This was the case for me, I had to wait over 6 months after I turned 16 before I finally got my liscense, but my parents werent about to pay the several hundred bucks it would have costed to get it earlier, not through the school. But anyways, assuming you take the class in school and get a B- or better average in both the classroom and BTW portions of the class, you dont have to take either the BTW or Written tests that they would normally make you take in the place where you get your liscense. For me it was basically walk in, show them my papers, get my picture taken, walk out with my liscense.

Heh, this was exactly the same for me. It was so easy...The teacher in my school was pretty dumb, so even if you didn't study, cheating was simple (not that ya needed to...)
We had to do six different actual drives besides the written stuff, and it wasn't too bad. I probably screwed up enough to get me actually failed in a real test, but since it was done through school, it was easy to pass. I fancy myself an alright driver too despite not the same testing that most people get..
