How Long Does It Take to Schedule a Retake for Subject 2?
4 Answers
Subject 2 retakes can only be scheduled ten days after the initial attempt. More related information is as follows: 1. These ten days are calculated starting from the day after the candidate fails the exam, meaning the retake can only be scheduled on the eleventh day. 2. Scheduling the exam does not mean you can take it immediately. The actual exam date depends on the successful scheduling time, and usually, several more days are required after successful scheduling before the retake can be conducted. More information about Subject 2 is as follows: 1. In driving schools, for C1 and C2 license training, the theoretical study time for Subject 2 must reach 2 hours, and the practical training time must reach 22 hours before the exam can be taken. 2. Additionally, many driving schools report the exam list based on the students' proficiency level, meaning the practice time is not fixed.
I failed my driving test (Subject 2) and immediately went to the driving school to ask about retaking it. The instructor said I had to wait 7 days before reapplying because of a system cooldown period. On the 7th day, I tried booking a slot using the driving test app on my phone. I chose a free morning slot on a weekday, and the whole process took just a few minutes. The next day, I received a confirmation notice. The entire retake process—from failure to the actual test—took about 10 days, but during peak times, it could stretch to two weeks. My friend had to wait 15 days when he booked right before National Day. The key is not to delay too long, as your skills might get rusty, which makes things worse. I recommend keeping up with practice and not stopping. The app is quite reliable.
Over the years, I've noticed that for most people retaking the driving test's subject two (parking skills), the rescheduling usually requires a 7 to 10-day waiting period as mandated by traffic authorities. Candidates can directly contact their driving schools or use the official app to book – the process itself takes just minutes, but application queues are affected by peak periods. For instance, it moves slower during summer breaks when demand is high. My advice is to act early by selecting non-holiday time slots when booking to minimize delay risks. After all, driving skills require consistent practice; last-minute cramming isn't safe.
I booked my make-up test for Subject 2 super fast using the APP. After failing, you have to wait 7 days before you can book again. I logged in first thing in the morning after the 7-day wait and secured a test date for next week in just a few seconds—the whole process took less than 10 minutes. But this only works if the APP runs smoothly; system maintenance or high traffic can delay things by half a day, so don’t wait until the last minute. The key is still to practice your skills regularly to avoid failing again.
