Practical Test Centres Near Kilburn

Kilburn learners typically book their practical at Hendon, around three miles north-east, which posts a pass rate slightly below the national average. Test routes often include stretches of the A41 and residential roads around Cricklewood and Golders Green, so expect your final lessons to cover those junctions and urban dual carriageways in detail.

Mill Hill is the second nearest at around four miles north-east and runs at a similar pass rate to Hendon, making it a useful backup when slots are limited. Southall sits roughly four miles south-west and sees comparable pass rates, so the choice between these three centres often comes down to which has the earliest available date rather than meaningful differences in difficulty.
