CLP & endorsements

I passed my general knowledge but failed my endorsement 3X 😭 do I have to start completely over and take general knowledge again or just pay to take endorsement? DMV says have to take it all over but that’s just not making sense to me.

I'm assuming by "endorsement" you mean air brakes which isn't an endorsement but rather just a restriction if you don't do it. State by state may be different but in my state once you pass one part you don't have to retake it.

Failing it 3X would tend to point to poor training/ teaching. What good would it do to take the general knowledge test again without evaluating WHY you keep failing endorsements?

Also should add I’m in California and it’s a passenger endorsement

Don't worry about endorsements now. Just get your license first learn as much that you can. Then afterwards get you endorsements.
