Hey guys, heads up(got my G1 & waiting for Extract from India)
Firstly Thank you
@subodhp for the guidance & starting this topic.
I recently visited Mississauga Test center though I live in Etobicoke(thanks to many of you who have posted about not accepting extract in Etobicoke) So straight away I went to Mississauga. I got in at 2.30p & test was taken at 3.10p, came out by 3.30p waited for my printed copy of G1 completion.
There was no one who could help/advise how to go about it, I saw a kiosk to get the coupon/ticket number & to be seated; while I was staring at the screen in front as the number will be called upon.
The person asked if I've any experience and produce the document if so, produced my Indian Driving License (20 years exp)& asked me if I can produce Extract letter I said yes & showed him the Reference slip of Extract, but advised me to get the original & he went ahead and booked my G1 & told me that - you will be directly giving G(Driving Test) once I get through with G1 (but just ONE attempt only- if you're failed, you'd be giving G2 & wait for 2years to get the G license). You can produce the extract anytime you want but G1 has a 2months period, which in I need to produce extract ASAP to get to G directly.
Highly recommend to newbies take Practice Tests on
1. 'G1 Genius'(mobile app)

2. '
https://www.apnatoronto.com/' (both of them will help you gain lot of knowledge in clearing the tests)
First set of 20 Questions are 'Rules' (no pictures shown most twisting words) most crucial test takes a lot of concentration, if failed retake with a new ticket number + $16.
Second set of 20 Q's are 'Signs' (with pictures) which everyone will pass in one go
For both of these, you need to score 16/20
Total amount $159.64 for G1 test, License fee & Road Test (G2 not included because I can produce Extract in a couple of days' time) Credit/Debit/Cash Accepted.
Hope this helps others
Cheers
