Does the ten days after completing Subject 1 include the exam day?

Subject 1 exam completion does not include the exam day in the ten-day count. Below are the specific details about Subject 1: Exam Format: The total duration for the Subject 1 exam is 45 minutes, consisting of 100 questions in the form of true/false and multiple-choice questions, with a full score of 100 and a passing mark of 90. The exam papers are randomly selected and combined by the computer-based driver examination system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Regulations." Exam Arrangement: Subject 1 refers to the theoretical driving test, conducted at the vehicle management office, which is a mandatory licensing exam for all driver's license applicants. The scheduling of the theoretical driving test is arranged independently by local vehicle management offices. Exam Content: Subject 1 tests traffic regulations and related knowledge, including driving theory fundamentals, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other relevant knowledge.
As someone who's been through it, I specifically asked my driving instructor about this when I was getting my license. The instructor said the day you pass Subject 1 is called 'Day Zero', and the next day counts as Day One. For example, if you pass on Monday, Tuesday is Day One, and the following Friday marks the full ten days. This is different from taking sick leave where you count the day you apply - the DMV system automatically skips the exam day in its calculation. I foolishly waited a full ten days after passing, only to find out I could schedule Subject 2 on the eleventh day, which wasted time. Also, be mindful of network congestion when booking - it's best to refresh the Traffic Management 12123 app early in the morning when there are more slots available and less lag. Keep practicing driving without breaks, as the system automatically grants permission once the time requirement is met.
