No, the wall of the exams still separates me from my driver’s license. For those who are unfamiliar with the grading system: first, you have to complete the lecture course and have an exam on theory (40 questions, you can get 2 wrong without losing points). In this battle, I became victorious on the first try (I didn’t doubt myself, though, because I prepared). Second, you compete the practice part, actually driving around. Then another theory test - computer based this time, Traffic Police format (20 questions, another 5 for each wrong answer, 2 mistakes possible). I did that on the first try as well. Perhaps I am now some kind of a theory guru! Next, a «fun» game. An internal exam on a special site and in the city, then external exams… I don’t know why there is so much. There are organizations where some steps of that are omitted.
To this day, I have tried the site practice exam only once and it didn’t pan out. I didn’t feel ready, I had a month break from driving at all (exam week, bad sickness that lasted for weeks and other hardships weren’t helping). Now it’s most important not to give up!
