How Long After the Driver's License Medical Exam Can You Take the Theory Test (Subject 1)?

[DiJudah]

After successfully passing the medical examination for driving school enrollment, in some regions, you can directly schedule the test, while in others, you need to complete approximately 10 days of study hours before you can book the Subject 1 exam. Before scheduling, you should review the Subject 1 study materials and practice test questions. Enrolling in a driving school is only a preliminary registration. After enrollment, the driving school submits your documents to the Vehicle Management Office. Upon successful processing, the office will issue a serial number, indicating successful registration. Once registered, you can proceed to schedule the Subject 1 exam. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," Subject 1 consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject 1 test content includes: driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and rules; traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: During the exam, students should dress appropriately—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam room. At the identity verification station, you will be assigned a seat. Once seated, begin the exam, ensuring the camera is aligned with you and adhering to exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. Failing again requires paying to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Unsigned reports are considered invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject allows one exam attempt, with one retake if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail it, the exam session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 allow only five exam attempts each, with scheduling permitted ten days after a failed attempt. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 covers traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 is the field driving skills test. Subject 3 includes two components: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, commonly referred to as Subject 4, though this term is not officially recognized in regulations (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123).
