Florida Class E Knowledge Exam

To pass this Roadwise simulation, answer at least 40 of 50 questions correctly. Answers and explanations appear after you finish. Unanswered questions count as incorrect.

This practice format uses one overall passing threshold, without a separately scored sign section.

This Roadwise practice format has no countdown, so you can take the time you need.

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.
