I had a horrendous experience today at this test center. The examiner was rude, unfriendly and disrespectful. I apparently failed for turning the corner too sharp coming into the bloody test centre. The examiner behaviour was unprofessional and didnt explain to me how i had failed.

Absolute shocking behaviour from one of the examiners this morning, very rude and unprofessional. Made me feel even more nervous than i already was. He more interested in complaining about not being able to have his toast in the test centre as the bread was stale!.

A friend of mine would like to make a formal complaint about the behavior of the examiner. Very sad to see quite a few negative comments on this review page

 by Gavin

One of the examiners here is an absolute beast of a man who made me feel more nervous than when I went sky diving. I can appreciate the fact that they do this day in and day out, But come on. He was giving off an extremely uncomfortable aura the entire time and it didn't ease off till i got home. Till next time drill sargent major.

Tomorrow is my second test..I'm hoping I don't have the same examiner, made me feel so anxious and nervous. And tbh I didn't like his attitude. I appreciate its their job, but they got to appreciate its a nerve racking time for people and try and make you feel a bit more at ease.
