Can anyone advise on the process to getting a driving licence? I have enrolled in BBDC yesterday and will be doing manual.

Q1 :Is it advisable to book the basic theory evaluation and the basic theory test straight after enrolment so as to hasten the process? There are very little information online.

BTL 1.01
BTL 1.02
BTE
BTT
Apply for PDL and go for both FTL,FTE and FTT while learning driving simultaneously
Q2: Is my order correct?

Q3: can I book both BTL lessons on the same day?
Q4: is there a fixed number of practical lesson?

1) you will need to pass theory evaluation before you can book for the actual test. start with some basic theory practice first (if you think you need some practice) then go for the evaluation. when you clear your evaluation, you can book for the tp theory test. subsequently, same for final theory test.

2)depending on your time schedule, you can start practical lessons along with taking up final theory lessons. pdl valids for 6 month and require renewal thereafter. but you will need to clear final theory test before you can take the practical test.

average duration you have to wait till the test session booked is 1.5 months to 2 months

3) yes you can

4) depends on how fast you learn. average practical lesson is 25. if you can clear fast, can be less than that.

Book all your tests asap. That time my BTT waiting period at BBDC was about 2 months. I heard its a lot longer now. Evaluation not so bad, most of the time got slots one if you book about a week in advance so its still fine.

Means I must wait until I passed my theory evaluation before I can actually book for the actual test?

Yes. Evaluation can be taken anytime after going for lessons. So right after you passed your evaluation you can book for the test.

That's the scheme of BBDC.

If you look at the brochure they provided you will find a roadmap for reference.

Can book btt even before evaluation la. Just make sure your evaluation pass before the btt date, else it will be canceled.

and also, when you book your practical test date, you will have to ensure that all components (auto/ds/btt/ftt/stage5.1) will be completed 2 weeks prior to the test date

Continuous white line means die die cannot cross over iirc.

All this theory part not important during tp at all. To be frank, I feel that their theory lessons are just to suck money. For btt and ftt, just go for practice sure can pass de.

Continuous white line means no parking on either side of the road, only double white line then cannot cross over..

continuous white line can pass, only double white line cannot.
single parallel zigzag and double yellow line should be the same. both cannot stop other than immediate pickup.

This is what I did few years ago,
1.Take complete BTE > book BTT immediately(2months later)
2.complete BTT > next day take FTE > book FTT immediately(2months later)
3.Make PDL>chiong finish till half of stage 3(circuit) within 2months while waiting FTT
4.complete FTT > book TP immediately(2months later)
5.Book all remaining lessons before 1month before TP(so that you will still be used to driving before taking TP).

so roughly took 5 and a half month for me including all those theory tests.

My suggestion would be to go for 1 or 2 practice session before the actual BTT and FTT. For me, eg: BTT on friday. I did one BTP on wednesday to be familiar with the qns and those i get wrong i can revise on my booklet they give on wednesday night and thursday. On friday itself before my BTT i will go for one more BTP. Both BTT and FTT i scored 49/50, the questions are all repetitive so no worries just memory work and simple understanding! Waiting time is a killer tho 2 months for each test :eek:. I just passed my FTT today hahaha. All the best! :D
