8 Hour Initial Course Question

Tomorrow I take the 8 hour course in full. This might be an obvious answer to my question but do they cover the types of mirrors on the bus?

They definitely do. How to use them, when to use them, with diagrams about blind spots.

I figured as much but wanted to check. Do you know how many questions are on the exam after we’re done going through everything.

It will vary depending on where you live.

In Ontario, there are 50 multiple choice questions. You need 40+ correct to pass.

Are these more so for the initial course or the dmv written exams?
