Not sure how Salem works but In Manchester u gotta take your written test first, pass, then u schedule your driving test. Usually a week after passing your computerized multiple choice test. Driving instructor will have a set route they take, your drivers Ed teacher usually will know it or should and have u practice during your driving time, Try not to do early morning during rush hour or later in the day rush hour when ever one wants to get home. Coming from a parent of 3 current pot hole drivers. Lol. Good luck.
