How Many Times Can You Schedule the Driving Test for Subject 3?

[LaLucia]

You have 5 opportunities to schedule the driving test for Subject 3. If you exceed this limit, you will no longer be able to schedule the test, and all previously passed test subjects will be invalidated, requiring you to re-enroll and start from the beginning. Generally, you can schedule the Subject 3 test 10-20 days after passing Subject 2. However, the exact scheduling time depends on the number of local test-takers and the regulations of the vehicle management office. Once the applicant successfully schedules the test, they cannot cancel the appointment online. If they are unable to attend the test at the scheduled time, they must apply for cancellation at the vehicle management office one day in advance. The applicant must bring their ID to the scheduled test location and time. Failure to attend on time will result in a failed test attempt. Tips for scheduling Subject 3: Opting for the "system allocation mode" can increase the success rate of scheduling to some extent, but the test session and time will not be fixed. Try to avoid crowded test centers and opt for more remote locations, where fewer people schedule tests, making it relatively easier to secure an appointment.

I was quite worried about the number of booking attempts when I took the third driving test. Generally, you have around 5 chances to take the test, but the exact number depends on local regulations from the driving administration. For example, Shanghai might cap it at 5 attempts, while Shenzhen offers additional retake opportunities. After each failed attempt, you have to wait at least 10 days before booking again—don’t rush to retake it immediately. I think mindset is crucial. For instance, I failed my first try due to nervous mistakes, but after waiting two weeks and booking a second attempt, I passed by practicing road driving more. The key is to work with your instructor to repeatedly simulate test scenarios. With limited booking attempts, too many failures can hurt your confidence and wallet. In short, check local rules carefully, prepare thoroughly, and don’t waste your chances.

I'm currently preparing for the Subject 3 driving test and worried about running out of booking attempts. I heard there are usually 5 booking opportunities, but after each failure you have to wait 10-15 days to rebook, which is really annoying. I'm afraid failing will prolong my driving course and cost more money. A friend suggested I shouldn't panic too much - with limited attempts, I should make good use of the intervals to intensify practice, especially on lane changes and parking. The most reliable way is to ask the driving instructor about specific policies, don't be like me always rushing to take tests and wasting opportunities.

From a teaching perspective, the third driving test (Subject 3) can generally be scheduled up to 5 times. After each failed attempt, it's best to wait at least two weeks before rebooking to allow students to review mistakes and practice fundamental skills. I always emphasize mastering the simulated test procedures before scheduling the actual exam to avoid repeated failures affecting progress. It's advisable to check local transportation websites for clear rules rather than relying on guesswork.

I started learning to drive late and it took me three attempts to successfully schedule the third subject test. The number of scheduling attempts is usually around five, and after a failure, you must wait at least 10 days before trying again. I recommend not rushing to schedule the test; instead, spend more time practicing on the road. Like me, practicing two hours daily saved me from unnecessary scheduling attempts. With limited attempts available, planning your learning pace well is crucial.
