How to use the Tutor program:



What you want to do is to find out what questions you don't know the answers to.

What you do is to take every question. You can do this a little at a time; because the computer remembers which questions you have taken.

On questions you do not know the answer to:  Press the "End" key or click on
"Don't Know" to miss the question. You do not want to accidentally get a question right.

(If Illinois Driver's Tutor doesn't seem to work ; check to see if  you are in missed questions
mode. If you have not taken any questions on a topic; picking missed questions will not do anything.
If you are in missed questions mode; change back to straight or random questions.)

You choose missed questions for the computer to drill you in questions you have missed.

You take the sample test which represents what you would be given
in a real test. If you flunk the test you can then go thru every question you
have missed by choosing All Missed Q in TEST Menu box.
