Topic 23875 | Page 2
Im happy to report ive been averaging 70-90% (mostly 80-90%) on the various cdl exams found online. I know anything less then 80% is not passing, but most of those have been silly mistakes like wording or misclicks. ... Not gonna get my hopes up, but Im faily sure I will able to pass it on the first go. Tanker, Combination, and Airbrakes Ive also been averaging 80-90% on.
Your hopes can be up, just keep them in check. I was doing the same thing, I would misread a question or not go through all answers as I should. I'd go back to look at the correct answer and realize I was an idiot and knew the answer but just didn't read carefully. I learned to just take note and make sure to slow down and carefully read the questions and all answers, then make my choice (rather than looking for the right answer or answer I expected to be there). It developed into a habit that I found myself using on the actual test; some questions/answers I reread three times just to make sure of my answer and understanding. Sounds like you'll be fine. The main thing is keeping the info fresh and when you feel ready, go for it.

Im happy to report ive been averaging 70-90% (mostly 80-90%) on the various cdl exams found online. I know anything less then 80% is not passing, but most of those have been silly mistakes like wording or misclicks. Anyways, I can guarantee you before I started the high road training, I would have never gotten anything higher then a 20 or 30%. On top of the high road, using all the other various resources out there such as youtube and cdl manuals, I think Ive got a real good chance of passing the CLP on the first go around. Not gonna get my hopes up, but Im faily sure I will able to pass it on the first go. Tanker, Combination, and Airbrakes Ive also been averaging 80-90% on.
