Florida Class E Knowledge Exam

This Roadwise course uses a 50-question practice test with 40 correct answers needed to pass. The format can depend on your age, license class, or application type.

The handbook states the exam format (50 questions, p.28) but does not itself state the passing score. The 40/50 (80%) passing score is confirmed on the official FLHSMV website. No separate scored sections; the exam is a single combined test.
