Grimsby Test Centres and Pass Rates

Farnborough leads with 58.3% among Guildford's 3 centres, with Chertsey at 50.3% and Guildford itself at 51.8%, totalling 21,742 tests from 2024 to 2025. Surrey's challenging terrain includes A3 dual carriageway work, narrow lanes through the Surrey Hills, and busy town centres like Guildford's one-way system that tests confidence and positioning. Men outperformed women at Farnborough (60.8% versus 55.6%) but the gap was minimal at Chertsey (50.2% versus 50.4%). Automatic pass rates reached 52.9% at Farnborough, suggesting the quieter test routes around the Hampshire border suit learners who can focus purely on road positioning and hazard awareness.
