DMV Permit Practice Test Genie Reviews

by RPrewett

It’s absolutely ridiculous that the creators created this new premium feature that it’s very expensive. I was lucky enough to have taken the test two days before the update came out so I was able to access all the tests, some of which are now charged for. I had recommended this to my friends who will be taking their tests in the upcoming months but I’m going to go right back to them and tell them forget it because DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is just about useless now. They say the “core functionality” is still there, but the most helpful tests like marathon and the road signs test have been set to premium. They may have added some other tests, but many other people along with me were able to pass without all those added tests. But, the following text is what my original review said when DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie was FREE.
“ DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie IS AMAZING! After passing all the practice tests, I was able to pass my permit test without getting any wrong! I got all 18 I needed to get right straight away! I would also recommend, at least for MA, reading/skimming through the drivers manual! You got this!”

So DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is pretty good; it’s motivational, has lots of questions, and makes sure you review anything you got wrong. I’m glad it worked out for so many people but the road test practice questions for the New Jersey road test needs to be updated. Considering there were 10 tests, one of them being 360 questions, I’d feel I knew a good amount of questions for the road test. But during the test I’d say only roughly 15 seemed remotely familiar. The rest I knew from the drivers manual. Plus during the actual test, the choices I had learned to choose from DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie were wrong. I wish I could post them so changes can be made but I don’t remember them. Also I know DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie has repeat questions so people can review what they learned in the past but the frequency of the repeats is too often, there should be more varied questions to review for more information. If you’re taking the road test, use DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie first since it seems easy to learn with but then read the actual manual to make sure the information you need to focus on for your state is accurate.

It’s a very helpful app with questions pertaining to my state that helped me ace my permit test, but now that my permit expired and I have to take the test again, I’m noticing new problems.

Most notably, whenever I’m supposed to get my results after finishing the practice test to see how I would do on the actual exam, I get “0% questions answered” and “0% questions correct” even though all the questions were answered and correct. This is something that needs to be fixed really soon if DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is supposed to help me for the test I’m supposed to take again soon.

Other than that the only other things I can complain about are the recent paywall which is annoying (and which wouldn’t really seem like a great investment for $10 unless you’re THAT terrible at taking the test), but the content that seems to be locked probably doesn’t show up very much on the exam (at least in my state).

I am using DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie to help my teenager study for their Driver’s Permit. First of all, it says that you can family share however when I purchased the lifetime membership, it only applied it to one of my devices so my kid has to use my ipad to study instead of their own phone - simple inconvenience.

When doing the final exam simulator, there are supposed to be 3 exams, and there are. However, it will only log that my kid took 1 exam and this is frustrating to her as she does not see her success rate go up nor her likelihood of passing go up. After taking the 3 practice exams, if you hit “next test” (even though it says you’re still on test 1) it just cycles out of the exam test prep.

We will find out in a few days if DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie actually helped. She has failed by 1-2 questions on each of her prior attempts to pass the written test. I feel she is more prepared this time around but only time will tell.

I have to say that DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie helped me pass all my tests first time around. I did go through the book to make sure of WHY on some of the answers, like a little more clarification for my own understanding…THATS ME!! When you go though these practice tests, make sure you read the extra knowledge provided with the answers. That will help to answer other questions. It’s a big help to read through each answer and also some of the hints. I was happy to have been told about DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie through one of my instructors. I went through each section one by one… going over each tests until I made a 100% correct with only missing one or two BECAUSE of how they word it on the test at the DMV. I passed and will continue to use DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie when I further my experience in different areas such as bus/motorcycle. Take your time…it does get easy when you practice practice practice. Read/skim the book too

Just passed my written permit test in California (46 questions) and used DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie to prepare. Highly recommend supplementing this resource into your studying for the test. I did not purchase premium but used all three practice tests, the diagnostic, and the road signs mini test. That was sufficient enough for me but I am sure that getting premium would be even better. The information and wording is incredibly accurate to what shows up on the actual test. I came across a few questions on the exam that were formatted the exact same way on a practice test here. The marathon tests are also very helpful for reviewing the questions you scored poorly at. I think the best thing you can do to prepare is to READ the Driver’s Manual frequently and use DMV genie to familiarize yourself with the test-taking. Don’t stress too much but if you study sufficiently, you will be destined for greatness!

I passed my permit test today with 2 wrong. I used DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie for a good month, and i also paid for premium. If you want to pass the first time, i recommend buying premium, it unlocks so many more tests and questions that I know I wouldn’t have passed without. I also cannot stress this enough, READ YOUR STATES MANUAL!! You can’t rely on DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie with only practice tests. Everything on the test today came straight from the book. When you get DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie , you can read your states manual from in DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie as well. But i really recommend premium to anyone who’s going to consider it, I doubt i would’ve passed if I didn’t have it. Premium is definitely worth the money, and it really helped me pass the real test! To anyone studying, good luck!

