One-week intensive driving course in Aberdeen

A one-week intensive in Aberdeen compresses 20–30 hours of tuition into five consecutive days, with the practical test usually sitting at Aberdeen (Cove) on the Friday afternoon or the following Monday. The format works because it removes the forgetting-curve between lessons — a Tuesday lesson is still fresh when you drive AWPR (Aberdeen bypass) on Wednesday.

What we focus on for one-week intensive in Aberdeen

Mon–Tue: car control, junction discipline, Mannofield residential observation

Thu: full mock test on a Aberdeen (Cove) route, debrief, second mock
Fri: pre-test warm-up then test

The week-long format suits pupils with 15+ hours of prior tuition. Beginners in Aberdeen are better served by the 35–40 hour two-week structure — there's just too much to learn from scratch in five days.

Pickup is included anywhere in AB10, AB11, AB12, AB15. Days run roughly 4–5 hours with breaks, so you're not exhausted by the Friday test.

Who this is for: Pupils with prior experience, recent test failures, and licence resits across Aberdeen and the Aberdeen City area.
