Bergamo around the national average

The figure for Bergamo, 60.21%, is close to the national 60.27%: the province is number 51 of 102, in a part of the table where a few tenths of a point separate one place from the next. In the table the province sits between Pesaro e Urbino (60.31%) and Genova (60.17%), a span of 0.14 points in all.

The figure rests on 19,789 theory tests sat in 2025, the 8th largest volume of the 102 provinces with a published figure and 2.15% of the 919,868 tests sat across Italy. Shifting the rate by one point would take about 198 different outcomes, a volume that makes the figure insensitive to single cases.

Against 2024 the rate rose by 0.66 points, from 59.55% to 60.21%, while the national figure changed by +0.04 points. The number of tests sat went from 19,618 to 19,789.

On the practical test the province ranks number 55 of the 102 with a published figure. Against 2024 the practical pass rate changed by +1.19 points, while the national one moved by −0.58 points.
