A Thousand and One Theory Test Questions

This 'It's a Drivers World' book has primarily been prepared with trainee A.D.I.s in mind who are preparing for their A.D.I. part one multiple choice element of the Theory Test. However, it will be of great value to those trainees who want to refine their driving theory for the part two practical driving test and their instructional skills for their part three 'Test of Instructional Ability'. Fully qualified instructors will find it an essential revision tool when preparing for and undergoing their 'Check Test' and a useful means of keeping in touch when giving tuition to learner drivers. Its' main function is to provide a structured working platform to assist trainee A.D.I.s in studying for the Driving Standards Agency part one Theory Test (multiple choice element). It does this by means of a series of comprehensive quizzes, complete with answers, based upon the required reading necessary to ensure a sound basic knowledge which will lead to a first time pass. There are in fact nine hundred formally set multiple choice questions rather than the one thousand and one implied by the title. The other one hundred and one are questions which may be in the mind of an aspiring instructor which hopefully are answered elsewhere in this and other books by this author. The nine hundred questions comprise seven blocks of one hundred each complete with correct answers together with two mock tests of a further one hundred each complete with correct answers and assessments. To get maximum benefit from this book the trainee is advised to work through the series of questions progressively by seeking the answers in the various reference books recommended for study by the D.S.A. By this means the trainee will effectively cover all the required reading to ensure eventual success in the theory test. As an added incentive a section has been included which sets out briefly the benefits of being a driving instructor. It may be useful to help those who are unsure about the profession to decide whether or not it is worth pursuing. This book costs a fraction of a single ADI training session, but it will be money well spent. You will learn quicker. You will need fewer training sessions. It will save you money.
About the Author: JIM DUGGAN spent a quarter of his working life in the driver training business as a driving instructor and latterly involved in the training of instructors. With a pass rate of 78% at a time when the general pass rate was only 32% he has a proven track record. Having now retired from the practical side of the business he wants to pass on all that experience to anyone who may benefit from it. The A.D.I. Theory Test requires a very high mark if a candidate is to be successful, indeed the minimum requirement is 85%. Even that will only be successful if minimum marks in each of four categories are gained. Such high marks are required to ensure driving instructors are well equipped to meet the D.S.A.s aim of improving the general standard of driving. He realised trainee A.D.I.s needed something more than just unending verbal guidance on what was required to get them through the A.D.I. 'Theory Test'. Equally they needed some kind of motivation to work their way through the required reading in their own time. His solution to the problem was to prepare focused question sheets which the trainee could take away for the purpose of seeking out the answers in the required reading before the next lesson. They would then be marked up during the following training session with each question being discussed to clarify the thinking and reasoning behind it. The usefulness and benefits of the question sheets became immediately obvious. Trainees became competitive within their group and worked studiously at home to ensure they obtained high marks and were not embarrassed among their peers. The resultant pass rate was almost 100% which was a very satisfactory outcome. However, Jim eventually came to the conclusion that providing a candidate was sufficiently self motivated there was in fact no need for paid formal sessions of training. Providing the question sheets were made generally available together with the recommended books there was no reason why a studious self motivated candidate could not get through the 'Theory Test' without the help of formal tuition and the high costs involved therein. He produced a series of E-books on driver training, of which 'A Thousand & One Theory Test Questions for Trainee A.D.I.s' is just one. They can all be found on www.itsadriversworld.com However, he was aware that some people still prefer to work from the printed word and so here it is.
