Cool mate 
I did mine not long before they changed it to the 50 q's, but then had to do the car one afterwards.
You doing a direct access course after the CBT or going for an A1 license?

Going to do the direct access. The practical test was going to be changed back in October but it has been held back until the end of March 09. Just enough time for me to turn 21 and (hopefully) pass!

That's cool, do a good few days training with the company and you should be alright 
Imo the bike test is a bit harder than a car because there's more to remember, and the instructor follows you and plays tricks on you.
On my second one, we went onto a dual carriageway, and he was way behind, so I (in a moment of noobishness) slowed down a bit for him to catch up, but he never did, then he marked me down for not getting up to speed fast enough 
So there's a Corsa Sport Top Tip: Forget the instructor is there as he's out to get you

Bike test definetly harder I thought. More relaxing in a car as you are sitting talking to the instructor.
Both tests are ridiculous, you can't ride like they teach you, in the real world.
