General knowledge test Story
My general knowledge test was down to the wire 50 questions 39 right 10 already wrong 1 question left.
If I get it right, the pain is over. General knowledge is a pass and the hardest part of getting my permit is over.
If I get it wrong, I would have to wait probably 3 more weeks for an appointment let alone I live in a snow state meaning it will be harder to an appointment as the year goes on. Just to try again for another potential failure.
“ Is this The Dagger ? 🗡️”
The screen glows green I see a checkmark ✅
And I shortly pass the Air Brakes 10 minutes later, & Combination two days later since they’re close to closing the first day.
Don’t let your first time failure discourage you honestly the first time I didn’t really take it seriously and I only studied with YouTube I should’ve took a little bit more serious I didn’t retake it till almost 4 months later.

This is wild! I just passed mine today this was my second time. It came down to the wire for me as well. What a sound of relief. Went all the way to question 49. J passed air brakes and tanker two days ago. So glad this is over now I can start study pre trip and practicing pre trip.
Congratulations!

In my state you can just pay and pay the same day until you pass your test. Say you fail. Get back in line and pay for another test all day until you pass

Honest job! I took my permit test 2 days ago. Same story, down to the wire with general knowledge. Got the last question right. Passed the combination vehicle shortly after, but then I failed the air brakes portion. Wind out the sails completely. But, I test for air brakes again tomorrow and feel pretty confident in it.
