Do You See the Correct Answers After Failing the New Jersey Defensive Driving Course (DDC) Final Exam

Yes. After each proficiency exam attempt in the New Jersey Defensive Driving Course (DDC) from Driving Logic, the system displays the correct and incorrect answers for every question presented, along with an explanation for each. This applies whether the attempt was passed or failed.

What You See After Submitting the Exam

Immediately after completing a proficiency exam attempt, students receive:

  • A score showing how many questions were answered correctly

  • An indication of whether the attempt was passed or failed

  • The correct answer for every question on that attempt

  • An explanation of why each correct answer is right

This review is available after every attempt, not just failed ones.

How to Use the Review to Prepare for a Retake

Because correct answers and explanations are shown after each attempt, students who did not pass can:

  • Review every question from their attempt

  • Identify which topics they answered incorrectly

  • Focus their review on those specific areas before retaking

  • Return to the relevant course modules for additional study

Exam Retakes

Students who do not achieve the required 80% passing score on their first attempt may retake the proficiency exam up to two additional times, for a total of three attempts. A mandatory course review period is required between attempts.

Each exam attempt draws a new set of 40 questions randomly selected from the full 120-question bank, so the questions may differ between attempts.

After Passing the Exam

Once a passing score of 80% or higher is achieved:

  • A completion certificate is generated and available for download

  • Driving Logic submits completion records to the New Jersey MVC

  • Administrative processing timelines vary
