All test centres in Monks Cross
Every centre in Monks Cross marks the same sheet, so the choice between them counts for less than whether move off, safety is solid. There are 15 categories on that sheet.
Take move off, safety. Forgetting the right-shoulder blind-spot check; bouncing back to seated position after the mirror check without looking. Most of the argument about what is a minor and what is a serious comes down to cases like that one, so it is worth knowing which side of the line yours falls on before an examiner decides it for you.
Six-point check on every move-off: left mirror, centre mirror, right mirror, right shoulder, left shoulder, signal. Practise until the sequence is reflexive. Free to use, no sign up. Everything for the day itself is on the practical test hub.
About these statistics
Pass rates shown above use the latest DVSA reporting period for each centre. Rates are volume-weighted across the city: larger centres carry proportionally more weight than smaller ones. Centres with fewer than 1,000 tests in the current period are flagged as low-sample to avoid statistically noisy comparisons.
Always factor in your own preparation, instructor recommendations, and route familiarity. Pass rates are a useful signal, not a guarantee.
