Nowadays the standard of passing is set to very high. Only few can pass at one go.

Goodluck

You are so helpful !

I wonder how you guys can remember the 40 routes..

It is a challenging moment for me..

Stevewish · New Member

I 've gone through the difficult cycle in memorizing. For every route, I referred to video clip and street directory to trace. Quite time consuming but help to memorize.

In order to test your route, write down the route from the starting point to the destination for all 40 routes.

I never memorized the landmarks eg. buildings, taxi stands etc but two test questions actually came out to ask about a particular landmark is at your right or left on a particular street. Challenging. I think I got it wrong but still manage to pass the test.

Good luck

If you drive often and are familiar with Singapore Roads, the 40 routes should not be a problem. For me, as I memorise, I visualize mentally the actual drive along the roads. And yes, got to memorise and write down the start pt to destination. Be careful of tricky questions like Jurong Canal Dr vs Jurong Canal Road. Which is correct?

For landmarks, if unsure, use the street directory provided.

Thanks Mr. Lim. .

Can I ask for module 4:

Correct answer is-

Choa Chu Kang Central (Housing Estate) > Choa Chu Kang Ave 1 > Choa Chu Kang Way > Bukit Batok Road > Jurong Town Hall Road > Science Centre Road

Will they trick with -

Choa Chu Kang Central (Housing Estate) > Choa Chu Kang Way > Choa Chu Kang Ave 1 > Bukit Batok Road > Jurong Town Hall Road > Science Centre Road

Just by swapping the road..

Or for Expressway exit, swap by the exit number.

If that will be the case, this paper will be very tough

my exp is, yes they will sweep.. it happpen to my Tamp Ave 10 route to Polytechnic .. they sweep the viaduct sequence from TPY to Bartley.. anything that u are not certain.. u can still flip map and check on the sequence. think shd be abt 1.5mins per question.

they can also trick u with ten miles junction and seven miles junction

Hey Iglab,

Yes. Will swap the sequence of roads...for E'way exit number, unlikely..e.g. PIE Exit 16A, Kim Keat Link. Unlikely they will put Exit 15A Kim Keat Link..If it does happen, just check the street directory..

can i say the ans will be identical however the swap of road make us required to spend time to check street directory
