Ratings and reviews

This app is very helpful and has everything needed to study for the written test. I really liked the flash cards and the option of taking a 270 question test. The only reason I didn't give this app 5 stars was because the ads really broke my concentration. There were ads every 5 or so questions during the practice test. Maybe provide an option to watch longer ads before the test? Otherwise an excellent app.

I was nervous that the app wouldn't be helpful. But it really was. I went through it and practiced. also read the DMV handbook on the DMV app and it helped a lot. and I was able to pass my written test.

used marathon test to make study notes for missed questions. Easier than reading and rereading DMV material. better than others have tried.
