How realistic is the mock?

Very — we mark the actual DL25 sheet, the route is real, the manoeuvre is one of the three test options. Only the examiner is missing.

How many mocks should I do?

Two minimum — one to expose weak spots, one to confirm they're fixed. Three if there's significant work to do.

Can I book a mock without lessons?

Only if you're a recent failure or refresher — we need to know you're at test standard before running one.

Mock driving test in Edinburgh

A mock test in Edinburgh is the closest thing to the real practical without the DVSA examiner. We run a 40-minute route around the Edinburgh (Musselburgh) catchment, mark a real DL25 sheet, debrief at the end. It's the best single predictor of whether you'll pass.

If you pass our mock comfortably, your real-test pass rate is over 80%. If you fail our mock, postponing the test costs nothing — failing the real test wastes the £62 fee and a 10-day cooling period.

Currie tests typically include a section of the A70 and a Lanark Road residential loop. Musselburgh tests use the A199, sometimes the Old Craighall slip onto the A1, and tight back streets near the racecourse.

Who this is for: Anyone in Edinburgh 1–4 weeks out from their Edinburgh (Musselburgh) test slot.
