• If I take an online driving test do I still need to study the state's drivers manual?

  Categories:

  • Drivers License > Practice Tests > Drivers License Practice Tests

  It is never a bad idea to look over the state’s drivers manual as well as take online practice tests. While some people do learn the material through taking a practice DMV test, there is always the possibility that some small fact in the manual will be on the real drivers license test and not on the practice test. In other words, you want to be prepared. Go ahead and give the manual a once-over, then take the practice tests. Take as many practice tests as you can to prepare for the real test. An online driving test is super-convenient and a great way to both test what you’ve read and will help you retain all the new information by repetition. If you are consistently getting high scores and there are many areas being tested, then you’re probably ready to take the real drivers test. If you are getting low scores, then you probably need to really look at the driver’s manual as well as do more practice tests.

• Do practice permit tests cover all sections of the state drivers manual?

  Categories:

  • Drivers License > Practice Tests > Learners Permit Practice Tests

  It depends. If the tests are short, they cannot cover all sections of the manual. This can be a problem because the written learners permit test to get your drivers permit can test you on anything within that state drivers manual, so you better be sure you know every bit of information in it. It’s sort of like taking a midterm where the teacher can test you on anything that happened during the entire semester. To boost your chances of passing the drivers license test, you should take practice tests until your fingers are ready to fall off. Some state DMVs have free online tutorials and tests, but these aren’t always very long. For example, California has three different sample tests, each with only ten questions; there’s no way this permit test can cover all the material in the drivers manual.
