DMV Road Test vs. Private Instructor

Hi so if I'm 18 years old, and have already held a permit for 1 year and completed a Drivers Ed course in School (without the BTW), it seems like my options is to either get the DMV road skills test or from a private instructor.

I was wondering which one you guys think would be easier, I've heard some people say the DMV one is more strict, any advise!??
