Customer feedback
We have gathered some of the feedback our customers have given. See more customer feedback.
Prøve.no is a very good practice site for those taking the exam! Many of the questions were relevant, and helped med tremendously in passing the exam. Passed the exam on my first attempt with 3 mistakes, and I very happy with that. Many of the questions on the exam coincided with questions on prøve.no, something which was very helpful.
I don't think I could have passed the theory exam without prove.no! The questions were very similar, and I think the exam was very easy after practising in there - I passed it easily on my first attempt.
