Are the questions for Subject 1 standardized nationwide?
2 Answers
Subject 1 questions are standardized nationwide. The question types for Subject 1 include true/false questions and single-choice questions. The exam papers are randomly selected and combined by the computer driver examination system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Regulations". Subject 1 exam content: Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; laws, regulations, and road traffic signals; basic knowledge of safe driving and civilized driving; basic knowledge related to motor vehicle driving operations. Subject 1 exam process: Follow the instructions of the staff and receive your driving training file in order in the waiting area; Carry and present your ID card for verification by the supervising officer; Mobile phones must be turned off when entering the exam area; No loud noise is allowed in the exam area; Regulation textbooks are not allowed in the exam area (or must be kept in a bag); After the exam, keep your ID card safe and submit the file to the "Document Submission Window" at the front of the exam room; Candidates who pass the exam will sign under the guidance of the staff at the exit and then leave the exam room; Candidates who fail the exam can leave the exam room immediately and wait for the driving school staff to notify them of the retake time.
I can relate to this issue as I just got my driver's license last year. The question bank for Subject 1 is indeed standardized nationwide, with all questions formulated by the Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security. The theoretical test questions you encounter in Guangzhou are exactly the same as those in Harbin. However, note that the question bank is periodically updated—for instance, new questions on safe and civilized driving were added this March. During the exam, the system randomly selects 100 questions from a pool of over 1,700. Interestingly, the question bank also includes local regulations from various provinces and cities, though these make up a very small portion and hardly affect the overall difficulty. I recommend practicing with an authoritative driving test app.
