Default Help me decide what to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK at the ripe old age of errmmmmm almost 40 I am going to get my learners permit

This is what I need help with, the rules change on the 1st July in that if you dont have your learners permit by then....you have to wait for 12 months before sitting your test....it is currently 6 months.............I have had a read through the road rules but not studied them in great detail......should I...........................


1- Wait for a bit and study them then go for the test

OR

2- What the hell its only $16 to sit it, why not give it an go and see if I pass
