How many test sessions are there for Subject 1 in one day?
2 Answers
There are five test sessions scheduled for Subject 1 each day. The first session starts at 9:00, the second at 10:00, the third at 13:00, the fourth at 14:00, and the fifth at 15:00. Subject 1 does not limit the number of test attempts. Each test has two opportunities. If both attempts fail, you need to reschedule the test. The test process for Subject 1: Follow the staff's instructions and receive your driving training file in order at the waiting area; Bring and present your ID card for inspection by the supervising officer; Mobile phones must be turned off upon entering the test area; No loud talking is allowed in the test area; Regulation textbooks are not allowed in the test area (or should be kept in your bag); After the test, keep your ID card safe and submit the file to the "Document Submission Window" at the front of the test area; Candidates who pass the test will sign under the guidance of the staff at the exit and then leave the test area; Candidates who fail the test may leave the test area and wait for notification from their driving school regarding the retest time.
When I took the written test (Subject 1) last year, there were quite a few exam sessions available, with multiple time slots to choose from each day. I took the test in Beijing, where the vehicle management office typically schedules one or two sessions in both the morning and afternoon. During peak seasons, they may add extra sessions to meet demand, with each session accommodating around 40-50 examinees. The exact number depends on the size of the test center—locations in the city center usually offer more sessions than those in suburban areas. Remember to book your slot in advance via the Traffic Management 12123 app by entering your personal details to check available time slots for the day, and avoid scheduling during month-ends or holidays when it gets crowded. The test itself takes just 30 minutes of answering questions, but don’t pick the last session of the day as rushing may cause nervousness and affect your performance. Bring your ID card and arrive on time—being late means forfeiting your chance, wasting time, and having to reschedule.
