SAAQ practice test: preparing for the knowledge test

Updated

A good practice test for the SAAQ knowledge test does one thing above all: reproduce the real test. The same structure — 28 questions · 3 sections · 75% each —, a timed run, no hints along the way, and a verdict given section by section. Practising in any other format means measuring yourself against a different test than the one you’ll sit.

What a good practice test reproduces

Practising is more than mock tests

A mock test measures; it doesn’t teach. Most of the preparation happens elsewhere:

When to book the real test

When your results clear the threshold with a margin — in each section, not on average. Each attempt at the SAAQ costs $13.50: a good reason to book ready, rather than to “go see”. Permis 101’s readiness score is measured per section, across the whole bank, and the app tells you when that moment has come.

Try it free

Permis 101 can be tried with no account and no time limit: 15 questions with full explanations, 3 right-of-way scenarios, a preview of the sign library. The full mock test and the bank of about 600 questions are part of full access — one purchase, for life.

Frequently asked questions

Is Permis 101’s mock test timed?

Yes — like the real one. The test runs with no feedback along the way, and the result lands at the end: a verdict per section, at the real pass thresholds.

How many questions are in the bank?

The bank holds about 600 questions, all original and verified against the SAAQ’s official study guides — each with an explanation that cites its source.

Can I practise offline?

Yes. The free content is built into the app; after the purchase, the full bank downloads once, and then practice, mock tests and review all work without a connection.

How many mock tests can I take?

As many as you want — mock tests are unlimited with full access. The free preview is there to show you how the app works: 15 explained questions, 3 right-of-way scenarios, a preview of the sign library.
