According to regulations, you can schedule up to 3 sessions for the Subject 1 exam simultaneously, but only one session will be successfully booked. The actual booked session depends on whether your ranking in the scheduled sessions exceeds the corresponding exam quota. Generally, the higher your ranking, the greater the chance of successful booking. The inability to book Subject 1 is mainly due to the high number of local applicants and a relatively low personal ranking. There is essentially no way to change this situation, as the driving test scheduling follows ranking rules, and those whose test validity period is about to expire will be prioritized. To increase the chances of successful booking, it's best to choose sessions where your ranking is relatively high. The driving test ranking is not fixed and may change as the number of applicants increases. The higher your ranking, the lower the chance of being pushed out of the exam quota for that session. Additionally, you can schedule up to 3 exam sessions at a time, and it's advisable to maximize each attempt. Even if one session fails, you still have two more chances. If booking is still unsuccessful, you may consider switching to another test center, opting for a more remote or less crowded location, which significantly improves the chances of success. However, driving schools often have rules about which test centers students can book, so candidates should discuss this with their instructors beforehand.

I totally understand this issue because I just took the subject one test recently. The exam system only allows you to book one test session at a time, and if you fail, you have to wait ten days before you can schedule the next attempt. I recommend practicing mock tests before booking the exam—if you consistently score above 90 in several attempts, then go ahead and schedule the test, as your chances of passing will be higher. Also, don’t believe the rumors online about booking multiple test centers at once. Each person can only select one time slot at one test center per booking, and the system will prioritize appointments based on the booking time and your last exam date. If you’re in a hurry to take the test, try choosing less popular test centers with fewer applicants, as your chances of success will be higher. But the most important thing is to review thoroughly—if you haven’t mastered the knowledge points, booking more test sessions won’t help.

I often hear friends who are learning to drive complain about the difficulty of booking the Subject 1 test. Indeed, the rule is that each person can only book one test session at a time. You can check the test slot release schedule in advance on the Traffic 12123 App, as new test slots are typically released in batches every week. Remember to prepare your test registration materials ahead of time. If you fail the test, you must wait 10 days before you can book again, so don't expect to retake it immediately after failing. I recommend avoiding peak months when booking, such as summer and winter vacations when many students are trying to book, making it harder to secure a slot. Also, after booking, remember to keep an eye on the test notification so you don't miss the exam time. If you're in a hurry, you can consult your driving school, as they may have internal channels to help you get priority booking.

I have personally experienced the rules of the Subject 1 test. The system only allows you to book one test session at a time, and if you fail, you have to queue again. When booking, pay attention to the test center selection—prioritize locations with convenient transportation, or you'll have a tough time getting there on exam day. I advise everyone not to trust third-party booking services; they are all scams. The most reliable method is to log in early and grab a spot—success rates are highest when slots refresh at midnight. If you don’t get one, don’t lose hope; keep an eye on the system as canceled slots from withdrawals may become available anytime.

Regarding scheduling the subject one exam, my relative who works in the traffic department explained it quite clearly. The system design prevents multiple bookings at once to avoid resource wastage. The scheduling rules are fair: first-time examinees have higher priority than retakers, and those whose last exam was longer ago take precedence over recent examinees. I recommend trying to schedule the exam within 30 days of registration when your priority is highest. Also, remember to screenshot your exam time as proof in case of system issues. Here's a lesser-known fact: you must complete all other subjects within three years of passing subject one, or your results will expire, so consider your overall driving course progress when scheduling exams.

Last week, I just helped a friend research the rules for booking the subject one test, and the system indeed restricts you to booking only one session at a time. In practice, there are three key points to note: First, if you see that slots are full when booking, don't refresh immediately—wait a few minutes as someone might cancel. Second, remote test centers are easier to book successfully. Third, if you cancel a booked session for any reason, the number of test attempts won't be deducted. I recommend preparing your ID photo and other materials in advance to avoid delays in filling out the form, which could cause you to miss a slot. Although you can't book multiple sessions at once, thorough preparation can improve your chances of passing on the first try, saving you the hassle of repeated bookings.
