How Long Does It Usually Take to Prepare for Subject 2 Driving Test?

Typically, it takes 12-22 days. For C1 and C2 driver's license training at driving schools, the theoretical study time for Subject 2 must reach 2 hours, and the practical training time must reach 22 hours before taking the test. However, this standard is not strictly enforced, as many driving schools submit exam lists based on the proficiency level of the students, making the practice time variable. If you want to take the test as soon as possible, you should increase the frequency of your driving practice at the school. Here are some important notes: 1. Adjust the seat and fasten the seat belt: Before starting, you must adjust the seat and fasten the seat belt before verifying your fingerprint. 2. GPS positioning detection: Each test item in the examination area is monitored by GPS positioning. The control line (yellow dotted line) of each item represents the test area for that item. Once the front of the vehicle crosses the control line, it means you have entered the test area for that item and must complete the test according to its rules. 3. Correct mistakes immediately: If you notice an operational error, correct it promptly to ensure accuracy and minimize point deductions.

When I was learning to drive, I practiced for about a month for Subject 2, basically going to the driving school four or five times a week, practicing for one or two hours each time. Parallel parking and reversing into a bay were the most challenging. At first, I was all over the place, and the instructor always said to make the movements more precise and not just rely on feeling. After about 20 hours of practice, I got the hang of it, but I added some extra time to practice hill starts just in case. Before the test, I did an extra simulation of the test route, which made me feel much more confident. Don’t rush; build a solid foundation first. Once the movements become familiar, passing will come naturally. Everyone has their own pace—some friends finished in three weeks, but taking it steady didn’t hurt me. The key is not to be afraid of repetitive practice and to stay calm during the test.

I think the duration of practicing for Subject 2 varies from person to person. I practiced for about 25 days. The key is to thoroughly understand the field projects, such as curve driving and right-angle turns, which require more time to get used to. Generally, practicing 30 to 40 times can build confidence, but it's crucial to follow the coach's guidance and avoid unnecessary struggles. I suggest not dragging it out too long to prevent losing touch, nor rushing too fast to avoid mistakes. During practice, reversing is a hurdle; mastering it makes the rest smoother. Familiarizing yourself with the test site beforehand can reduce stress, and reviewing your movements after practice helps. Short practice time doesn't necessarily mean good results; more practice ensures steadiness.

For the practice time of Subject 2, I think around 15 to 25 hours is sufficient. The key is precision in movements, such as starting and turning. Over-practicing can lead to fatigue and mistakes. It's recommended to practice intensively without long breaks to maintain a good feel. With solid foundational skills, passing the test will come naturally. Simulating the test route a couple of times is more effective. Don't rush it; follow your own pace.
