There's that higher bar I'm referring to. You are now in a very high risk category of potential drivers.
Ive seen a few suggestions like Petes to start over and that might be for the best. I know a guy who was at our school in Richfield Wi had similiar issues and just decided to start it over although he already had his cdl. The pressure on him during class was almost non existent in his words without that looming test 3 weeks away and he did very well. He was setup with a trainer day 1 of class and was able to have several face to face convos with him in the three weeks of class. Not sure of your previous situation if there ia a school note but its something to think about.
