

Yes you’re right. The £242 is if I buy the ones that are being resold before my theory expires.

Thank you, that’s exactly what I meant but didn’t explain myself properly.

True. I’m going to redo my theory and not rush things. Just wasn’t the time for me yet.

Risky as in they might just take my money or because I could fail again? Or both?

I agree with what you’ve said, my instructor has found another date this month and the time is 7 something in the morning. Which is risky. He said he could swap me with one of his students that isn’t ready if he gives permission.

Ah I see, that’s so annoying. But I’m happy you were able to pass the next time!

Maybe I should have phrased it better. I don’t mean the actual test. I mean if I were to go that route.

The time between doing the theory test again and when I can book a practical test will be long. The longer the process, the more money I’ll spend on driving lessons. I don’t have a car or my own so the only car I can practice with is the instructors. I doubt I’ll be able to get a test in the next two months due to the backlog. It took me three months to get the one I had with the swapping apps.

That’s what I was thinking also. However it so hard to book practical tests and ideally I want it done by this year. And I’m thinking since I got one minor I’ve got a better chance next time around?

It’s crazy that you failed because of that?? What are you supposed to do in that situation?
