# When should the code exam be carried out?

The code exam can only be scheduled/requested after having completed at least half of the mandatory practical classes, that is, 16 hours of practical/driving instruction, and the mandatory 28 hours of code.
After you have successfully completed the code exam, you can and should continue with practical instruction as soon as possible.
