How to Pass Your DMV Permit Test on the First Try
1. Study Your State's Driver's Manual
Every state publishes an official driver's handbook covering traffic laws, road signs, and safe driving practices. This manual is the source material for all questions on the written knowledge test. TigerTest's 200 practice questions per state are based directly on this material.
2. Use Training Mode to Learn the Material
Start with TigerTest's training mode, which gives you instant feedback after each question. When you get a question wrong, it goes into a review queue so you see it again until you master it. Most users complete all 4 training sets in 2-3 study sessions.
3. Take Practice Tests to Build Confidence
Once you've completed the training sets, take the 4 practice tests to simulate the real exam. Each test has 50 questions with the same format and time pressure you'll face at the DMV. Aim for 80% or higher on every practice test before scheduling your real exam.
4. Know What to Expect on Test Day
Most states administer the written knowledge test on a computer at a DMV office. The number of questions varies by state — from 20 questions in New York and Alaska to 50 questions in California, Florida, and Michigan. Passing scores range from 70% to 85% depending on your state. Bring valid identification and any required documents.
