How many days does it usually take to successfully schedule the Subject 1 test?
2 Answers
Subject 1 test scheduling acceptance time is not fixed. Depending on the number of applicants, the queue for scheduling acceptance and the speed of successful acceptance vary. Generally, it takes about a week for the application to be processed after online scheduling. Below is relevant information about Subject 1: 1. Test Introduction: The Subject 1 test is a theoretical knowledge exam conducted at the vehicle management office, which is a mandatory licensing exam for applicants. The test content includes the most basic knowledge such as driving theory fundamentals, road safety laws and regulations, traffic signals, traffic rules, as well as local regulations. The scheduling of the driver theory test is arranged by local vehicle management offices. 2. Test Process: The total time for the Subject 1 test is 45 minutes. The test paper consists of 100 questions, including true/false questions and multiple-choice questions, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. The test paper is randomly selected and combined by the computer driver examination system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Business Work Specifications."
Last week, I accompanied my cousin to sign up for driving school. The instructor said that booking for Subject 1 usually takes 3-5 days. He mentioned the most critical part is how fast the driving school uploads your documents to the DMV for review—they internally call it 'face signing.' If this step gets stuck, you’ll be waiting for nothing. Only after approval can you enter the booking pool, where the system randomly queues you. My cousin applied in a small town on Wednesday and directly booked the Friday afternoon slot, but the instructor said in big cities, it’s packed—waiting a week is common. Remember to choose less popular test centers or afternoon slots, as they’re easier to book than morning ones! The instructor also secretly advised us to avoid submitting applications on Mondays when the system is most congested.
