How long does it take to take your practical exam at the CBR?
When you’re ready to take your practical car test, you obviously don’t want to wait unnecessarily long. Proper planning is therefore essential. By applying for your driving test on time, you will ensure that your knowledge and driving skills remain current and that you can take your test without delay.
For students from Hoofddorp and Nieuw-Vennep, it is important to take into account CBR’s waiting times.
Waiting time for the first practical car exam
Applying for your practical exam is arranged through the CBR. Many students think they have to do this themselves, but usually the driving school arranges this for you.
For the first practical car exam:
- you can book an exam within about 7 weeks
- this means you have to apply for the exam about 2 months in advance
Doing so on time will help you avoid waiting longer than necessary.
Waiting time for a retake exam
There is also a waiting period for a re-exam, but it is often a little shorter. Because you have already gained driving experience, you can retake the exam sooner.
In the event of a retake, the following applies:
- booking is possible within about 5 weeks
- after a failed exam, you have to wait at least 2 weeks before you can take the exam again
Your driving instructor is aware of these rules and will help you schedule a retake immediately.
Benefits of a fixed exam date
Although waiting can sometimes seem tedious, a fixed exam date actually has advantages. You know exactly what you’re working toward, which allows you to:
- can practice in a more focused way
- can plan better
- Work toward your exam with more focus
This increases the likelihood that you will start your practical exam well prepared and confident.
