Practicing for 7 days before taking the Subject 2 test is generally not enough to pass, as Subject 2 focuses more on practical operations. Seven days of practice is usually only sufficient to grasp the basic driving process and the test procedure. More time is needed to master the skills required to pass the test. Subject 2 Test Items: For small vehicles (C1 and C2), the test items include five mandatory components: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves. Requirements for Subject 2: Candidates must master the basic driving operations and possess fundamental vehicle control abilities. They should be proficient in basic methods of driving on the test site and internal roads, capable of properly using vehicle controls and accurately managing the vehicle's spatial position. Additionally, they must be able to precisely control the vehicle's position, speed, and route.

When I first started learning to drive, my coach arranged for me to practice for the second subject for 7 days before taking the test. As a result, I failed the test and had to retake it. The length of practice time is not the key, but the quality of practice. I practiced for two hours every day for those 7 days, but I kept making mistakes in reversing into the garage, couldn't remember the reference points, and turned the steering wheel too early, causing the car to cross the line. It is recommended that beginners practice more actual operations instead of just watching tutorials; find a good coach to guide you throughout the process; and review mistakes every day. The second subject emphasizes car feel and spatial awareness. It may take 7 days to get started, but to pass stably, you need to practice continuously for at least 10 days or more. Don't rush, safety first.

As a seasoned driving instructor with years of experience training students, I've witnessed many cases where learners passed Subject 2 within just 7 days. However, this largely depends on individual aptitude: some with better coordination master reverse parking in just three days of practice, while others who are less dexterous might need two weeks. The key lies in maintaining high-intensity daily practice. I recommend simulating exam conditions frequently during training, maintaining steady clutch control, and avoiding nervous mistakes. Subject 2 maneuvers like parallel parking test your sense of rhythm – 7 days is sufficient for some to pass, but don't force it.

Looking back on my experience of getting a driver's license, I practiced for 9 days before taking the Subject 2 test, as 7 days would have been too rushed. On the exam day, it rained and I failed because I didn't control the clutch well while reversing. Practice isn't just about the number of days; it's also about the actual proficiency of your movements. I recommend that beginners spend more time practicing steering wheel angles and mirror-checking techniques. The foundation of safe driving is the most important thing.
