25 multiple-choice questions, drawn at random. You must answer 18 correctly (72%) within the 25-minute time limit.

What topics does the MA RMV permit exam cover?

Rules of the road and safe driving (the largest share), road signs and signals, alcohol and drug laws with their penalties, and Junior Operator Law restrictions.

How many languages is the MA permit exam offered in?

37 languages, with audio versions available at the testing stations.

Does the Massachusetts license require more than the written test?

Yes — after the written permit exam you must pass a road test with a RMV examiner, covering skills like parallel parking, three-point turns, backing up, and hand signals.

Worth knowing in Massachusetts

  • MA examiners still ask for hand signals: arm straight out = left, arm up = right, arm down = stop.
  • You'll park between cones or vehicles — touching one ends the test.
  • A licensed driver 21+ (often your sponsor) must be present, and the vehicle must be legal: registration, inspection sticker, working equipment.
