Also is it possible to take your Medical with one company but not go any further with this company, and maybe go wlswhare.
As FM said - get medical done and apply for provisionals C and D - all that you can do on your own - no need for a school
Pay much over £50 for a medical then consider yourself ripped off !!
That medical and provisional will be valid for any trainer
MOST trainees can pass the test doing a 5 session course - that can be 5 half days of 1 to 1 or 5 full days of 2 to 1
NEVER do full days of 1 to 1 because the average human brain cannot take it
If a trainer says 1 to 1 is best then ask them how many seats they have in their training trucks - bet its only 2 so they cannot offer 2 to 1
YOU can get your own theory and HPT material to practice on and then book your own theory tests if you want to without going through a training school
If you intend to drive LGVs commercially and passed your car test after 1997 then you will also need to do initial Driver CPC theory module 2 and then book initial dcpc practical module 4 with a trainer
