if you are of average intelligence and you listen to the instructor you should pass it no problem and you should also enjoy the course , if you know nothing about tanker work it really doesn’t matter as most of the training you need will be done in house for each product that you carry,that is were you need a good trainer because if he doesn’t instill good practice into you from day one then you could be doomed in the future, dont be a defeatist, if your going to start doubting yourself now before you start stay at home and save your money

hmm, i’d say i’m above average :slight_smile:, and i’m determined to do it and change my job, i hate my job at the moment and desperate to move out of kent up north to northamptonshire

I did it about 2-3yrs ago, unfortunately the material is no good to you, I chucked it all away in the recycle after failing to gain meaningful employment as a driver.

Thanks mate. Small doubts due to not being English. English is not my first language but I’m sure I’ll be fine

Relax mate, if your spoken English is as good as your written English I can honestly say without fear of contradiction you are head and shoulders better than a lot of posters who frequent this (or any) forum.

It’s in your instructors best interest for you to pass,they also get assessed on results any relevant topic will be hilighted several times to you just listen it’s not hard,honestly

Hi i did mine a cple of weeks ago we where aloud to use the book that we where given.

It’s all reasonably simple, from a class of 10 who all thought they’d fail in March, everybody passed all of it.

Ok thanks a lot guys. I’ll be all right then I think

You’ll be right, end of #bepositive [emoji16]

You cannot use any books in the exams! If they did let you then they will soon lose their accreditation and you will lose your adr entitlement. .

In the exam - surely not :open_mouth:

Only joking.

Is there only one answer right? Or could be more

your panicking again , breath , in with love out with anger ,you read the question and you read it properly , it might ask you what is, it might ask you what isn’t it might ask you to pick one it might ask you to pick more than one as in what three components are required for a fire, i can see you sat at the back needing first aid ,relax relax relax
