South Korean Lady Passes Driver's EXAM On Her 950th Try ..................

it was a fluke.

Is that really true? Oh well, if the article said so it must be. I actually won't do the same thing if I were in her shoes. My limit for it would be only just three takes because I can't take myself doing the same thing over and over again. I would just simply accept the truth that I'm not for it. And gee, it's just a waste of time. That's just my opinion brother.

How amazing, this Is a true example of never give up. But however 950 is far too much. But her confidence and determination and passion has paid off

I passed the written test on the first try and the driving part on the second - and it didn't help that the first time was in a blinding rain storm...

I first went for my licence back when I was 19 and didn't pass it. I didn't try again till I was in my 40's and I failed it again. Then the last time I tried was when I was 50 and I pass the test and past the driving test. I now have my license for two years but I don't like driving at all, unfortunately. I believe if I had gotten my license when I was younger I would love to drive but I'm just to nervous of a driver and can't handle it.

I never had trouble with the written exams, but the driving test itself I took about three times before I passed it. That was in part because the automobile I was driving was defective and would do things like spray out power steering fluid, or refuse to go in reverse. I hate the skills part of any test.

Wow! I would never give up either, but fortunately I have always passed my test on the first try. Maybe the written test is harder in Korea. This year I expected to have to take the written which includes a vision exam, too, but they surprised me and extended my license another 4 years. I think that someone who has driven for 20 or 30 years without ever getting into an accident or getting a ticket should get automatic extensions. Apparently my government agrees with me, lol.

When I was a 17-year old girl living out in the country, I failed my first driving test though. When I went home crying my neighbor told me the mean man in my town failed EVERY woman who ever took the test because he hated women and did not think we should be allowed to drive. She told me the same thing happened to her and to go to the neighboring town. I did and passed right away. I wish I had asked her first, but my dad took me to that mean guy and then I had to wait another 30 days. Grrrr. When you are 17 and have to walk to work (or beg somebody for a ride) 30 days is a long time to wait.

If she has tried that many times and failed, I would hope that she would channel her determination into something else that has a smaller chance of killing other people!

She is obviously determined and has sticktoitivity. She would be a driving force if she would volunteer to help people or take in foster children--anything but drive a car!! This woman is a person who has the determination it takes to succeed but she should direct her efforts to something she is actually good at. Maybe she has talents that she hasn't realized yet but I think she should take a taxi and devote herself to something that makes the most of her skills.

For what it's worth, I know my own driving days are limited. Driving means independence and in her case it means driving for her business but maybe she would shine at keeping the books while someone else drives!

Hi zed_k4

950 attempts to reach her success. What a peeler of failure she climb to catch her success. It is like the mountaineering like of the highest peak mount Everest.

Is this really for real? 950 times taking the test? This is something impossible, i guess. lol

i know for some tests, that you can only take the same test, if you fail, only after 6 months or a year. And these could only be taken only for 5 times, the maximum. So if 950 times she took the same test, did she took it on what frequency? Sorry about this, that i can't go to the link as i am having a mobile phone right now and i can't go on that.

anyway, i am not that disappointed when i fail an exam. I just take sometime to review what could be my mistakes. So i can get more prepared next time.

when i applied for my driver's license, fortunately, i got it on my first take.
