Are the Questions in Subject 1 and Subject 4 the Same?
1 Answers
The questions in Subject 1 and Subject 4 are different. The main differences between Subject 1 and Subject 4 include: the number of questions, types of questions, proportion of exam content, and exam focus. The information is based on the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses". Number of Questions: The most obvious difference between Subject 1 and Subject 4 is the number of questions. Subject 1 has 100 questions, while Subject 4 only has 50 questions. In Subject 1, the exam will automatically submit if more than 10 questions are answered incorrectly, whereas in Subject 4, the exam will automatically submit if more than 6 questions are answered incorrectly. Types of Questions: Subject 1 consists of 100 questions, each worth 1 point, with a total exam time of 45 minutes. The question types are true/false and single-choice questions, with a full score of 100 points. Subject 4 consists of 50 questions, each worth 2 points, with an exam time of 45 minutes. The questions are mainly presented in the form of case studies, images, animations, etc., and the question types include true/false, single-choice, and multiple-choice questions, with a full score of 100 points. Exam Focus: Subject 1 primarily tests basic knowledge of road driving, while Subject 4 focuses on safe and civilized driving knowledge. It can be understood this way: Subject 1 tests how to drive, while Subject 4 tests how to drive safely. Although the difference is just two words ("safe driving"), the focus is completely different. Proportion of Exam Content: Subject 1 exam content consists of: 20% on driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; 25% on road traffic conditions and regulations; 25% on road traffic safety violations and penalties; 10% on road traffic accident handling regulations; 10% on basic motor vehicle knowledge; and 10% on local regulations. Subject 4 exam content consists of: 20% on safe driving knowledge; 18% on civilized driving knowledge; 8% on the comprehensive application of road traffic signals in traffic scenarios; 16% on safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions; 12% on emergency avoidance knowledge; 6% on typical accident case analysis; 10% on traffic accident rescue and common hazardous chemical handling knowledge; and 10% on local questions. There is no limit to the number of attempts for Subject 1 and Subject 4 in the driving test. If the exam is failed, it can be rescheduled. Each scheduled exam has two attempts. If both attempts are failed, the candidate must retake the exam until they pass. Both Subject 1 and Subject 4 are theoretical exams and are part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The driving test consists of 3 subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the exam on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills exam; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge. The safe and civilized driving knowledge exam is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, in official terms (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123), there is no mention of Subject 4.
