Module 3 - 50 MCQ within 60 mins
(Passing rate 41/50)
Module 4 - 30 MCQ within 60 mins
(Passing rate 24/30)
Took my exams for Module-3... 4
times already & still always fail. always not enough time. my
best score was 38/50. the most f-up thing is, they never
ask the same questions, the most is maybe 5-6 questions
is the same from the previous exams.
1st time i took the exams, never
ask about taxi stand no. at so & so street. i failed because it
was not familiar on the strategy to answer the MCQ's & i took
too long to answer. 2nd time, ask around 2 questions about
taxi stand no ... 3rd time time i took the exams, ask about 8
questions about taxi stand nos. 4th time i took the exams, ask not
ONLY taxi stand no, ask PUDO & taxi stop nos. WTF is LTA
trying to do??!! if they don't ask any taxi stand, PUDO &
stop questions, i can finish the exam in time & most
probably pass the goddamn exam. but the 4th exam is the worst.
really cannot tahan, sibey jia-lat. time to answer 50 questions
with taxi stand questions within 60 mins is really
insufficient.
to be realistic, which customer
will ever ask a taxi driver: "can u fetch me to taxi stand no.
A12?" (hey, LTA exam setter!! - r u stupid or retarded or
what??!!)
taking the exams is really based
on luck. if u r lucky, u pass... if not, u fail. i'm getting really
pissed off about this. for instance, even if u memorize 20-25
of the questions (embassies, schools, town councils, NPP, etc),
they frikkin' don't appear at all. it will be totally different
from the previous exam. same goes for taxi stand nos.
Module 4 - if u don't regularly
drive on the road... U WILL DEFINITELY FAIL.
so, for those who don't drive
regularly & u passed your module 4... can u please give me any
advice? i consistantly score only 17-18/30. i'm getting
more & more dejected.
thank you in advance.
Have just passed mine today, so thought can share with you the
experience.
Basically for the ENTIRE test, it is not based on luck. It is
based on SPEED.
Simply put, for module 3, you only have 1 min 12 sec for EVERY
single question. For module 4, 2 mins each question. So you have to
challenge yourself to answer the qeustion within this time frame.
How? By simply racing yourself aginst the clock, you have to think
and make decision fast, if you can't answer it, mark it for review
and go on to the next qn. Answer as many of the 50 qns you can, as
my instructor said, the very difficult one, just let it go... This
would help you increase your chance of passing greatly. My fellow
classmates today couldn't finish the all questions, some left 5
unanswered.
Another way to find what you want fast is to use coloured rulers
in the index pages, how? Treat me kopi, I'll show you how. Remember
that on the first page is the contents page for the index, forget
which page Private Housing is on, flip to the first page and find!
It will save you precious seconds for every question!
I have some worksheets you can practise on for module 3 and 4,
but best not to put up public here, however I can meet you and pass
to you.
For module 4, did you watch the DVDs given? Watching the DVD and
plot it against the 40 routes papers given, you will see a lot of
landmarks. Some people will say the DVDs are useless, but watch it
and plot against the paper route given, you will find it easier to
remember the routes.
Familiarize your Orchard area, City area maps, places like
Shenton Way area, Suntec area, Chinatown area. This are areas with
many roads and they like to kill you there, cos you will spend a
lot of time trying to look for a bloody building or taxi stand.
For the 30 routes, which route to go if you are given 3
different routes? Take the route with the most ERP gantries. Dun
believe me, try the route from airport to four seasons hotel. You
will see what I mean, there are other alternative that DO NOT NEED
to pass through ERP.
Hope this helps....
