So I'm kind of embarrassed to admit this, but I failed the NH DMV knowledge test two times before I finally passed last week. The first time I figured I could just wing it after skimming the driver's manual for an hour. Big mistake. Second time I studied harder but kept getting tripped up on the right-of-way rules and those road sign questions.
What actually turned the corner for me was using a proper NH DMV practice test that simulates the real exam format. I'd been reading the manual passively but never actually testing myself. Once I started doing timed practice runs and tracking which sections I kept missing, everything clicked. Spent about 4-5 hours spread across three days doing that instead of just rereading.
For anyone else struggling — the alcohol/drug laws section and the specific speed limits in school/work zones were way more heavily tested than I expected. Don't sleep on those. Happy to share more of what worked if anyone's prepping right now.
