Applicants applying for a Maryland driver’s license for the first time must pass the Maryland permit test before obtaining the learner’s permit.
Anyone holding a driver’s license issued out of the country, or a driver’s license issued in the USA but expired more than one year is also required to pass the MVA written test.
How to pass the Maryland permit test easily? Well, the very first thing you need to do is study; that’s a fact. We highly recommend watching our YouTube videos to get an idea of what the test questions look like. Next, read the MVA study manual. Keep in mind that all the questions you’ll answer are based on the MVA manual.
If you prefer listening over reading, we’ve got you covered. You can listen to the entire MVA manual anytime, whether you’re at the gym or driving. The only section not covered in this audio is traffic signs, which you can study separately.
When you start the test, your timer begins ticking. You have only 20 minutes to answer 25 questions. First, read the question, then select the appropriate answer. You’ll need to confirm your answer to proceed to the next question. While most questions are straightforward some of them can be a little tricky.
You’re allowed a maximum of three mistakes. If you make four mistakes, your test will be discontinued, even if you have more time remaining.
The Maryland permit test allows you to skip three questions. How does it work, and why does it matter? Any question you’re unsure about can be skipped without counting as a wrong answer. So, it’s a good strategy.
You know you only need to answer 23 out of the 25 questions to pass the test. By skipping three questions and answering the other 23, you can pass the test without having to answer the three most challenging questions for you. That’s the catch.
However, if you’re unable to answer the remaining 23 questions correctly, the skipped questions will come up at the end of the test.
Don’t be nervous, especially at the beginning of the test. Take your time to read and answer the questions. Even though you have 20 minutes for 25 questions, we believe it’s quite enough for most applicants to complete the Maryland permit test.
Use the provided headphones and adjust the audio volume to your preference. This will not only allow you to listen to the questions clearly but also reduce distractions from the noise made by other applicants, allowing you to focus fully on the test.
Lastly, select your preferred language. The Maryland MVA permit test is available in multiple languages.
By following these steps, We believe you can approach the Maryland permit test with confidence.

Can I Skip Questions
Applicants are eligible to skip three questions. Assume an applicant answered all other 22 questions correctly; they will pass the test. However, skipped questions will appear again at the end of the test if someone answers any question wrong.
We suggest using the skip method if you are unsure about the answer to any question.
