    Look carefully at each question and read all options. About 50 percent of the questions can be answered correctly by using common sense. The remainder will need some knowledge but keep running through the app and you really should get it.
    Not wishing to insult but anyone can pass it with enough trials. One man I know was having problems but he was panicking and not reasoning out each question.
    When he took his time, thought about each question, he got the hang of it in 3 days and got 38 from 40 in official test.

    Get the handbook Rules of the road (online for free) and read it cover to cover. If there is anything you don't understand, ask someone who drives to explain why.

    The stopping distance questions can be tricky but you should really get a handle on most of the topics.
    Do you want to post some questions that you are struggling with and maybe we can reason them out for you :)
