Northumberland Test Centres and Pass Rates
Northumberland's centres are a strong bunch, and none of them falls below the 50% national average. Duns leads with 70%, good enough to rank in the top 5% of 303 centres across the country. Even Berwick-On-Tweed, the lowest at 54%, comes in above average. Waits run long everywhere, from about 5 months at Duns to about 5½ months at Kelso, so there's little to gain by shopping around for an earlier date. For automatic tests, Kelso does best with 46%, close to the national automatic pass rate of 45%.
