FAQ

NWT Class 7 flashcards: questions

Where do these flashcards come from?

468 cards are points from our study notes, which we write from the official NWT Driver's Manual (Basic Handbook); the front names the rule and the back states it. The other 42 cards show a road sign drawing on the front and its meaning on the back, as in our road sign questions.

How should I use the flashcards?

Read the front, answer in your head, then flip. Choose "Got it" only if you knew it; otherwise choose "Review again". At the end, go through the "Review again" cards once more, or pick a single topic from the list to focus on it.

Is my progress saved?

Yes, on this device only. Cards marked "Review again" stay in the "Needs review" list, and every card you rate counts towards your topic map on the exam overview. Nothing is sent to us with your name; you can clear it from the overview page.

Are flashcards enough to pass the NWT Class 7 test?

No. Flashcards help you remember the rules, but the test asks multiple-choice questions. Use our practice tests and mock exams as well, and study the official material from Government of the Northwest Territories, Department of Infrastructure — Driver and Vehicle Services.
