Can I Go Back to Change Answers in Subject One Exam?
2 Answers
No. There are 100 questions to be answered in sequence. Each question allows only one attempt, and the result is displayed immediately after answering. You cannot skip questions. The exam will be terminated if you accumulate 11 incorrect answers. However, you can change your answer if you have selected an option but not confirmed it yet. Additional Information: The total duration of the Subject One exam is 45 minutes. The test consists of 100 questions, including true/false and multiple-choice questions, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. The exam questions 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". The Subject One exam offers two attempts. If you fail the first attempt, you can immediately take the second attempt (i.e., a make-up exam). Passing the second attempt means you have officially passed Subject One. If you still fail the make-up exam, the exam is considered a failure, and you need to reschedule the exam. For candidates who fail both attempts, the driving school will schedule a new exam. The waiting time depends on the number of local driving school applicants, usually ranging from about half a month to a month. The first make-up exam is free, while subsequent make-up exams mainly involve fees from the vehicle management office and theoretical training fees from the driving school. The make-up exam fee is generally not high, but the standards vary by region. For specific details, please consult the driving school you registered with.
I remember being extremely nervous during my first attempt at the Subject 1 test. When I reached question 20, I realized I had made a mistake on a previous question, only to find out there was no way to go back and change it. The exam system is designed to proceed question by question, locking the answer once you click 'next.' Later, my instructor explained that this is to prevent candidates from overthinking and disrupting the exam flow. Now, every time I take the test, I remind myself to mark uncertain questions first. During the review phase, I can revisit marked questions, but once other questions are submitted, there’s no chance to modify them. Developing this habit has actually improved my test efficiency. After all, you only need 90 points to pass Subject 1, so for questions I’m unsure about, I rely on my first instinct.
