DMV permit practice tests by state

Among the states OneTryPass has checked, Maryland sets the highest bar at 88%. Arizona, California, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah and Wisconsin require 80%; Ohio requires 75%; Michigan and Texas require 70%. Each figure comes from the state's own DMV pages, checked on Oct 26, 2026.

Of the states on OneTryPass, Alaska, Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, North Dakota and South Dakota issue a permit at 14; Idaho and Montana at 14½; Alabama, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming at 15; Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Ohio and Virginia at 15½; Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island at 16. Each state page lists the driver education and documents it requires.

Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas and Wyoming do not state the number of questions on the official pages OneTryPass checked, so the cell stays empty instead of repeating a figure from an unofficial site. Georgia (2 parts of 20) and Virginia (10 + 30, in 2 parts) split the test into two parts, each with its own passing score, so there is no single total for the table; the state page has both parts. Where the agency publishes the passing score, it is in the table.
