Leicestershire Test Centres and Pass Rates
Leicestershire has the widest spread you'll see. Melton Mowbray has a pass rate of 70%, putting it in the top 5% of centres in Britain and far above the national figure of 50%, and its automatic pass rate of 63% is the best around. It also has the longest wait, about 4½ months, against about a month at Nottingham Chilwell. Coventry and Leicester Cannock Street, both on 40%, are among the weakest 5% in the country, with Loughborough on 42% in the bottom tenth. A trip to Melton only makes sense if you can get to know its roads first.
