How many days will it take to receive the SMS notification after scheduling the Subject 4 test?

Generally, you will receive an SMS reply within 7 days after scheduling the Subject 4 test. The rules for scheduling the Subject 4 test and the exam content are as follows: Rules for scheduling the Subject 4 test: After logging into the exam scheduling platform, there is a button next to 'Schedule Exam' called 'Cancel Application', which allows you to cancel the scheduled exam. Each person has 3 opportunities to cancel a scheduled exam for each subject without any negative consequences. However, if the student has successfully scheduled the exam and has already received an SMS notification from the DMV, canceling the scheduled exam in this case will affect the priority. Subject 4 exam content: Requirements for safe and civilized driving operations; Safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions; Emergency handling methods for situations such as tire blowouts; Knowledge of post-accident handling procedures, etc.
I have helped many students with similar issues before. Usually, the SMS notification for Subject 4 comes within one to three days after successful scheduling. This depends on the processing speed of the exam center. If it's during peak periods or weekends, it might take a bit longer, say around two days. I suggest not worrying too much about waiting for the SMS, but also check your phone settings to ensure normal message reception. If you haven’t received it after three days, it’s best to log in to the local driving test management website to confirm your booking status or contact the driving school for updates. Remember, you’ll receive a detailed notification before the exam, including the time and location, so the focus should still be on reviewing traffic rules to improve your pass rate. On exam day, just bring your ID card and relevant documents—safety comes first.
