Is it this bad for someone to not get the alley dock and parallel down after 10 hours of driving? I've already completed my hours at school and will have to pay more to get more classes before I take my license test. I wish I went to a school that had unlimited classes as mine only offered 20 hours for $1300. I thought their goal was to get everyone the class a licenses but I'm pretty bummed out.
I already drove on the street and that was very easy compared to the maneuvers. I am ok in reverse but parallel and alley dock is my worse. What would you guys recommend? My school only gave me 20 hours which was 10 hours for driving and 10 hours for the pre trip inspection review. All broken down into 2 hours a day.
About 10 hours in and I still haven't got the Alley Dock and Parallel down

Only way to learn it, is to do it ...practice practice practice

cross your fingers or pay for more training if you got the money when you pass the company you hire on with will help more
