Ridiculously high-yield!
This resource is so ridiculously high-yield that I was able to pass (23/24; 95.8%) after just two days of studying with it. Worth every single penny and more; disregard it at your peril.

This was a huge help.
31-year-old from NYC learning how to drive — I passed my driving test today! This was a huge help in getting me prepared for the driving test! I feel ready to tackle the road test - wish me the best with parallel parking!

The practice questions covered all of the questions on my exam.
I was able to effortlessly pass my written test, confidently, because of all the practice I did online! I enjoyed using the site as it was simple and easy to navigate and with the course path I always knew what test to take next. Thanks to the challenge bank I was able to focus on the questions that ended up giving me trouble and study those ones more carefully. Cannot recommend it enough to anyone looking to get an edge in on the permit test.
