Everything You Need for the Texas DPS Knowledge Exam
All 332 questions come from the Texas Driver Handbook (DL-7, revised January 2026), and each one cites the page its answer is on.
Exam Simulation
A timed 30-question simulation with a pass mark of 21. That is 70 percent, the grade DPS requires on any knowledge exam. DPS does not publish how many questions the real exam has, so treat 30 as a practice length.
Flexible Practice
Pick 10, 20, or 30 questions per session and go at your own pace.
Readiness Score
An adaptive gauge that tracks your progress and tells you when you're ready for the real test.
Topic Filtering
Focus on any of the 11 topics. Frontage roads, the Slow Down or Move Over law, Texas insurance minimums, or whatever you keep getting wrong.
Missed Questions Review
Every question you miss gets saved so you can come back to it. Fix the weak spots instead of re-reading all 91 pages of the handbook.

Common questions about Drive Prep TX
What is Drive Prep TX?
Drive Prep TX is the Texas edition of the Drive Prep mobile app, for the Texas DPS knowledge exam (the written permit test). It has 332 practice questions written from the official Texas Driver Handbook (DL-7, revised January 2026), each citing the handbook page, in 11 languages.
Does Drive Prep TX work offline?
Yes, studying is 100% offline. There is no internet connection or account needed, and every question and all of your progress data are stored on your device. Only the one-time purchase needs a connection.
How many questions does Drive Prep TX have?
332 practice questions covering the handbook's 11 topics, every one of them based on the official Texas Driver Handbook and cited to its page.
How is the exam simulation scored?
The simulation is a timed 30-question test with a pass mark of 21 correct, which is 70 percent. Seventy percent is the grade DPS publishes for passing any knowledge exam. DPS does not publish how many questions the real Class C exam has, so the 30 is this app's practice length, not a claim about the official test.
What languages is Drive Prep TX available in?
Drive Prep is available in 11 languages: English, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Vietnamese, and Polish. Every Texas question is translated into all of them.
How much does Drive Prep TX cost?
Drive Prep is free to download and try: a sample of every topic, unlimited practice tests and one full exam simulation. Unlocking the full question bank is a one-time $4.99 purchase that covers every state the app supports, including ones added later. No subscriptions, no ads, no ad tracking. Your progress stays on your device.
What topics does Drive Prep TX cover?
The 11 topics of the Texas handbook: signs and signals, rules of the road, safety, alcohol and drugs, speed and right-of-way, parking, emergencies, sharing the road, licensing, insurance and registration, and vehicle equipment. Texas has no points topic, because its Driver Responsibility Program was repealed in 2019. Practice sessions can be filtered by topic.
