Are the questions in Subject 1 exam fixed?
2 Answers
Subject 1 exam questions are not fixed. The total duration of the Subject 1 exam is 45 minutes. The test paper consists of 100 questions, including true/false questions and multiple-choice questions, with a full score of 100 points. The test paper is randomly selected and combined by the computer driver examination system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Regulations". Since July 2015, the Ministry of Public Security has updated the Subject 1 question bank to 1229 questions, while the question bank for large vehicles remains unchanged. Subject 1 exam content (outline): Road traffic safety laws, regulations, and rules: Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China and its implementation regulations, Criminal Law, Procedures for Handling Road Traffic Safety Violations, Procedures for Handling Road Traffic Accidents, Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses, Regulations on Motor Vehicle Registration. Local regulations: Key content is selected based on local regulations. Traffic signals: Road traffic lights, road traffic signs, road traffic markings, traffic police hand signals. Basic knowledge of safe driving and civilized driving: Driving behavior, traffic safety violations. Basic knowledge related to motor vehicle driving operations: Instruments and indicators, control devices, safety devices.
I just finished the subject one test, and the fixed question bank was a huge help. The questions mainly come from the official standard question bank of about 1,600 questions, with 100 randomly selected for each test. I went through all the questions three times on the "Driving Test Treasure" app, and 90% of the questions I encountered in the exam looked familiar, even though the order of the options changed, the content was exactly the same. However, it's important to note that the question bank is updated regularly, for example, last year some new questions on electric vehicle regulations were added, so it's advisable to confirm that the app's question bank version is the latest two weeks before the exam. Understanding the traffic rules behind each question is more important than rote memorization, so even if you encounter slightly modified questions, you can answer them correctly. Spending two weeks reviewing for two hours a day makes the preparation more solid thanks to the fixed question bank.
