How much can I get refunded if I fail Subject 2 four times?
2 Answers
Generally, a refund is possible, but the specific amount depends on the driving school's regulations. Here is the relevant information: 1. Subject 2: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination. It refers to the field driving skills test. For small cars (C1/C2), the test includes five mandatory items: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through an S-curve. 2. Other vehicle types: For large vehicles (A1/A2/A3/B1/B2), the test includes: stake test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, driving over a single-plank bridge, driving through an S-curve, turning at a right angle, passing through a narrow gate, navigating continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, making a U-turn on a narrow road, as well as simulated scenarios such as highways, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rainy (foggy) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
Failed the driving test four times and still want a refund? Let me talk from the driving school's perspective. Many students sign contracts when enrolling that clearly state refunds are minimal for multiple failures. Failing once or twice might get you a partial refund for exam fees, but failing four times usually means almost nothing is left to refund—the driving school has already covered costs like instructor salaries, vehicle fuel, and venue maintenance, which can't be recovered. Typically, refund rates range between 10% to 20%, so for a total tuition of 5,000 RMB, you might only get 300–400 RMB back. Policies vary widely between schools—smaller ones may refuse refunds entirely, while larger ones might negotiate. The key is to check your contract; go straight to the front desk and review the documents, but don’t expect much. My advice? Cut your losses, focus on practicing, and avoid throwing more money away.
