How Long Does It Usually Take to Practice for Subject 2?

Generally, the daily practice time for each individual is not fixed, nor is the number of practice days. Normally, practicing for Subject 2 takes about two weeks. Relevant information about Subject 2: 1. Exam Content: After entering the examination area, the safety officer arranges for the examinee to get into the car. After swiping the ID card, the exam begins. There are 5 test items: stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turn, S-curve, parallel parking, and reversing into a garage. The exam duration is approximately 10 minutes. 2. Exam Essentials: Master the basic driving operation essentials and possess the fundamental ability to control the vehicle; proficiently grasp the basic methods of driving on the test site and internal roads, have the ability to reasonably use vehicle control components and correctly control the spatial position of the vehicle, and be able to accurately control the vehicle's position, speed, and route.

I'm a new driver who just got my license this year. For the second driving test subject, it usually takes about 10 to 15 hours of practice. Driving schools typically arrange 10 lessons, each lasting one hour, mainly focusing on exercises like reversing into a parking space and parallel parking. It took me 14 hours to master it because I kept stalling on hill starts at first, and only overcame it after repeated practice. It's best to practice three times a week without long breaks; as a working person like me, I could only practice on weekends, dragging it out to three weeks before the test. Some friends who are more coordinated picked it up faster, taking only 8 hours. The key is to spend more time in the car to get a feel for the vehicle's position, and watching video tutorials at home can also speed up the learning process. Don't rush too much—mastering the basic operations solidly will make the test smoother. Getting nervous and making mistakes means retaking the test, which wastes more time.

As an experienced driving instructor who has taught many students, I believe that the ideal practice time for Subject 2 is generally between 12 to 20 hours. Most students need around 15 sessions to master all the items, with reverse parking being the most time-consuming, as many get stuck at this point. I always advise students to focus on practicing for two weeks, with one hour per day being the most effective. For those with weaker foundations, it's better to start with steering wheel control and spatial awareness of the vehicle before tackling the more difficult tasks. Personally, I recommend budgeting 15 hours and adding a mock test training a few days before the exam to adapt to the venue in advance, reducing psychological barriers and increasing the success rate.

The practice time for Subject 2 generally ranges between 10 to 15 hours, which is the average standard class hours set by driving schools. In terms of lesson arrangement, 10 sessions cover all the content, with reversing and hill starts taking up the majority. The duration varies from person to person—those with better coordination learn faster. For someone like me who had no prior experience with cars, it took 12 hours to master. It's recommended to practice intensively to avoid forgetting the feel if stretched over too long. Be sure to simulate the test environment once before the exam to reinforce memory. Allocating 15 hours is a safer bet to avoid wasting time on retakes.

As a driver who frequently interacts with driving schools, I've noticed significant variations in the training hours required for Subject 2. The average ranges from 10 to 15 hours, but some pass with full marks in just 8 hours, while others need over 20 hours and still retake the test. The main factors are individual driving aptitude and reaction speed. For example, with my average coordination, it took me 10 hours of practice to master reverse parking. Focusing extra practice on core skills can shorten the cycle, and intensive mock tests in the days before the exam yield the most direct results. Allocating a total of 12 to 15 hours is more realistic—don’t cut corners on lesson fees at the expense of exam confidence.
