Do I have to go to learn Subject 2 every day?

Subject 2 does not require daily practice, but you can schedule evening sessions with the instructor. Here is more relevant information: 1. Subject 2 Exam: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It refers to the field driving skills test, which includes five mandatory test items for small vehicles (C1/C2): reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-curves). Some regions may include a sixth item, such as high-speed card collection. If you fail the Subject 2 exam, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or fail it again, the exam is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the exam after ten days. Within the validity period of the driving skills test permit, the number of rescheduled exams for Subject 2 and Subject 3 (road driving skills test) cannot exceed five times. If you fail the fifth rescheduled exam, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated. 2. Passing Criteria for Subject 2: The full score is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points.
When I was preparing for the driving license subject two test by myself, the coach emphasized that there was no need to go to the training ground every day. Practicing three to four times a week is completely sufficient, the key is to focus on some core items each time, such as reversing into the garage and parallel parking, spending half an hour to an hour each time to carefully adjust the points and angles. Going every day can easily lead to fatigue and make some low-level mistakes; I tried going for several days in a row, and as a result, my feel for driving declined, almost causing an accident. Driving school course designs are often arranged at intervals, giving students time to rest and digest the skills. What’s more efficient is combining video reviews: after practice, go home and watch some operation guides, simulating driving postures. Persisting in this way for one or two months, passing the test steadily is no problem, and it can also save money and time. Don’t forget, rest days help relax the mind, making you more confident during the test.
Back when I was a trainee, we didn't have to clock in daily for Subject 2 practice. Driving schools typically recommend scheduling sessions every other day or on weekends, with each session lasting about 40 minutes, mainly covering technical points like hill starts and right-angle turns. Practicing daily not only wastes time but also causes physical strain; I found that going two or three times a week actually accelerated my progress. During breaks, using mobile apps to simulate operations and memorizing reference points for rearview mirrors during reverse parking proved more practical than repetitive practice. My personal experience shows that focusing on quality over quantity, with spaced practice to reinforce memory, leads to easier test success. Of course, if progress is slow—like consistently struggling with a particular maneuver—it's fine to add one or two extra sessions, but don't force yourself into daily nonstop training. Health comes first.