I like this one more than the other apps because it does more to keep track of your progress. I downloaded so many practice test apps and this one surpassed the others by FAR. I loved the challenge bank feature and the review feature and even the fact that it’ll give you a little hint sometimes if you really need it. It also has different levels of difficulty for the test so you can keep progressing your abilities. My favorite feature though, is the explanation feature. I love that whether you get the question right or wrong it explains what the right answer is. It has different tests for different states, and it’s very, very helpful. Wonderful app, would continuously recommend to anyone searching for practice test apps!

So happy that I used DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie to help me study! It made the test feel really easy! The first time I tried taking the test last year, I used different means of studying, and unfortunately did not pass. However, DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie was wonderfully helpful, and I passed with little difficulty this time around! The way DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is designed is very user friendly, but most importantly, it helps you to retain information in a fun, informative, and sustainable way. The smaller tests really teach you the information; and I loved the marathon tests, where it kept giving you the questions you got wrong until you’ve proven that you’ve learned them. My process: I went through all the tests in order, followed by going through the marathons again to review, then used “exam mode” before wrapping up. And then on test day (while I waited in line at the RMV), I took the “exam mode” again and again probably 15 or 20 times just to refresh. I tried many different programs, and this is by far the best app in my opinion!

Okay, so I was skeptical about DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie actually testing you on the actually test questions. But let me tell you DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is 100% worth the money. I studied for my class A in California with DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie, that’s general knowledge, air brakes, combination, triples/doubles, and tank. I paid for DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie Sunday February 23th, I studied until Tuesday February 25th and took all tests on that afternoon. I was shocked to find that not only did DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie prepare me more than enough, the questions it was quizzing me on... were EXACTLY the same as on the test. I passed all 5 tests in about 30 minutes, missing only 2 questions total(both my fault for quickly skimming the question) so if you’re looking for a good way to study for your Class A I can not recommend DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie enough. Do It! You won’t regret it

I tried reading the book and nothing stood in my head, so I tried DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie and started doing the quizzes. I went to take the general knowledge and air brakes test and failed. So what I didn’t notice was that DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie has a section where you can get a pdf of all the most commonly used questions and answers. I read them thoroughly and did well on the quizzes. I went my second time to take general knowledge and air brakes and passed both. I studied for tanker and combination the same way and passed both tests the first time. I’ve heard people taking these tests over and over and failing and those same people telling me it’s super hard. So I think DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie really helps, if you study the PDFs and do the quizzes. I’ve told other people about DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie and they have passed as well.

I paid for the full access for a week version, I do really enjoy the way that DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie teaches, explaining why the answer is correct and I like having the accumulative test so it gives an opportunity to refresh your knowledge without having to go to each individual test. That being said I live in Washington which is said to have the hardest knowledge test out of all of the states. There were little to few actual questions from dmv genie on the knowledge test, but a lot of the same concepts. DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is not to give you answers it is to help you learn concepts so you can answer questions similarly on your own. The only question I recall that was on the exam that was not on dmv genie was about inattentional blindness and a question about where the headrest should be. I used dmv genie, read the drivers guide, and used a few other website with practice questions and I got a 38/40. Make sure you relax, read the questions carefully and take your time. Not everyone passes on their first try so if you don’t it’s okay you’ll know what to study for next time.

I bought DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie full version for $9.99 because I really thought DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie was helping me study & I wanted access to everything, even though the free version is also very helpful! I have been studying with DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie for about 4 days & today I took my written drivers test AND PASSED THE FIRST TIME!! I saw so many of the exact same questions on the actual exam as I did here! I loved that you selected your own state and it didn’t just go over the rules of the road but also covered age restrictions on each licenses & alcohol Limits (both that were on my actual test) as well as a wide variety of signs &Scenarios. I felt confident and prepared for my test today & passed no problem! I would definitely recommend DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie especially the full version to anyone wanting to take the written exam!

I have a question on the Arkansas DMV practice test on your app with the question
"Two cars are parked outside of a fire station. Which one is most true?"
The answers were ;

Car a must remain 25 feet away from the driveway. And car b must remain 75 feet from the driveway.

Car a must not park across the driveway

Car a must remain at least 20 feet from the driveway.

And the answer I put was "car must remain at least 20 feet from the driveway"
And it was apparently wrong and the right answer is "car a must remain 20feet away from the driveway in a car be must remain 75 feet from the driveway."

