Have you told the test center? When I did my theory test I was given a vioce over of the questions I could hear through headphones this helped me.

Show the examiner a solution for Afacia where you click icons that speak a word or a text.

Hi

Are you talking about a driving theory test? When I had mine only just about a year and a half ago, I was sat in front of a TV Screen and give multiple choice questions. Then there was a short video interactive video where I was essential driving and clicking to point out hazaards on the road.

If it is Driving theory heres how I got through with all questions correct having lost just one point.

There was both visual and audio if you wanted in multiple choice, I chose visual. The headphones cancelled out any other noise in the room and I was in a cubicle so no distractions.

Previously I learnt the highway code 2 ways, one by cycling alot, noticing signs, what was happening on the road, so I needed to add sense and meaning to the signs.

The second thing which really helped was I found a website where you do mock exams and theres a app you get for you phone to practice multiple choice, it was just like a game.

When I wrote notes I wrote them in 3 different colours and tried to learn the information in sections.

The hard part was the Video and my top tip is click in plenty of time, even if you think you are clicking a little too early, almost as soon as that hazaard appears you can click as the video is a few seconds slow to respond.

You need to put this information in your long term memory so you can use it after you pass, that means applying meaning. Maybe even make up a silly story around a road sign if theres some you have difficulty remembering.

Oh and of course get someone to test you. You probably have the books but if not theres always the library or charity shops, I took mine test books to a charity shop.

Good Luck and I hope I havent misread this post and its about another type of exam.

Believe you will pass and you will, see yourself passing, getting all the questions right.
