What to expect in New Mexico
Official 70% passing score
New Mexico MVD publishes a 70% passing score for the written test. The current audited sources do not publish the ordinary total, correct-answer count, time limit, answer-choice count, road-sign subtotal or separate sign minimum.
Official sourceOriginal TLA practice blueprint
This 30-question mock uses a 21-correct learning target by applying the published 70% threshold. Its eight-sign/22-rule split is a Trusted Local Auto study choice, not an official New Mexico section quota.
Official sourceSource and review method: question content is stored with its source metadata and remains outside public practice until it is published. Official-format facts on this page were reviewed on 2026-08-15 against New Mexico Driver Manual and the linked licensing authority pages.
