They should tell people to pass the language test (if needed) first before the topical test, I bet they don’t!

Yeah it's crazy, if you can pass the Topographical then you can read and write English.

 

Now: you pay then centre that your attending for your Test the fee (depending on centre £50-£75)
But the test is conducted by TFL staff not the centre staff. The test is conducted under strict rules like taken a O level test lol only not as hard.

How many O levels did you get?

 

i just passed my, first attempt 71%

 

If you can provide evidence of your English language with your application, and if they accept it, you don't need to take the topographical test. They never asked me to sit in one and 3 of my other friends who provided evidence of English language with the application

 

I took my GCSE English in 2013 got a C, do I still need to take the topography test?

My Tips on how to Pass your Topographical Test

Not much information out there apart from everyone trying to take your money.
Don't think "How hard is it to read a map" lol
It's not but you have to know the protocol of how TFL want you to write on the test.

Don't pay hundreds of pounds as there is no need.
Unless you can't Read or Write English then you will need further training.

Need that in another language

 

I have a uni degree and have worked for years in a profession that requires complex report writing and analysis. Have been driving 20 plus years and have lived in London for about 25. I thought I would walk it. Instead I failed miserably, 38%.

For anyone taking the test; don’t be a smartarse like me and assume you will walk it. Take it damn seriously and learn the skills. ( Second time round, passed by the skin of teeth).

 

don't be a smartarse

Exactly mate, I was nearly that smart arse lol
How hard is it to read a map lol
Glad I took the time to prepare. At my test was a guy that did his first test by just turning up as he thought "how hard can it be" he got 41%.

Preparation is key so you know how they want it written. I got 84% and to be honest I should of done better. Done and dusted, now give me my licence please lol

 

but did you or your three mates get a license thou?

Offcourse i got it.

Have they made it that hard? The one I passed was a piece of piss .

 

Topographical tests: TfL mentioned that statistics remain relatively static and further analysis is being done on reapplication rates. TfL is in an advanced stage of developing a computer-based test and offered reps the chance to come in and see it. A digital booking system is also in development that will help streamline the process for applicants.
