Slough theory test centre
Brooklands House, Brooklands Business Park, Petersfield Avenue, Slough, SL2 5DY
On the day
Bring your photocard provisional licence; without it the test cannot go ahead and the fee is lost. Arrive 15 minutes early: you will be photographed, your pockets checked, and your belongings locked away. The car theory test is 50 multiple-choice questions (43 to pass) followed by 14 hazard perception clips (44 out of 75 to pass), about 80 minutes in all. The result is printed before you leave and is valid for two years.
Theory tests are booked at GOV.UK for £23. This centre is run for the DVSA by a contractor; it has no examiners and no practical tests.

The theory test is marked by computer from a national question bank, so a difference between centres says more about who books there than about the centre itself. Compare it with every other theory centre.
