Can You Pass the Subject One Test by Cramming All Night?
2 Answers
Whether you can pass the Subject One test by studying all night depends on individual luck. The risk of doing so is relatively high. If you want to be more certain of passing the exam, you should spend more time practicing the questions for Subject One. Exam Content: The exam covers knowledge of road traffic safety laws and regulations, basic knowledge about motor vehicles, the application and use of motor vehicle driving licenses, relevant regulations on motor vehicle registration, and some local road traffic safety laws, regulations, and rules. It is a theoretical test. Passing Criteria: The full score is 100 points. The Subject One test consists of 100 questions, with each question worth one point. If you score 90 points, you will be considered to have passed the exam and can choose to leave the examination room or continue. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly, you will fail the exam immediately.
Last time before taking the Theory Test (Subject 1), I also tried cramming all night, but almost failed. Staying up late turned my brain into mush—many questions looked familiar but I messed up all the details. The Subject 1 question bank has over a thousand questions, and the random selection feature is especially tricky. I forced myself to grind through 500+ questions at 3 AM, only to find 20+ completely unfamiliar ones on the exam the next day. The most frustrating part? I’d just reviewed the speed limit questions the day before, but during the test, I mixed up 30 km/h for urban roads as 40 km/h and lost points. My advice: start at least a week early, practice 2 hours daily with mock tests—it’s three times more effective than last-minute cramming. Mental composure matters too; use apps like ‘Driving Test Pro’ and only attempt the real exam after scoring above 95 three times in a row.
