Why not get buy a map and compile your own lists? It's a good way to learn. The best map is probably the one called the Dundee Street Plan, which has a picture of the city churches on the front. I'm not sure what you have to learn these days, but the index of this map has plenty of information such as public buildings, parks and schools. You can use the Yellow Pages to compile a list of pubs and hotels etc. When I sat the test a few years ago the other maps were generally riddled with mistakes and/or weren't up to date. The only problem with the Dundee Street Plan is that the level of detail is such that if you are trying to learn the streets it may look a bit overwhelming, but you could perhaps use it in conjunction with another less detailed map which will give a clearer overview of the main arteries etc. Have fun! |

By the way, the map mentioned is the one pictured in the link below. If you haven't got one, they're probably on sale in Waterstone's in the bottom half of Commercial Street or Ottakars on the corner of City Square. http://www.rpasmith.co.uk/dundee.htm |

why dont you ask the council for some copies of the old tests? if they are anything like our council they have a set number of streets, venues and route that they pick and choose from. for example our council use 200 streets, 100 venues and 100 routes. the test could be 20 streets , 20 venues and 10 routes but the ones asked are always picked from the same 200, 100 and 100 each year. that is how our taxi school do it and is probably how 203020 do it too. |

Get a big map you lazy so and so,then study it,plus look around at pub names etc. Also do you think that 203020 have a magic system for passing the test,NO,they study and do things properly. Also remember the highway code comes in to this. Have a nice day,but remember,better going with 203020 because they are more professional. Ask Scot,he was with them methinks. Master Young |