But yet it says nothing about 75 feet and my driver handbook and so I'm wondering where you found that?
Because the only thing it says on my handbook is "do not park within 20 feet of a fire station driveway on the same side of the street, or street where proper signs are posted."
Says nothing about 75 feet.

UPDATE:
I had a book from a previous year and looked it up on there and guess what it does have it! It makes me so mad they make all all these book without any of the right information on it. Because the new book didn't have any thing about the 75 feet like the old book does. The new books sentences would just cut off and was just not very helpful.

Oh and i passed my test but I also read the book once before I took the test.

At first I was nervous cause, I thought it’s just a normal app with lies. Then I started studying it and wow it blew my mind. Especially when I studied the exam. At first I studied the “test” on here and went to the DMV and failed my tests on the first try😔. I got really discouraged. But I asked myself, what’s the difference between “test” and the “exam “ on here. It’s totally different. Once I started studying the exam part, it had different questions and answers. I studied the exam on here and pass all my tests on the second try with flying colors. The questions and answers are the Exact same in the DMV. It blew my mind how DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie helps you some much. I never read the book, I only studied DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie and I passed all my tests. Now I’m going back to take all my endorsements. I never in my life wrote a review but DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie changed my life and gave me so much hope. I will recommend DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie to everybody. DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is legit.

Be sure to utilize all the CDL questions for MA (or your state). I like that the questions were very accurate and were repetitive along with the wrong answers corrected with info from the RMV itself. Which DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie gives you access to. DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie provides the drivers DMV for your state. USE IT!!!

The questions in the general knowledge practice test in app were very much, almost identically worded like the RMV exam questions. Most ALL of the Class B exams questions were pretty relative

I used all the test questions (especially the marathon tests) in DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie and studied approx. 6 hrs again before I took the CDL exam and PASSED. What I liked most about the marathon questions is the fact that there were other questions that I hadn’t been asked using the other test questions. With that being said, I did everything in order and then took DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie exam as if it were the RMV exam. Repetition is key to the questions you may be struggling with.

I passed today and was very pleased. I paid for lifetime access option because I plan to take other endorsements in the future. And I’ll get updates of new info since regulations and things are changing post Covid-19 in this industry.

Well worth the investment in yourself and your future in the professional commercial driving industry of all types either way you choose to pay.

So because my original permit cared expired with the blue card that I got in my sophomore year of high school , my local DMV in Newark, New Jersey told me I had to take the written exam again because I am eighteen. So I’m freaking out because I thought for sure I was going to fail. But my beat friend recommended DMV Genie to me because that’s how she passed her first time. I literally scheduled my written test exam three weeks after I went to the DMV. I studied DMV Genie’s free practice tests for like an hour each night and they sure payed off! I passed my written test today and I owe it all to DMV genie for refreshing my brain!Moral to the story ladies and gents please get everything done before your permit expires when you first take your test in high school! Thanks again, I highly recommend DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie to everybody who needs to study for the written exam and they have a practice test for every state as well!

I downloaded DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie 2 days prior to my exam; I had been taking some online practice tests here and there but questions were often misleading so I felt like my learning was going nowhere. When I got DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie I found that I was retaining the information; that’s probably because DMV Genie made it clear and fun to do. The day before the exam, I read through the DMV manual to clarify any additional questions I had and studied the marathon questions. My final study session was a mini one; while waiting to be called at the DMV I studied challenge bank questions and then gave my mind a rest once I was through with them.

The permit test is exactly, if not, very similar to the questions I was given on DMV Genie and I’m so grateful for it. I only missed 2 on the exam which says a lot about the effectiveness of DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie considering that I crammed my study sessions over the weekend. Thank you DMV Genie!

I don’t usually write reviews for apps but for this one, I just couldn’t resist! At first, I didn’t want to pay for DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie when there are many tests I could take online for free but they were confusing and couldn’t keep track of my progress like this one. So when I downloaded it, I took the free tests but hesitated paying for this but it was the best option I had so far. So, I paid and expected it to pay off because as a college student, every penny counts for me. I had briefly skimmed the handbook so when I started taking the tests on here, I had some difficulties. I did however go through everything in 2 days and was ready to take my test! I went to the California dmv and aced it the first time. Most of the questions asked on the test were on here and I finished in less than 10 minutes!
It is 100% worth it!
Thank you DMV Genie! Thank you

My friend recently took her permit test using DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie, and she recommended it to me. I gave it a try at first, and it was rather difficult. However, this was because it was my first time taking the quizzes, so there’s no blame on DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie . After taking the quizzes repeatedly until I got 100% each time I took them, I was ready for the simulation. I only failed once to get a pass right afterward! Every time after, I passed as well; sometimes I even got 100%. I went to the DMV this morning, took my test online, and the questions were almost EXACT to the ones on DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie . Only reworded! I passed my permit test with only 2 wrong answers, but I flew through the exam. I highly recommend DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie to people who are unsure about what’s on the test. DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is very accurate to what you’ll see at the DMV. If you want to go the extra distance and get premium, feel free. I did not purchase premium and STILL ended up passing. PLEASE DOWNLOAD!

