What score do I need to pass?

You need at least 15 of 20 questions correct (75%).

How much does the Texas test cost?

Add motorcycle to an existing license: $16. New driver license with motorcycle: $48. Standalone Class M: $33.

Are these the actual test questions?

No. These are original practice questions written from the same public handbook the real test covers. They are designed to teach the material, not to reproduce the exam.
