Impossible question really - but shouldn't have to be any serious faults - just treat it like a normal ride and try and ride naturally. If you go into it rigid and over-thinking you'll probably make more mistakes than you prevent.
Just keep in mind at all times everything needs to be done properly, don't be in a huge rush to set off everytime the car in front moves or you'll forget a shoulder check or something and it'll start adding up if you do it a few times.
They're looking for safe progressive riding, not following their instructions and directions as fast as possible in a panic, which is easy to get into under the stress if you allow it to happen
I personally just told myself before hand the worst that can happen is you don't pass first time and have to rebook - in which case its probably for something its good they've picked you up on anyway for future safety, so either way its positive  |

Just look at it as a normal ride around with some guy in your head telling you where to go, that's pretty much it.
Pay attention to speed signs, i got a couple of faults for not noticing 20mph controlled zones, and if you miss a turn off dont do what i did and dive in at the last minute, still passed but to be fair i still managed to do a lifesaver indicate and throw the bike round  ____________________ aprilia 125 Af1 Futura >> Suzuki gsxr 600 srad >> J1 zx6r >> cbr 600rr >> Speed Triple |

Cheers guys!
Well, there was a moment when there was a No entry sign on a little road floater( those blocks normally at crossings) and I barely saw it and the instructor said next right please, the next right was the one after but my brain though it was, I realized it was a good way to test ones biking skills because it wasn't so easily noticed.
Also I swan necked the last turn.
I was so nervous, but now I am so happy, got someone viewing my bike during the week I think, looking to buy a Bandit 600/Sv650, so that I can use it for my DAS in years to come ).
Then I literally just have to take my bike there and pay £80 for the test  |
