Signalling at roundabouts is a piece of cake
Basically you indicate in plenty of time for others to know which exit you're taking, but not too early otherwise it will look you're taking the earlier one.
As far as manoeuvres go, the only way to master them is practice, so ideally your instructor shouldn't have let you book the test if you haven't actually started doing them
Either that or you're going to have get a lot of practicing in before your test so you're confident with them.

Cheers for the resized sig Adam, much better! I dont mind it bein even smaller if it starts to annoy people with it being this size.
Yeh its unusual for your instructor to be booking your test without even doing a manouver. You should try to get out with your mum n dad as much as you possibly can, that helps alot!!!!

Re indicating round islands, my instructor taught me to start indicating for my exit once i had passed roughly the halfway point of the previous exit - this way it is pretty clear for people as to which one you are taking
So if I was told to go for the third exit, I'd get just past the start of the second exit and the indicate

I almost hit a granny on my test according to my examiner. He reckons i drove aggressively and made her rush across the road. Well couldn't have driven that aggressively or he wouldn't have passed me O yeah I also went straight on and he reckons he wanted me to go left. All he said was " get in the left hand lane" and this was left or straight on. So I went straight on and he then goes, "why didn't you turn left?" so I said becuase you never said turn left. But he still didn't fail me because I hadn't indicated left I didn't cause unnessary hazard. So Overall the test went as bad as it could have, so relived when I passedmysteryboy wrote:drive like a granny and you'll be fine
