How Many Days After the Physical Examination Can You Schedule Subject 1?
2 Answers
After completing the physical examination for driving school enrollment, you can schedule the Subject 1 test online approximately 10 days later. Before scheduling, you should review the Subject 1 study materials and practice test questions. Enrollment in the driving school is only preliminary; after enrollment, the school submits your documents to the vehicle management office. Upon successful submission, the office will issue a serial number, indicating successful enrollment. Once enrolled, you can proceed to schedule the Subject 1 test. 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, with each question worth 1 point. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the examination. Subject 1 test content includes: driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and regulations; road 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 test precautions: During the test, students should pay attention to their attire—no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the examination room. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned seat and begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and adhere to exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After completion, queue to collect your score report and sign it—failure to sign renders it invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject allows one test attempt, with one retake if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail it, the test ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 allow only five attempts each, and scheduling must occur at least ten days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safe and civilized 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 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test; and Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official terminology (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include the term "Subject 4."
I remember when I was getting my driver's license, I could usually book the subject one test within 48 hours after the medical check-up because the driving school instructor said the medical report would be quickly entered into the system. I had my medical check-up on Monday morning and managed to book the subject one test on the exam platform by Wednesday afternoon. You need to make sure you've passed the medical check first. Log in to the local DMV app or the account provided by the driving school, and the system will automatically update the status. If you can't book it in time, it might be due to a delay in backend processing. Don't worry, it's best to wait a day and try again or just call the instructor directly. I recommend checking the system multiple times after the medical check to avoid having to wait longer if the exam slots get filled up. Also, if you have special circumstances like needing an urgent test, you can track the progress on the same day as the medical check, but most people can get it done this quickly.
