Dartford Test Centres and Pass Rates
With 10 centres near Dartford, the best and worst are a long way apart. Sidcup leads with a pass rate of 59%, well above the national pass rate of 50%, and its automatic pass rate of 57% is the best nearby, against a national automatic pass rate of 45%. It also has the longest wait, about 5½ months. At the other end, Barking (36%) and Belvedere (41%) are both in the bottom 5% of centres nationwide, even though Belvedere can usually fit you in within about a month. Plenty of centres here fall between those extremes, and if you learn near one of them, staying on roads you know may serve you better than chasing Sidcup.
