Common Mistakes to Avoid on Test Day

Even if you’ve studied thoroughly, small mistakes can trip you up on exam day. Here’s how to avoid them:

Not Reading the Questions Carefully: Take your time to fully understand each question before answering.
Overthinking: If you’re unsure of an answer, go with your first instinct—second-guessing often leads to mistakes.
Neglecting Key Topics: Don’t skip studying sections like road signs or basic traffic laws, as these are heavily tested.
Skipping Breakfast: Fuel your brain with a light meal and stay hydrated—it makes a big difference!
Arriving Late: Aim to arrive 15–30 minutes early to avoid rushing.

What Happens If You Don’t Pass?

Don’t stress! If you don’t pass the written test on your first attempt, you can retake it after one business day. Take the extra time to review any missed questions and refine your knowledge.
