While police department allows for short course (while having an experience)while some of driving schools try to make things difficult through pre-test, just for their profit or they have not such qualified instructor who can train with propose time.(because all time instructor also force student to go for full course).

cont.

We would like to emphasize that we are not pushing any students to extend their training without their consent. It is the sole discretion of the student to decide whether he/she will extend the course. Pre-test is done for the benefit of student, we don’t gain from it as it is free but we still do this for our concern with the student. Pre-test helps the trainee to be more experienced in driving instead of just running for the test. We could have just taken their money and ask to go for the test without evaluating their driving but we don’t, as we value them. This pre-test policy of our School was raised to the Traffic Department and they appreciate what we are doing. We are the only driving school who are evaluating the students, we know this is not compulsory but as we value our trainees, we are providing such services. We even recruited Supervisors to conduct this pre-test as we want our services to be of high standard reason why the trainees who are passing from the first test increased.

There are cases wherein the Companies are pushing their drivers to have the test even they are not competent and qualified. Most of the native license holder doesn’t have enough experiences and driving skills but here in Al Khebra Driving School, we exist to mold professional qualified drivers for the safety of everyone.

@ Optimistic friend

In behalf of Al Khebra Management, I would like to clarify some issues you have mentioned. It’s not about making it difficult for the trainee that we conducted a pre-test or to make profit out of it as it is free or that our instructors are not competent. As a driving institute, it is our thrust to create safe and courteous drivers by providing quality education.

Normally, pre-test is not implemented for short and half courses since students are country license holders. However, as per the advice of the Instructor or request of the student, a pre-test may be conducted to know their status and how well do they go with the training. A report from the Supervisor will be made and a copy will be hand-over to the instructor in charge of the trainee and the Management that will serve as Instructor’s reference for further training as well as Instructor’s Report for his evaluation. All the weak points of the trainee will be stressed out from the report and the trainee will know his mistakes to concentrate on the areas that need to be improved. There are cases also that the Management was calling the attention of the trainee to ask them about their feedback so we will know where the problem arises if it is from the trainee himself or from his instructor.

You are lucky Razingbull......if these are quality measures why they are hiding at the time of admission if someone insist to pay exam fee at the same time they said you will pay three days before exams.....why they are showing such double standards,if they are quality conscious then must inform to students "if you pass pre-test then institute allows you to go for test if you agree then take admission" other wise they are over ruling the permission given by government/traffic department which allows for direct test or short course.

Good point razingbull.....but the question comes in mind about the credibility and quality of rest of the institute!!!!and in that case the leverage given by traffic department is just waste because they allow such students to go directly to the TEST..........not enforced pre-test.

So we are at the same point that they are good for long course or full course but not having qualified instructor who can teach in certain time and therefore they enforce through pre-test to go for full course.

In case any student wish to go for test then they refuse even they didn't allow to submit the exam fee of that student while other institute doesn't have such they follow the proper rule by traffic department,while they are having their own sub-rule.

Point is if traffic department allows for short course or direct test why they take pre-test and enforce for full course.

It is good only for those who are not sure either they can drive properly or not!!!not for all.........

any way Congratulations you got your licence after having full course.

Notice rodqie76, he mention that they forcibly or tactfully impose long/full course through so called pre test,and they refuse students to go for the test with traffic department, and after giving admission fee no one think to go any other institute.

Why don't they allow direct test with traffic dept,Let them decide who can drive or not.don't pressurize for long course!!

Make each and every thing clear at the time of admission.

Anyone can help or suggest how to stop out from such situation????

I also have driving licence(from home country) and go for short course but after having pre-test (which is not mandatory)they forced for full course and according to other student it is their practice especially for short course student and important is they never tells students about such so called pre-test at the time of admission after having few classes they inform you about pre-test which is unfair........ while with karawa after completed the classes you can go directly for test with police department(which is quite normal).

Actually as for my case, since I have my valid license in my home, I am entitled for a half course or direct test. Full course may be required if you don't have existing license or expired. Otherwise, no driving school will require a full course. There are a lot of driving schools out there, Al rayya driving school, karwa, etc.

Good point......New in town,me and my friend are facing same problem......why they complicate things .I heard karwa is very clear about it and tell clearly everything at the time of admission.
