Can I pass the subject 4 exam by only studying 500 questions?

You can pass the subject 4 exam by only studying 500 questions, as long as you review them carefully. Below is an introduction to the driver's license test: Driver's License Test: The driver's license test generally refers to the driver's examination (a qualification test organized by the Vehicle Management Office of the Public Security Bureau). The driver's examination (motor vehicle driver's test) is a qualification test conducted by the Vehicle Management Office of the Public Security Bureau. Only by passing the driver's examination can one obtain a driver's license and legally operate a motor vehicle. Test Process: Applicants for a motor vehicle driver's license must pass the following four subjects: the subject on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge (Subject 1), the subject on field driving skills (Subject 2), the subject on road driving skills (Subject 3), and the subject on safe and civilized driving knowledge (Subject 4). The test sequence follows Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3, and Subject 3 theory (i.e., Subject 4, as there is no official term "Subject 4"). Only after passing the previous subject can one proceed to the next subject.
I've observed many students preparing for the Subject 4 exam, and quite a few rely solely on practicing around 500 questions to pass. From experience, this approach can indeed help you pass—for instance, some apps' 500-question sets cover high-frequency test points, and memorizing them allows for quick answering with few issues during the exam. However, I don’t fully recommend relying on this method alone. The exam question bank updates frequently, and the randomness of questions means that just drilling through questions can lead to overlooking some fundamental safety knowledge. As an instructor, I’ve seen students struggle with true/false questions and emergency scenario questions because the 500-question set might not be comprehensive enough. I suggest combining practice with studying traffic rule books to understand the principles and doing a few full mock exams before the test to minimize mistakes. In short, while it’s possible to pass this way, for a more secure outcome, broader preparation never hurts.
When I took the Subject 4 test, I just used a 500-question APP for practice, and it worked really well—I passed smoothly. Those questions mainly covered common traffic signs and rules, basically hitting all the key points of the exam. Once you memorize them, answering becomes quite easy. However, I think the key is to practice repeatedly, especially for sections like night driving and safe distances—there are many questions, but the core content is consistent. When using the APP, don’t just memorize the answers; try simulating real driving scenarios in your mind to reinforce your memory. One thing to note: stay relaxed during the exam—don’t overstress. I’ve seen friends who relied solely on rote memorization end up making mistakes. Overall, 500 questions are enough, but spending some extra time practicing a few more sets of questions is safer.
