TODAY is much awaited day for a small challenge that I prepare for about 2 months. It started me with the coincident of wanting a new job. Nowadays bosses prefer to employ multi-tasker and I tried to make myself better marketable person by doing so. It is beginning of a journey to online registration for basic theory test. It cost me S$12.65 and affordable. I feel boring 6 months after my specialist diploma exam is finished. So I put myself under pressure by registering this driving licence exam. I don't know when will I be given a car to drive in the island state. But I do believe getting ready on whatever areas we can improve is time worthy practice.
I read 2 types of basic theory books and 1 Q&A book which has 300 questions and answers and seemingly cover all the basic theory that all drivers are supposing to fully understand. From page no.1 to the end, I don't remember how many time I read it repeat. One of my friend said it's a snap and another told me that it took him 3 times to pass. So I prepare my best to get a result I want. I left my room at 9:00am as exam will start on 10:30am. There are row of seats just infront of exam room. We need to wait until one official announce to enter classroom. He checked our IC card and gave a piece of paper that show our name, IC no, password to open computer and station no. On the reverse page, there are some rules to be read and follow.
Just before start, the official explained some useful information with regard to exam and he open projector in which a lady explain by demonstration at computer screen. It's easy for young generation who are used to computer. But old people who are not IT savvy are exceptionally allowed to sit exam by writting. There are four language to be selected as usual, English, Chinese, Malay and Tamil. Being foreigner, I use English version and found it user family and comfort to answer like that. This is first time for me to sit an exam by computer but I found it's quite effective.
The participants are given 50 questions and all must be answered within 50 minutes time. So we have 1 min allowable time for ever single question. In fact we don't need to take 1 min to answer the question because it's just a touch away. I noticed that some people finished after 10 min. For me, it took me 24 min to complete first round. The computer announce that I have no more question to answer and ask me if I want to submit answer paper or not. As a result of hard studying, I could able to answer all questions smoothly except 2 Qs. So I reverse back and check one more round as there are 26 minute left. I confused on 2 questions and tried my luck for these question as we can make 5 mistakes to pass. I excitedly submit and the result come out immediately. Imagine how I would be nervous. It show the way I expected and appear as follow:-
PASS (score 49/50).
