A step-by-step study plan to pass the RSA theory test at Dublin South (Dún Laoghaire). 40 questions, 35 to pass, 45 minutes. Here is exactly how to prepare.
Practise every main theory-test topic with AI explanations and take unlimited timed mocks. Use your results to target weak areas.
Practice all 8 broad study categories, take full 40-question mocks, and review every wrong answer. The official pass mark is 35 out of 40; scoring above it consistently in practice gives you a useful safety margin, but no practice result guarantees the official outcome.
The theory test is the same everywhere in Ireland: 40 multiple-choice questions, 45 minutes, and you need 35 correct (87.5%) to pass.
You may apply for a new Driver Theory Test after three days, pay another EUR 45, and take the next appointment you can get. L-Plate Premium includes a Pass Guarantee with 30 days free if you fail.
2-3 weeks of 20-30 minutes per day is ideal. Complete at least 3 full mock tests before your exam date.
