Can I make an appointment immediately after canceling Subject 1?

After canceling the appointment for Subject 1, you can immediately make another appointment. Each student has three opportunities to cancel appointments for each subject, so canceling in advance is a legitimate and reasonable operation and will not affect subsequent exam appointments. The content of the Subject 1 exam includes basic knowledge of motor vehicles; laws, regulations, and road traffic signals; basic knowledge of safe driving and civilized driving; and basic knowledge related to motor vehicle driving operations. The process for the Subject 1 exam is as follows: First, follow the staff's arrangements to receive your driving training file in order in the waiting area; carry and present your ID card for inspection by the supervising officer. Note that mobile phones must be turned off when entering the exam area, no loud noise is allowed, and law textbooks are not permitted in the exam area (or must be kept in your 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. Students who pass the exam will sign under the guidance of the staff at the exit before leaving the exam room. Students who fail the exam can leave the exam room immediately and wait for notification from their driving school staff about the retake time.
After canceling my Subject 1 test, I tried to immediately reschedule but couldn't. The system prompted that I had to wait until the next day to reapply. This is completely normal—it prevents people from maliciously hogging appointment slots and ensures fairness. I encountered a similar situation when getting my driver's license. My advice is not to rush; just wait patiently for one day before selecting a new time slot. In practice, I logged into the driving school's app to check the rules, which clearly stated a 24-hour cooldown period. The key is to prepare study materials in advance to avoid wasting time with further cancellations. If you cancel an exam, don't panic—proper time management is the right approach.
I've been learning to drive for less than a month. After canceling my Subject 1 test, I immediately wanted to reschedule, but found it wasn't possible—I had to wait a day or two. My instructor later explained it's a DMV regulation, a cooling-off period for system recovery. From my own experience, I canceled my first test due to nervousness and successfully rescheduled the next day. I recommend beginners download the official driving test app to monitor available slots in real-time, otherwise missing opportunities becomes more troublesome. These small incidents during driving lessons help us better manage our time.
