The theory test can be taken from the age of 17 and must be passed before a practical driving test can be booked (you will be asked for your theory test pass certificate number when booking).
 
When taking the theory test you will need to take along the booking confirmation letter that you will receive from the Driving Standards Agency and also both parts of your provisional licence (both the paper licence and the photocard). Without these items you will not be allowed to take the theory test.
 
To help you pass your theory test you can buy or rent DVDs for both parts of the theory test either before or after you start your driving lessons.
 
The theory test itself consists of two sections

Highway Code
 
A set of questions 50 questions. From September 2007 you'll need to get 43 of them right to pass.
 
The test is taken on a touch screen computer.
