I’m interest in taking my IL CDL Class A Permit Test.

A) Here are the steps on how to take your IL CDL Class A Permit Test:

1. Meet the eligibility requirements. To be eligible to take the IL CDL Class A Permit Test, you must:
   • Be at least 18 years old
   • Have a valid driver’s license from any state
   • Pass a vision test
   • Pass a criminal background check
2. Get a CDL permit application. You can get a CDL permit application from any Illinois Secretary of State Driver Services facility.
3. Complete the application. The application will ask for your personal information, including your name, address, date of birth, and driver’s license number. You will also need to provide proof of identity and residency.
4. Pay the application fee. The application fee is $36.
5. Schedule your test. You can schedule your test online or by calling the Illinois Secretary of State’s Office.
6. Take the test. The test consists of 50 questions. You must answer at least 40 questions correctly (80%) to pass.
7. Receive your results. You will receive your results immediately after taking the test. If you pass, you will be issued a CDL permit.

Here are some tips for passing the IL CDL Class A Permit Test:

• Study the Illinois CDL manual. The manual covers all of the material that will be on the test.
• Take practice tests. There are many practice tests available online and in print. Taking practice tests will help you get familiar with the format of the test and the types of questions that will be asked.
• Get enough sleep the night before the test. Being well-rested will help you focus and concentrate during the test.
• Arrive at the testing center early. This will give you time to relax and collect your thoughts before the test begins.

I hope this helps!
