Give the difficulty a name
After reading an explanation, pause before moving on. Decide whether you missed a rule, misunderstood the wording, overlooked an image detail or chose without a clear reason. Keep the category simple enough to use again.
Include correct answers you were unsure about. They can deserve review too. Record your own reasoning before copying anything from the explanation, so you can see exactly where it differed.
Write a note that tells you what to do next
Keep a personal notebook or document beside your practice. Each entry can have four parts: the question reference, the cause of the difficulty, your corrected explanation and a next action. This note-taking method is separate from the app’s saved-question controls.
- Keep the cause specific.
- Explain the correction in your own words.
- Choose one action you can complete in a later session.
Group notes by the topic you need to study
Use the official Category B topic list as a reference for organising your notes. Put related difficulties together so you can plan a focused session rather than jump between unrelated questions.
A topic with several notes deserves a closer look. Read the relevant official material, then return to practice. If a note only says “careless”, rewrite it to identify what you missed and how you will check it next time.
Revisit the answer, then try a new situation
Use My mistakes and Favorites in DrivingNorway to find questions again. Before opening the explanation, state the task, identify the important detail and explain your choice. Then compare with the feedback.
When that explanation becomes clear, try a different question on the same topic. This helps you distinguish understanding the topic from recognising one question. Keep difficult notes active until you can explain the reasoning through another example.
End the session with one priority
Choose the note that would make the next session most useful. A specific goal such as “inspect all panels in a sign image” or “read the question’s condition before choosing” is easier to follow than “make fewer mistakes”.
Review your notebook periodically. Mark notes as understood when you can explain them again, and return unresolved rules to the official source. Let the notes guide your study plan without turning the list into another score to worry about.
