Cornwall Test Centres and Pass Rates
Penzance is the stronger of Cornwall's two centres, with a pass rate of 47%, a little under Britain's average pass rate of 50%. Camborne has a pass rate of 41%, which places it among the weakest tenth of the 303 centres in Britain. Its automatic pass rate drops to 30%, well short of the national automatic pass rate of 45%. Penzance has the best automatic pass rate nearby at 38%, though that's still below the national figure. What Camborne does offer is a typical wait of about a month, against about 2½ months at Penzance. If you're learning around Camborne, those are the roads you know, and that counts for something. If Penzance is just as easy for you to get to, though, its better record could be worth the longer wait.
