The sample of theory test is consisted of 25 slides (pictures) including different traffic situations. Each slide includes general question regarding certain traffic situation and it is then followed by 4 multiple-choice answers. In order to pass the test at least 20 slides (pictures) must be answered correctly.
Before the test is taken we recommend that students get extra theory classes and take number of evaluative tests in driving school. Our experience have shown that students are ready for the theory test if they in at least 5 last evaluative tests make under 3 mistakes.
The theory test is taken at one of the police premises, usually at Toftegaardsplads, Valby.
The theory tests are also offered in other police premises around Copenhagen area.
When attending the theory test the students must remember passport, lesson plan, application of license and any previously issued driving license. It is recommended that students arrive at theory test in good time. In the case of being late the police is allow to reject the students presence at examination forcing them to order a new test (cost of additional 580, - kr.).
Theory examination with digital platform - new
All the applicants that choose to take theory test at Hillerød Police Station will from 1stof February 2010 be able to take the test on new digital platform. It is all up to applicant whether he takes the theory test in Hillerød with new digital system or if he takes the test in “old way”.
In connection with driving license application, the National Police has developed a new digital system for theory examination. The overall objective to modernize and digitize system is to support improvements in road safety by improving the quality of theory test (form, content and implementation).
The new digital theory test will be tested in Hillerød Police Station, district Nordsjælland. The theory test is further developed in first quarter of 2010 and will also be implemented at Køge Station, district Midt- and Vestsjællands.
How do you take digital theory test?
The digital theory test must be taken in special rooms that are purposely equipped with number of test terminals (computers). Once applicant arrives to the test, the police supervisor records his arrival, and test terminal (computer) is immediately assigned. After this the examination can start. The applicant can complete the test – typically consisting of 25 questions with up to 4 possible answers – in his own pace within 25 minutes. The applicant is able to follow the questions on screen. All the questions and answers are shown as text and images. The text on the screen is heard through headphones.
After the applicant has completed theory test the supervisor who will provide a rating scale with the outcome (results).

Is there a difference between the present and in the digital theory test?
Throughout the testing phase the theory test will be based on the same theory test series used at all the other examination locations. When digital system is fully implemented at all the examination locations, the current standard theory test series will be superseded by the theory test based on random selection of questions.
How do you take the theory test if you cannot speak and understand Danish?
Theory test applicants that do not speak or understand Danish will as before have an interpreter present at examination.
How do you register for theory test?
Any person obtaining driving license must be approved by municipality (kommunen). Once approved you then get registered via internet-based driving booking system (Køreprøvebookingsystem). Now theory test can be booked. Benefits vs. Downside of digital theory test
The main benefit of the digital theory test is that you can easily correct all the questions. You will also have opportunity to hear and see text on computer. To those that have difficulties to understand Danish this is great help.
On the other hand the time is also considered to be main downside. If the applicant has too much time to answer the questions there is a great risk of applicant going through the questions where the answers were doubtful and re-correct the answers again. In practise, the experience have shown that the in most cases the first given answer to doubtful question is most likely to be the right one.
