About The CDL Test
To earn your Commercial Driver’s License (CDL), you’ll need to pass both a driving skills test as well as your state’s general knowledge test along with any additional endorsement tests that accompany the license you seek. The tests vary in the number of questions, but typically you need to achieve a score of 80% or better to pass.
Studying For The CDL Test
The most important piece of CDL prep material that you can spend time with is your state’s CDL manual. It’s critical that you have a copy of your state’s current version of the manual. It contains all of the vital information you’ll need to know to pass both the knowledge tests as well as the skills test. On top of that, it will contain all of the latest info on eligibility, requirements, and testing methods that come along with earning a CDL in your specific state.
If you’re putting together a homemade CDL study guide, you won’t get far without your state’s CDL manual. A quick Google search should help you find the most recent version.
