All the advice is to leave a good gap between mod 1 and 2 incase this happens... so no sympathy there!

Good luck next time though!

Ahh yes, I remember you from the other thread
Unlucky, it's risky booking Mod 1 and 2 together.

I badly messed up on the U turn first time. Later on that day I went out to practice and was doing perfect U turns every time, which kind of made me feel worse That's what nerves/pressure does I suppose. I booked separately because I didn't want any extra pressure.

So, are you rebooking separately this time, or going for the man points again

wasnt on the cbr it was a gs 500 bloody heavy thing lol
and nope no man points to gain now mod 1 next month no mod2 booking until i pass lol

Ok

You could still book Mod 2 now, but schedule it for a few days after your Mod 1, then if you fail Mod 1 again you can put the Mod 2 back or cancel it free of charge (provided you give 3 clear working days notice).. if you pass Mod 1 then you've got your Mod 2 in a few days time

It depends on having a slightly flexible instructor though, I guess not every instructor would be happy with that

Good luck for next time

[TQ]

I failed my first mod 1 on the U turn:

Shoulder check, pull off, slow down, perform U turn, pull up.

I missed the shoulder check just before performing the maneuver (IE there should have been two checks and I only did one).

I was so annoyed with myself, fortunately didn't have mod 2 booked for the same day though.

Passed it with flying colours the next time and passed mod 2 first time as well.
