Hey, I'm taking my road test on Monday and I'm kinda nervous. I only had around 10-15 hours driving experience. Any advice?

Well, if you have no driving experience, it's better to get a good car, right? After all, there's more safety features and you're less likely to die.
You're also more likely to have accidents which, in a new car, will need expensive new parts to replace. Your insurance will be /much/ higher as a new driver with a new expensive car than with a 'regular' car.
I STILL can't parallel park
Glad to hear I'm not the only one.
DMV lady first did an inspection of the car
Oh, yeah, I almost forgot about this one. The car has to be damn near perfect. At least here in Illinois the car has to be 100% legal otherwise they won't let you take the road test. For starters, it must have both left and right side mirrors. It must have both front and rear license plates (valid, of course). All tailights, headlights, etc must be working. Turn signals must work properly. etc., etc, etc...
It has to really suck to sit through 3 or more hours waiting at the DMV just to have the inspector fail you because you don't have a front plate. And you haven't even started the car yet!
