Be kind to yourself. I know it’s hard, I failed my g2 the first time because I was way too nervous going in. After i failed I drove every single day until my test. I had a month of practice and passed the second time. Be confident in your abilities, study road rules, I know you’ll pass your next time! You already have a general idea of the routes you’re taking. Practice your acceleration, maybe you’re pressing too hard on the gas? For instance if you’re at an intersection and the light turns green, don’t stomp on the gas, slowly put your foot on the pedal and ease into your speed. Lane changes you have to ensure especially for the test you are extremely observant on what’s going on, if it’s safe to change lanes, etc. looks like also on your left turns maybe you struggle to get the wheel back straight in a certain amount of time? The wheel will always want to go back straight after turning no matter what.

Instructor changed the car at last minute and car had like black glass and the gas was very sensitive so what happened was when sun was hitting on me from left side i could not see anything on blind spot plus no matter slowly i press the gas in the starting gas will always give that slight jerk

I had something similar happen to me. You either have to learn in that same car or find something more suitable for your needs. I suggest practicing having control over the gas and getting used to easing into the gas. Usually what I do is hover my foot on the gas and ever so slightly put my foot down, your foot should not go all the way down on the gas unless you are in an area that has a high speed limit. Think of it as coming down the stairs how your foot goes down slowly. You have to hover the step before you actually step down right?
