Day 1-3: Start with the basics

Use our online learning platform RAPP to learn the basic rules and traffic signs.

• Read a few chapters every day.

• Take a quiz after each chapter to see if you have understood everything correctly.

• Pay special attention to rules regarding right of way, signs, speeds, and hazardous situations.

Tip: Write down difficult rules or take screenshots – that will help you later when revising.

Day 4: Intensive practice with questions

Time to test yourself! From now on, the focus is on practice exams and realistic questions.

• Complete 5-6 practice exams daily.

• Note every mistake you make, and understand why you were wrong.

• Review challenging topics (e.g., intersections, right of way rules, fines...).

Tip: Try to see the questions as stories or situations – this helps you remember them better.

Day 5: Identify and strengthen your weaknesses

Analyze the results of your practice exams and determine where you still need additional practice. Reread the chapters that you find challenging!

Tip: In the “Exam” module, you can view all your previous exams and which mistakes you made.

Handy: you instantly find out which chapter each mistake belongs to.

Day 6: Revision

Today is all about revision and self-confidence.

• Review your mistakes and focus on difficult subjects.

• Revise the theory.

• Take at least 2 complete exams under time pressure.

Day 7: The dress rehearsal

Use the last day to go over your notes and focus on the main points. Keep this day relatively calm; review the key points and ensure you have enough relaxation. A rested mind performs better on exam day.

Tip: Prepare your identity card in advance. A calm mind = better scores.
