THE
ADI exam is comprised of three separate tests.
These must be taken in sequential order and are
usually referred to as the ADI Part 1, Part 2 and
Part 3. All three tests must be passed within two
years of passing the Part 1 test. ADI
Part 1 - the ADI Theory Test
This
test comprises 100 multiple-choice questions
which cover ten subject groups in four bands. The
pass mark is 85%. You must also achieve a minimum
of 20 out of 25 in each band. Time allowed for
completion of this test is 90 minutes. The test
is IT (information technology, computer) based,
using a 'touch screen' system.
An
audio option is available so that you can listen
to, as well as see, the questions and answers.
Tests are conducted at approximately 158 centres
around the UK. You will be notified of the result
as soon as you have finished the test. There is
no limit on the number of attempts at this test.

Part 2 - the ADI Eyesight Test and Test of
Driving Technique
You
must be able to read a number plate at a distance
of 27.5m / 90ft. This compares with the standard
'L' test requirement of 20.5m / 67ft. During an
hour's drive you must not commit more than six
driving (less serious) faults or commit one
serious or one dangerous fault. A consistently
high standard is required.
Tests
are conducted at approximately forty centres
around the UK. The timing of tests is determined
by waiting lists and workload in any particular
area. You will be advised of the result at the
end of the test. Only three attempts are allowed
at this test.

Part 3 - the ADI Test of Instructional Ability
For
this test - lasting one hour - a Supervising
Examiner will role-play a 'pupil' at two
different levels of ability. The candidate will
instruct the 'pupil' in subjects chosen by the
Supervising Examiner. The 'instructor's'
performance is assessed under three main headings:
Core Competencies, Instructional Techniques and
Instructor Characteristics.
Tests
are conducted at approximately forty centres
around the UK. The timing of tests will be
determined by waiting lists and workload in any
particular area. You will be advised of the
result at the end of the test. Only three
attempts are allowed at this test.
