Don't forget to signal 3-4 seconds before turning.

Don't worry about it. Get a good amount of sleep the day before and just stay calm. Practice driving around the area where the test is going to take place. If your lucky they will have you drive right where you practiced.

Just do it exactly how they taught you and then once you pass you can drive how you want to (ie, one handed like 99% of America!). I did that and got a 98 out of 100. Just don't worry about it and do what you have learned.

Don't get drunk and try to take the test. Trust me, you'll fail that way.

Dont get drunk or high. Check your blind spot before you merge lanes.

Listen to him, I failed my first time for going 2 mph over the speed limit. Even then people were backing up behind me because everybody drives faster than that.

drive as close as possible to the car in front of you for safety reasons. They don't tell you about this, you are just expected to know it.

Leave a car's length between you and the car in front of you for every 10 Mph that you're going. For example, if you're going 50mph, you're technically supposed to leave 5 car lengths between you and the car in front of you.  Not that anyone actually does that, but my instructor did ask me about that.

If you have any friends that have taken their test at the same place recently, ask them to take you through the course when they're not open. That's what I did, and it helped me a lot.
