How long do I get access to the Module 2 study portal?
You will get 90 days access from the time of booking.
How many questions are in the Module 2 test and what is the pass mark?
You’ll be asked between 6 and 8 multiple-choice questions on each case study.
The test lasts for 1 hour 15 minutes and the pass mark is 40 out of 50.
How many questions are in the Module 4 test and what is the pass rate?
The test is made up of 5 topics from the Driver CPC syllabus. You can score up to 20 points for each topic.
To pass you have to score at least 15 out of 20 in each topic area and have an overall score of at least 80 out of 100.
What if I fail either of the tests?
If you fail a test, you will only need to re-book the test element and the learning resources will be left open to you as part of your original booking.
What are the pass rates?
Pass rates are generally very high but that all depends on the candidate. Whilst generally being common sense questions on the Module 2 you will still need to study in the same way you would for your theory test.
In regards to the module 4 the questions are geared towards the use of the vehicle outside of driving it, therefor studying is necessary in order to familiarise yourself with the controls etc.
How long do I have to wait to find out my results?
You will find out the results to both tests immediately after you have taken them, there is no prolonged wait afterwards.
How long does the CPC last for?
Once you obtain your Initial CPC you will be issued with your Driver Qualification Card. This card is valid for 5 years and has the expiration date on the reverse. In order to extend the validity of your DQC you are required to attend 35 hours of periodic CPC training before the expiration date. Once completed you will be issued a new DQC with a further 5 years lifespan on it.
*Please note that you will not receive a new DQC until the last 12 months of its validity.
Can I do both tests on the same day?
Yes, you can! If you are looking for a fast-track way of getting your Initial CPC then take a look at the options that we provide in our Book Now section – HERE.
