Bodmin Test Centres and Pass Rates
Bodmin achieved a 46.1% pass rate with 5,561 tests taken between 2024 and 2025, slightly below the national average. Cornwall's market town presents narrow streets typical of medieval layouts, plus the added challenge of steep hills around the town centre and approaches to Bodmin Moor. Men slightly outperformed women at 47.3% versus 44.7%. The rural location means test routes often include challenging country lanes with passing places and livestock encounters, contributing to automatic drivers achieving 37.5%, well below manual transmission success rates.
