Intensive Driving Courses
Select this option for our intensive courses including our unique Pass N One Week Courses.
Training courses are planned out intensively over 1-4 weeks leading up to a pre-booked test date.
You'll book the intensive course first, then book your driving test. Once a test date has been secured, and you've communicated the test date to Pass N Go, all your training sessions will be planned, this happens around 6-8 weeks prior to your test date.
If you haven't passed your theory test yet, once you buy the course, you can purchase a theory test separately from us and we'll book that for you first, then, after that has been passed, we'll plan your course. Intensive courses have a higher pass rate due to the nature of compacting your training into a shorter timeframe allowing you to retain more information between training sessions.