I have been going over the NY CDL handbook for some time, but never committed enough, I found DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie about two months ago and I went on DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie every time I felt bored or just to try it out, after almost two months -having previously read the book over a couple of times- I went took and passed my CDL B permit !! Thanks to this easy user friendly app!! I couldn’t be any happier, thank you !!!...The main reason of my review was to let every user and admin that DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie DO work!! Now I go back in DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie and there is a $9.99 for Pro version that was NOT needed to be paid for before, I mean I get it, but your app has thousands of downloads plus people like me share and recommend your app sadly now we got to pay to get multiple test and questions not being repeated, basically:(

by Thapein

When I first took my DMV test I absolutely failed and was frustrated. The questions seemed so impossible and I felt like they literally MADE NO SENSE. I would have never thought that an app like this could ever make the test SO EASY.
So to start off, DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie (when fully purchased) gives you 3 different sets of tests. It gives you a set of test with all the Easy questions, Medium, and Hard.
When you start off, you choose the test you want to take and when you begin the test, if you get an answer wrong, it 100% explains what the correct answer is supposed to be FOR EVERY QUESTION! So there are no confusions!
When you retake a test, you cannot rely on muscle memory because the order of the questions and answers change every time, making it so that you have to actually read the question and think it out.
DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is so good at what it does that when you go in to take the real DMV test, you’re going to be SHOOK TO THE GROUND at how easy the real test is!
I feel like this was literally a better test than the actual DMV test!

100% 10/10 Five stars! DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie is flipping amazing! :)

I had DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie when I got my learners in Washington DC. I studied everyday when I had nothing to do. Or when I was bored. I got it the second try. I recently had to move into Maryland and sense I wasn’t able to transfer over my learners. I decided to get get DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie to help me out. I didn’t know that I had to pay this time. But I am glad I had to. Because the first try I got my learners. I feel the price isn’t bad. And the tests prepares more then anything they have currently out there. I am 33 with a full time job and working to start my own business. If I can get two learners off of DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie and pass two different state test. I know a teenager 16 years of age can pass their test if the focus each day and study for a month straight like I did.

by Michaelsjohndeere

If the permit test were the same this would be great to prepare you for it. But given the test at the Maryland DMV seems to jump all over the place with the questions (I.e. air brake questions on combinations test after you have passed air brakes) it doesn’t help given the DMV ability to ask just about anything regardless of the test title. I rated it 5 stars as it has a good interface and gives some help. I guess my frustration is partially biased as I am able to drive a Class A truck with air brakes with no special license for farm use on the same roads. But be it any other job I’m required to pass a written test! So just keep taking all the tests even if you don’t think you need to after passing some sections.

by E-man1128

Passed my IL Class A CDL exams (all endorsements) using this incredible app! Questions are almost identical to ones on the exam. You can use it without using the study guide or it will easily supplement it. Either way you can't go wrong with DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie! One thing I notice unlike any other practice exams out there is that DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie doesn't just ask you the same questions over and over (which you'll eventually learn by muscle memory) it completely switches the questions up on you and even throws random questions from the study guide to try and stomp you!! And to top it all off you can use the challenge bank to go over incorrect answers from all sections combined!! Genius!!!

by Meloo D

If you hate sifting through traditional manuals and want only the most important information thats needed study this beginning to end im a procrastinator and waited until the last minute so i had to take my general test and my hazmat tanker doubles and triples and combination all at once and i passed 4/6 after only studying for one night i found it most effective to write down the ones you got wrong and do your challenge bank which has all the questions you got wrong after it bulids up to 30+ questions and youll be set idk how they did it but a lot of the questions i saw on here was on the actual test best 10 dollars i ever spent on an app 5/5

by RichieCarey

Bought DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie , messed around with it for two straight days, then went and took my test and Aced it!!!

I will say there were a few awkward questions on the test that weren’t gone over in DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie . One was when do you talk to your passenger. A few others I believed the answer was all of them, but that wasn’t an option. So, you just had to choose the one that best answered the question. Most of those were in DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie somewhere, but in DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie had an all of these option as an answer.

You have to answer 19 out of 25 correct on the actual test. I would say 15 of the questions I answered were almost Word for Word exactly like they were in DMVPermitPracticeTestGenie .
