Minnesota CDL Class A Practice Test 2025

  • Perfect for first-time and renewal CDL/CLP applicants, and those adding endorsements.

To get a CDL in Minnesota, you must meet several requirements and complete the licensing process. You must be at least 18 to qualify for a Commercial Learner’s Permit if you plan to drive within state lines, and 21 or older to drive across state lines. All applicants must pass a DOT medical exam by a certified provider listed on FMCSA’s National Registry. However, you are exempt from this exam if you will only be engaged in excepted commerce.

All aspiring commercial drivers must pass a 50-question general knowledge exam. All questions are based on the official Minnesota Commercial Driver’s Manual (Minnesota CDL Handbook 2025), which you should read multiple times during your learning phase. Pay close attention to the Combination Vehicles chapter, as you must also pass the official combination vehicles knowledge exam to get a Class A CDL.

Because most semi-trucks in Minnesota are equipped with air brakes, you must remove the L restriction from your CDL to legally operate them. This restriction can be removed by scoring 80% or higher on the official air brakes knowledge exam. FMCSA mandates Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) for all aspiring commercial drivers in the United States. You must complete ELDT training from a provider listed in the Training Provider Registry (TPR) before you may schedule and take the CDL skill tests.

Our Minnesota CDL Class A Practice Test is an intuitive tool designed to help you study efficiently. Use it regularly to improve your knowledge and build confidence. All 95 questions have multiple answer choices, but only one is correct. Since we have omitted any timer from this practice test, it is highly recommended that you avoid rushing. Finish each session at your own pace and use the available features to customize your testing experience.

Your dream career is within reach. It may take you weeks or months to finally get behind the wheel of a commercial vehicle, but patience and determination are the keys to success. Train with our Minnesota CDL Class A Practice Test daily and see your performance naturally improve over time.
