Driving test

Looking at the pie charts

Just looking at the second pie chart, Rayfield had the most passes - more than a quarter of all passes.

However, if you look at the first pie chart, you can see that a lot of people took their test at Rayfield (around a quarter), so you would expect a lot of people to pass.

What we are interested in is the number of people who passed relative to the number of people who took their test there - so the centre where the wedge on the second pie chart is largest relative to its wedge on the first pie chart - which is Mallick.

Working out the pass rates

Using the numbers from the pie charts, we can find the pass rates for each centre.

This is the percentage of tests which were passed:

Test Centre	Tests Passed	Tests Taken	Pass Rate
Maidland	2327	5289	44%
Rayfield	2582	4872	53%
Chadstead	1289	4028	32%
Dorberton	1660	2677	62%
Mallick	1060	1341	79%

We can see that Mallick has the highest pass rate.
