    Not sure if this is the right place to post but I wanted to see if there was a consensus about the worth of practice tests. I've taken a few online one being the one here and they seem to be simply common sense I've gotten 100% on most of them never under a 95%. Are they fairly close to an actual test. I'm a little suspect as they seem too easy, or is the actual test not all that difficult?

    Thanks!

    I've never taken a practice test, everything in the state issued FMC/CDL (<---or whatever the book is called?) is in it. I renewed and took exam again 2 yrs ago. I can't think of an exact question, but they try to trick you with being overly cautious when instead it asks for the specific rule... example: you should follow a vehicle in front at a distance of 10x your truck length, 5x, 2,x or none of the above. <---the answer is none above. Get what I mean?

    95% I'm sure they are drilling you harder than state exam, you'll do fine! Tell us how you did when you take the test.
    Wish you luck!

    I'm a ways out yet from taking the exam, I just printed the state manual today. I'll flip through it tonight and see what else will be necessary to proceed. I will definitely post back with the results.

    i would say read each question twice before answering. the tests here are about the same as the one c1 school qives but theese have a little more to them ( harder ) but if your getting 100 % and havent even studdied ? i just wish i were that smart. it took me hours to get that good. Truck on !

    THanks for the heads up... I think I was lucky on the first couple didn't do as well on subsequent attempts, but not all that awful... I'll keep at it thanks!
