Does Canceling a Subject 1 Exam Reservation Count as One Attempt?
2 Answers
Canceling a scheduled driver's license exam does not count as one exam attempt. Only if you fail to attend the exam after successfully scheduling it and do not cancel the reservation in advance, the exam result will be directly marked as a failure, wasting one exam attempt. If you cancel the exam for that subject in time, it will not be counted as one attempt. Additional Information: Below is a relevant introduction to the subject exam content: 1. Subject 1: Road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam (Subject 1) is a written test, answered on a computer, with a full score of 100. A score of 90 or above is considered a pass (including 90). 2. Subject 2: Field driving skills exam (Subject 2) is conducted on-site with an actual vehicle. It is only graded as pass or fail. The five mandatory test items, performed in sequence, are: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, S-curve driving, right-angle turning, and starting and stopping on a slope. The full score is 100, with 80 or above considered a pass (including 80). 3. Subject 3: Road driving skills exam (Subject 3) is conducted on a road or simulated site with an actual vehicle. The full score is 100, with a pass score of 90 or above for large buses, 80 or above for large trucks, and 70 or above for other vehicle types. 4. Subject 4: Safety and civilized driving-related knowledge exam (Subject 4) is a written test with a full score of 100. A score of 90 or above is considered a pass (including 90).
When I first got my driver's license, I also pondered this issue. Based on personal experience and inquiries, canceling the subject one reservation definitely does not count as one exam attempt. The rules are actually quite clear—exam attempts are only deducted when you actually take the test but fail, such as signing up but not showing up or failing the exam on-site. Canceling a reservation has zero impact in the system. I’ve canceled and rescheduled a few times, and none were recorded in my exam history. However, I advise beginners not to cancel lightly, as slots are limited and delays can be troublesome. The key is to practice more with test-prep apps to boost your pass rate, ensuring you clear it in one go and save time and hassle!
