Maryland's threshold is stricter.
10 — a 60% passing threshold.
No state has a 60% passing threshold.
Maryland has the highest passing threshold of any US state driver exam: 88%, meaning only 3 mistakes are allowed out of 25 questions. This is significantly stricter than the 80% that 35+ other states use. Practice tests should be passed at 95%+ before attempting the real exam.
