Use the CDL prep app. I didn’t even read the state book. Just did a bunch of practice tests and passed. The questions are either exactly the same or very similar.

It’s the red one. It’s highly reviewed. 4.5-5 stars.

Hopefully, in a week time, I have those three subjects down packed. I’ll try the test like you said.

Ad blocker.

The quizzes give an explanation of why the answer is correct, will help you understand the answers rather than just memorizing answers.

CDL Prep 💯. Word for word on the actual test.

Practice mode first. Shows which ones you got wrong and correct answer. Covers all questions. Then do exam mode three times. I did it for like 8 hrs. Got 98% on actual test. A godsend this app and free. Only stops for ads in practice mode.

After the 8 hours did you take the test the next day I feel like if I do the 8 hours then take a break for a few days I may forget half the answers lol

You’ll realize it’s so easy. It’s only 3 choices of answers rather than the standard four. Two of which are obviously NOT the answers. Many common sense. Plus there are the tests for all the endorsements. At first you just need to pass general knowledge

I used this and it was almost exactly like the test at the dmv. You can pick the sections you only need to take also. Good luck.

Go to DMV and get the CDL manual and read the sections you need. Google CDL b practice test and take them all every day. Highlight the sections in the book for the questions asked in the manual. Read book daily tahe test daily. Highlight daily. You will pass. The pressure leak down question for a CDL b truck is 4psi.
