    Exam Failing
AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the frustrations and experiences of individuals taking their driving tests. A participant expresses shame after failing their exam due to missing a "no parking" sign while attempting to park, which was a critical mistake that ended their test. Others share similar experiences of failure, often due to nerves or minor mistakes, such as forgetting to wear a seatbelt or struggling with the emergency brake. Many emphasize the importance of remaining calm and focused during the test, suggesting that nerves can lead to oversights. The conversation also touches on the perceived unfairness of driving tests and the challenges of obtaining a license, particularly in different countries. Participants offer support and encouragement, sharing anecdotes about their own failures and eventual successes, reinforcing the idea that many people face difficulties when learning to drive. The overall tone is one of camaraderie, with humor interspersed as they navigate the shared experience of driving tests.

And that's only the theoretical part they are talking about. He still has to get in the car. Hopefully he's better at actual driving. If it takes too long the validity of the theory-certificate will expire and he has to do it all over again. :smile:

If the ladies at PF would like to moon about him, I'm sure he'll appreciate that.

Actually having brushy eyebrows isn't a defet.You know most of women prefer men with brushy eyebrows.But you know I don't like too brushy eyebrows because my eyebrows are brushy .(Of course not as much as yours :rolleyes: )

Thanks heaven! o:) Well I should wait at least for a year(just like yourself :biggrin: ) and after that maybe I'll post a photo!I hope you'd forget all about what I said at that time! :wink:

Are you shy?
No, I'm not confident enough! :rolleyes:

That's a relief to hear. I haven't put a picture of myself up yet, but believe me; I look like Bert from Sesame Street (wrt eyebrows).
I thought they always looked cool on me, 'till I heard unibrows were some of the 7 signs of ugliness or something.

I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!


I HAVE FAILED IT AGAIN!


I am too furious. I am about jabbing everybody here.

Me cago en la ostia puta!, Joder!

After 20 minutes driving so correctly he said me parking here. I did the parking but I had to re-maneuver in order to fit it into the place, but I spent too much time (the limit is in 2 minutes). He said me the time was over.

Okay, sorry about the last one, I'll delete it.

I'm sorry you failed your exam. Perhaps it isn't worth trying again until you've moved to the US and get a different instructor.

do you know the problem? We, our stupid country filled with a$$holes and subnormals has no formal treatment for validating the US driving license here. So I have another opportunity on 7th Sept, which I don't know it is worth of taking. But If I fail it, I will spend a lot of money in this stupid mission of having the driv. license without sucess!. Moreover, here the driving license is very expensive. I have spend near 1000 Euros with only two failures and few practicing classes!. We are living in a prehistoric country, where everybody (specially the Administration) takes advantage of everything and your money, except you. I am ashamed of me for failuring this stupid exam and passing all others I have had to pass in my undergraduate studies, and I am also ashamed in living in this damn country.

But, consider the following:
If you are to go to the US to complete/further your education, then your financial position will most probably have improved when or if you return to Spain (i.e, you're likely to have well-paid job, rather than being "just" a student).

Thus, in that case, it wouldn't cost you as much to get your Spanish license in the future as if you try to take it now again.

You may fail it because
1.you don't want to cheat on your Sword!
2. You want to meet that beautiful secratary more.


Don't worry. I'm not going to say more nonesenses because I know you're angry.

I will tell you what will happen when I'll come back to Spain:

i) in USA I will be earning 18000$$ or so per year,

ii) each year I will be able to save 6000$$ or so.

iii) at the final of my Ph.D. (let's say 4 years) I will be saved 24000$$ as a maximum.

iv) when I come back I will find that an small flat in Madrid costs about 275000$$, which makes I will have to go to live with my parents again for some time.

v) The job I will obtain after coming from USA won't be as well paid as you may think. I will be lucky if a Ph.D. Aerospace Eng. is valuated in an enterprise of a country in which researching and technology is viewed in the same way you look at your coffee machine.

Unfortunately she has a boyfriend. Although I haven't proposed nothing explicit to her, I am resignated and desmotivated right now. She has been the unique good thing I have obtained from all this damn stuff.

Anyway frget all about that. At least there's a positive thing about failing your test. :wink:

Do not hijack my thread about my disgrace and tell me what the Hell could I do. I will propose you some nice alternatives:

i) Killing examiner with an axe,

ii) killing examiner's wife with an envelope filled with Antrax

iii) killing examiner's children by means of a bombing.

iv) killing examiner and all his family gathering them in a closed room and insuflating CO, while I am doing photographs of their faces and laughing at how they dead.

v) Bombing the Centre of Examination

vi) Taking the 7th Sept exam again, knowing I will spend more money and will have only this opportunity before going to USA.

vii) Cutting the examiner's head and hanging it in my dinner room.

viii) Forgetting about driving license and proposing a date to the driving school secretary, which deserves I do that effort again (because she has rejected one time already)

ix) Forgetting about driving license and secretary and only thinking of going to USA, where I could obtain another driving license knowing that it is not exchangeable for another one in Spain.

x) Forgetting about driving. Bicycle is the solution.

xi) Forgetting about writting in this absurd thread again.

What do you think is the best choice??

xii) Get that secretary laid, don't bother about going back to that dumb instructor, enjoy the secretary once more, dump her and look forward to studying in the US.

To be sincere this option is the least probable. That's because she is on holidays from now on to 22th August, and I am not going to see her. What about ffffvcking the examiner's life to make it a Hell?

Just stop thinking about these kind of things. Do something you like. And when you feel relax, decide about what you'd better to do! o:)

Oh no please! Then you want to kill her or her bf!

Is it possible?

x) Forgetting about driving. Bicycle is the solution.
A mechanical engineer who can't drive a car, could be ... I don't know!

It seems like I am completely addicted to driving test I am going to take in August, I post just to tell you that.

Contrary to popular beliefs, a examiner's head is not a wise choice of decor.

Choose ix, first it will only cost you 15 to 25 dollars{US} and you will get more on the road experience while your here. By the time you will go home, you will be a expert driver.

Clausius, you could still try the Sep 7 exam, and if you pass OK, if not, then don't worry about it. Like hypatia says, you will have the opportunity in the US.

Actually a bicycle is a good idea - good exercise. The area around UCSD does have hills though, so that could be somewhat challenging at first.

On the othe hand, the buses have bicycle racks to carry bicycles, so one could take a bus and then use a bicycle at the preferred destination.

BTW, do you have an apartment/flat yet?

The main problem I would loose the half of cost of my enrollment if I fail. Each enrollment gives you the chance of taking 2 exams, and each enrollment costs about 250 euros (200$$). If I fail, I would loose the second trial, and also I would loose the theoretical pass.

Hills, Hills? :smile: Man, I climb MOUNTAINS with my bicycle. Do you know Armstrong has retired? Do you know why?. In fact he feels pain about me. :biggrin:

There are a couple of spanish students friends of mine who are looking for hosting, probably in Mesa. But they haven't found anything yet. Do you have some suggestion better than sleeping in the street?

Have you looked on campus? I will ask some friends, and I will look around - I will be in SD next week.

It's best to live near or on campus though - however it is a bit more expensive.

xiii) Forget all about driving, secretary...And justtry to learn how to win American women's hearts(or women in general) in order to find a very rich gf in US. Then you don't need to worry about finding an apartment and expences of getting a driving license!
