• When you present these documents they will give you a written test.  You have three chances to pass it.  You will get your permit and your picture taken the day you pass. (There are 46 questions on the test. A passing score is at least 39 correct answers. You have three chances to pass the test. If you fail, you must wait 7 days before taking it again).

Note: You do not need an appointment and you can go to the DMV by yourself.

Note: If you are at least 17 ½ you may obtain a permit without completing DE/DT. However, to get a license before you are 18 years old, you must provide proof of DE/DT completion.
