The above seems like good advice. If you can do the manouvers in training you can do them in the test....end of. Your obviously putting too much pressure on yourself during the test. I really think whilst you are doing your test you need to imagine you're training. Imagine how confident you feel whilst practising and then transfer this attitude to the test.
I didn't have the off road part when I did my test, but I know I treated the test just like my training. I just imagined I was doing just what I'd been doing happily the two days before. I know it sounds stupid, but I'm sure the examiners want to pass people, being bikers themselves so forget they are there if it helps and just unclutter your mind and do what you know you can do in training
. You've probably been trying to do all that anyway though! Good luck with the test!
