How long after passing Subject 2 can I schedule Subject 3?

Generally, there is a 10-20 day interval between Subject 2 and Subject 3. You can schedule the Subject 3 exam online 10 days after passing Subject 2. In a few regions, Subject 2 and Subject 3 can be taken simultaneously, but in most areas, you need to pass one subject before scheduling the next. Notes on subject scheduling: 1. You must pass Subject 1 before scheduling Subject 2 or Subject 3. 2. After scheduling Subject 2 but before taking it, you can schedule Subject 3. 3. For Subject 2 or Subject 3 retakes, you must wait at least 10 days (starting from the day you failed the exam) to schedule. 4. You can only take Subject 2 and Subject 3 five times each. If you fail all five attempts, you must re-enroll in driving school. 5. Subject 4 can be scheduled simultaneously with Subject 3, but you must pass Subject 3 before taking Subject 4. 6. A retake fee is required for any subject retake.
When I finished the subject two test, I was so excited that I immediately took out my phone to book the subject three test. The instructor told me that I had to wait about 10 days to make an appointment. I tried using the 'Traffic Management 12123' app, but got stuck on a system prompt saying the interval time was not met. I had to wait patiently for a week before successfully booking it. During this time, I practiced more on-road driving with my instructor, such as parking, lane changing, and checking blind spots, since subject three is all about practical operations. Rules vary from place to place—my friend in Shanghai had to wait a month, so don’t rush. Take this opportunity to relax and review traffic rules, but don’t neglect your daily practice either.
