Wales Test Centres and Pass Rates
The three centres in this part of Wales are closely matched. Bridgend leads with a pass rate of 53%, and even Swansea, the lowest at 48%, isn't far off the 50% national average. Waits are about 1½ months across the board, which leaves you free to choose the centre whose roads you know. Llanelli has the best automatic pass rate here at 43%, though that's still a little under Britain's average automatic pass rate of 45%.
