Frequently asked questions about theory practice

Can I practise Dutch CBR theory for free with Theorio?

Yes. You start for free with 120 practice questions and 1 complete CBR mock exam. No credit card needed. You immediately feel how Theorio works: short explanations, interactive questions and a dashboard that shows which topics you already master.

Is Theorio up to date for the 2026 CBR theory exam?

Yes. Our practice material matches the new 50-question CBR format for driving licence B, including hazard perception and realistic animated traffic situations. You are not practising outdated textbook material, but questions that feel like the current exam.

Why does this work better than a theory book?

A theory book mostly makes you read. Theorio makes you practise. The algorithm remembers which traffic rules, signs and priority situations you find difficult and repeats them at the right moment. You learn with more focus, stay motivated and keep seeing your real-time pass probability.

How do I know when I am ready for the CBR?

You do not have to guess. In the app you see your progress per topic and your real-time pass probability. Keep practising until your weak spots are gone and your pass probability is above 90%. That way you go to the exam with control, not stress.

Which package should I choose for my exam date?

Starting weeks in advance? Choose Intro: 90 days of access, 700+ practice questions, videos, smart repetition and real-time pass probability. Is your exam coming up soon? Choose Turbo: 21 days of focus with 35 CBR practice exams, all explanations and the same personalised repetition.

What if I still fail my theory exam?

Then we help you get back on track. Theorio has a conditional money-back guarantee: if you practised seriously and meet the guarantee requirements, you get your CBR exam fee back and renewed access to Theorio. The focus stays on passing, not paying again.

Why does a shorter access period sometimes cost more?

If your exam is still 30+ days away, practising mock exams now makes little sense — you'll have forgotten everything by exam day. Intro gives you 90 days to build up the theory at a relaxed pace. Got your exam in 2-3 weeks? Then Turbo (21 days) is your move for intensive CBR simulation practice. The total investment is comparable — the approach just differs.

How many mistakes can you make on the CBR theory exam?

You can make a maximum of 6 mistakes on 50 questions in the CBR theory exam. Make 7 or more and you'll need to wait at least 10 weeks before retaking it — paying the €50.50 fee again. Theorio simulates this exactly: our mock exams have 50 questions with the same time limit and scoring as the real CBR.

Can I learn the theory in 1 day?

Yes — but you need to be smart about it. With Theorio's Nitro Mode you follow a complete Pomodoro schedule over 24 hours, from 8am to 10pm. You automatically get a study plan with focus and review blocks, plus three mock exams at the end of the day. On average, Nitro users master all the material in 8 intensive study hours.

How do you pass the theory exam easily?

Three proven steps: 1) Practise via Theorio's Spaced Repetition system so difficult questions automatically come back more often, 2) complete at least 5 CBR mock exams to get comfortable with the question style and time pressure, and 3) only head to the CBR when your pass probability in the app is above 90%. That meter is based on your actual performance — not guesswork.
