About Rijschool Sowieso

From 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026, Rijschool Sowieso had 25 first practical tests for a car licence. There were 13 passes and 12 failures. The pass rate was 52%. Across the country, the pass rate was 48.8% from 203,403 first tests for the same type of test and dates. The school’s result is 3.2 percentage points above the national rate. There are few tests here. One different result would change the rate by about 4 percentage points.

Car tests

Look at the figures for the kind of car you want to drive. Of 25 first car tests, 20 were manual (80%) and 5 automatic (20%). Manual tests had 11 passes (55%), and automatic tests had 2 (40%). One different result changes the manual pass rate by 5 percentage points and the automatic rate by 20 percentage points. Read rates based on few tests with more care. Ask the school which lessons are available now; these past tests do not tell you that.

Lesson prices and packages

On 5 September 2026, the school listed a lesson package for a manual driving lesson from €1,560.00, with 20 lessons, 60 minutes per lesson. Check the current price and what is in the package. Read the conditions before you book.

About these figures

Car · B. Standard practical exams only.

The total can also include tests that CBR lists as combined. Manual and automatic tests may therefore not add up to the total. Without automatic test figures, we do not know whether the school offers automatic lessons now.

Pass rate over time

The chart shows first tests and retakes separately. Reporting years can overlap, so the same tests may appear at more than one point. With few tests, a single result can make a large difference.
