Questions about a driving permit?

-I had a few questions about getting a permit. One of my friend's told me that once you get a permit, you have exactly one year to get your license. She said that you should wait like 2 weeks or something to get your permit, or else if you get it on your birthday, you have to get your license EXACTLY on your birthday. I hope that makes sense... is that true? Or can I get it on my birthday if I want and have as long as I need once I turn 16 to get my license?



Other than that, can anyone give me certain details about getting a permit? Like, as far as the tests, what to know, etc? Thanks!!no you don't have to get your license exactly on your birthday even if you do get your permit on your birthday. as for the tests, if you take the classes, they usually give you something to study for the tests. everything you need to know for the tests will be on what they give you.
