Is the simulated test site the same as the actual examination site?
2 Answers
Simulated test sites are similar to actual examination sites, but not exactly the same. Examination sites are generally more spacious and larger, as multiple tests are conducted simultaneously in different areas. Training site: Due to cost and planning approval reasons, driving school training sites are usually smaller with higher land utilization rates. Examination sites, however, focus more on the testing environment, so there is a longer distance between each test item, and the requirements are very standardized. Differences: The driving school's site for Subject 2 is essentially a simulation of the actual examination site. There is not much difference between the simulated test and the real test. As long as you pass the test five times in the driving school's simulated site according to the examination requirements, you can generally pass the actual test.
As a student, I've taken several mock exams and real exams, and while they're designed to be similar, the actual atmosphere is completely different. Mock exams are usually set up at school or at home, with teachers doing their best to simulate the real environment, such as arranging seating and time limits, but they always lack that tense nervousness. Real exam venues are more solemn, with stricter invigilators and more rigidly enforced rules, like having to raise your hand for permission to use the restroom. Mock exams are primarily practice tools to help you familiarize yourself with the process and reduce fear, but when you're in the actual exam room, everyone's seriousness makes you realize this isn't a drill. I recommend participating in more mock exams to warm up, but also visiting the real exam site beforehand to help your brain adjust to different pressures in advance.
