ND DOT Written Test Simulator – Study Online 2025
With a North Dakota driver’s license, you can drive your whole family to all sorts of family-friendly destinations: the Roosevelt Park Zoo in Minot, the Theodore Roosevelt National Park in the Badlands, the West Acres Mall in Fargo, and many more. Or take them on a scenic drive along the Enchanted Highway or North Dakota Highway 5. Or go anywhere else you desire.
To obtain a driver’s license, you must meet a series of requirements. One crucial requirement is to pass the official 25-question knowledge test. The passing score is 80%. If you’re under 18, passing this test is key to obtaining a learner’s permit, which will allow you to practice driving under supervision. However, passing the knowledge test isn’t as easy as you may think. In 2020 – 2023, about 42.5% of applicants failed the North Dakota DOT knowledge test on their first attempt. Evidently, just reading the official driver’s manual (North Dakota DMV Handbook (ND Driver's Manual) 2025) a couple of times before the knowledge test did not prepare them well enough to pass.
We want to make sure that you pass. Our knowledge test preparation program includes various interactive tools you can use to ensure you absorb and memorize all the relevant information. It includes a series of practice tests based on the official manual. Each practice test comes with our automated assistant to give you hints and explanations to speed up your learning process. We guarantee our program works! If you follow our entire program and still fail the knowledge test, we’ll cheerfully refund your money.
Once you’ve learned about safe driving, there’s one more thing to learn: what is the official knowledge test like? Do official exams tend to give you test anxiety? Then this Exam Simulator test that you’re about to take is just what you need.
This Exam Simulator test closely resembles official exam conditions. The test consists of 25 questions based on the official manual, just like those on the official DOT knowledge test. The passing score is 80%, just like the official permit test. There are no hints or other aids to help you answer the test questions. And the test ends prematurely if you fail it (i.e., you miss more than 20% of the questions).
By giving you a realistic exam experience now, you’ll learn what to expect on the official knowledge test. This will reduce the chance of an unpleasant surprise on the official knowledge test and help build your confidence that you can easily ace the official test on your first try.
Good luck!
