What's the pass mark for passing the theory ?
Also, if someone passes the theory but fails the practical, would they need to redo the theory again aswell as the practical ?
Is it ok to learn on an automatic ? Are automatics good in general ?

The car and motorcycle multiple-choice part lasts for 57 minutes and the pass mark is 43 out of 50.
The hazard perception pass mark for cars and motorcycles is 44 out of 75.
Your theory test pass certificate lasts for 2 years after taking your test. If you haven’t passed your practical test by then, you’ll need to take and pass the theory test again.
A practical test pass in an automatic car limits you to driving automatics only. Learning in an automatic before taking the manual test is nonsensical.

There are two parts to the theory test, you must pass both parts in order to pass the exam as a whole, the pass mark for the first part (multiple choice) is 43 out of 50. The second part is hazard perception and the pass mark is 44 out of 75
If you pass the theory and then fail the practical, you do not need to retake the theory test providing it is still valid (it lasts for 2 years) otherwise you would then need to resit the theory.

There are advantages to both types of gearbox.
Neither is 'better' than the other. If you only need a car for general driving then an auto is fine and a definite advantage if most of your driving will be done in town.
You may have to bear a slightly higher fuel consumption. Because they are seen to be 'sensible' a second hand auto is often a good buy as it is unlikely to have been driven by a 'boy racer.'

You should learn and pass on a manual. Having only driven , and only having a licence for, an automatic is very restricting. Your friends will have manual cars, so you can't borrow a car from, or be a driver for, them, you will find hire cars are manual, and the number of cars you can buy which are automatic, new or second hand, is small compared to the number of manual ones.
Really ,learning to use a manual box is easy. That isn't the problem when you are a learner and are tested. Your problem will be roadcraft, reading the road, anticipating what other road users will do, and being aware of hazards in practice, rather than in theory.
