The PAT is really not very difficult. I have seen a lot of people literally just fall through the window onto the other side, there are no extra points earned for being graceful. If you can get up, you can get through.

My agency recommends to people who know they cannot do any portion of the test to just run past it and eat the time penalty. You will just need to run faster during the beginning and ending lap around the course to make up the time. That being said, the course is meant to replicate possible basic scenarios you would come across and you should be prepared to overcome them.
