I graduated from truck driving school in February , I have since taken my test 6 times and have passed everything except for the site side paralel and obviously the road test . I now have to wait until feb. 2017 to test again. Has this happens to anyone else ? I'm upset because I am the only person from my class to have not gotten my liscense and I know I was nowhere near the worst person in my class , and was even told by my instructors I should've passed on the second or third time. I am from Massachusets , any advice or similar problems ?
Failed class A test 6 times

Yikes. I am sorry to hear that.
Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
I failed my test once due to me jumping out of the truck instead of going down step by step. Why are you failing the road test ?
Adieu Thanks this. -
i failed my final time today because the trooper said I was to close to the line when I finished my manuever , I didn't hit a cone or anything like that my tractor and trailer were perfectly straight but apparently I was a half inch off . He even said " ohh, close " before failing me . You cannot go on the road without passing all maneuvers , still haven't made it that far .

So if you do pass, what part of the country do you plan on running in?

The only way to nail those maneuvers is practice. And remember, practice doesn't make perfect. PERFECT practice makes perfect. Make sure you can nail them 10 out of 10 times on the practice range before you retake the test. Like Hype suggested, make marks on the trailer if you need to. Personally, I used the landing gear braces for reference when parallel parking. I knew exactly how much of the brace needed to be showing in my mirror to signal me when to turn the wheel the other way.
