The theory test crisis in numbers
The data from Spain's Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT) is alarming: almost half of Permiso B applicants fail the theory test. And most surprisingly, this failure rate of approximately 50% has remained constant for the past 20 years, according to DGT records.
Official 2024 statistics
49% (up from 47% in 2023)
Failed the theory test in 2024
€94 for each additional attempt
Each failure not only represents a significant financial cost, but also frustration, lost time, and delay in achieving an important goal for personal and professional life.
Why do so many students fail?
After analyzing the market and speaking with students, we identified the main causes:
Most traditional platforms work the same as 20 years ago: a bank of random questions without personalization. They don't identify your weak points or adapt content to your level.
Studying for the theory test can be tedious. Without elements to maintain motivation (like streaks, achievements, or competition), many students give up before being ready.
On many platforms, the digital book goes one way, tests another, and explanations are superficial. All this with additional costs that add up.
When you fail a question, do you receive a clear explanation of why? Does the system remember that you failed and ask you again later? Most platforms don't.
What traditional platforms offer vs. what you need
Let's see the direct comparison:
| Feature | Traditional platforms |
|
|---|---|---|
| +2000 theory questions | ✓ | ✓ |
| Topic-based tests | — | ✓ |
| Error review tests | — | ✓ |
| Adaptive AI learning | ✗ | ✓ |
| Interactive games | ✗ | ✓ |
| Digital book included | Separate (€10+) | ✓ |
| Gamification (streaks & badges) | ✗ | ✓ |
| Prizes & competitions | ✗ | ✓ |
| English version | ✗ | ✓ |
| Affordable pricing | ✗ | View pricing |
The solution: adaptive learning and gamification
To change these statistics, a completely different approach is needed:
The system identifies which topics you master and which you need to reinforce, automatically adjusting content to maximize your study time.
Daily streaks, XP points, badges, weekly rankings... Elements that transform study into something addictive and effective.
Digital book, tests, simulations, detailed explanations... All in one place, with transparent pricing.
Conclusion: don't be part of the 49%
The 49% failure statistic is not inevitable. With the right tools and a modern approach, you can prepare more effectively, faster, and more enjoyably.
The question is: are you going to keep using methods that don't work, or will you try something different?
