Unlearn habits? What you meant to say was use your great skill and hand eye coordination to pass the test. The test I might add that is pretty easy to pass, as I did, with over seven thousand hours. If you can't scan or coordinate your eyes, hands and feet then you might struggle. Then you're not wanted.

Hmmm, so the very experienced pilot can't do basic mathematics?
