How soon can I schedule the Subject Four exam after passing Subject Three in the driving test?
4 Answers
After passing Subject Three, the scheduling for Subject Four exam falls into three scenarios: Taking the exam directly on the same afternoon; No appointment required within 9 days—within 9 days after passing Subject Three, you can take the Subject Four exam at the test center by presenting your ID card; Scheduling after 10 days—whether the appointment is successful depends on the current number of examinees, the priority of the student, and temporary arrangements at the test center. Subject Four, also known as the Subject Four theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It includes requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, knowledge of safe driving under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge. Subject Four Exam Notes: Exam duration: The exam lasts 45 minutes. Making mistakes totaling 12 points (6 questions) will terminate the exam. Number of questions: 50 questions are proportionally selected from the corresponding Subject Four question bank based on the type of driver's license being tested, with each question worth 2 points. Question types: The exam includes single-choice questions (including true/false questions) and multiple-choice questions. The first 45 questions are single-choice, and the last 5 are multiple-choice. The exam also includes animated questions, picture-based questions, scenario recognition questions, and text-based questions. Retake notes: Failing Subject Four only requires retaking Subject Four. The driving school will schedule the retake, with no limit on the number of retakes. You can retake until you pass, and no retake fee is required for Subject Four. Subject Four Exam Tips: Strengthen weak areas and identify reasons for mistakes. For marked questions, don’t just memorize the correct answer. Refer to regulations, textbooks, or reference books to understand the reasons behind the mistakes and internalize them. Categorize and summarize questions. Refer to the question bank analysis for classification and find similar questions: Many questions in the bank are similar and easily confused, so they should be analyzed and summarized. For example, traffic signs for walking, hiking, pedestrian crossing, and pedestrian attention are very similar and easily mixed up. Grouping them during study helps avoid mistakes. Find memorization techniques: Many questions in the bank involve numbers. Summarizing these numbers can make memorization easier. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject One, Subject Two, and Subject Three. Subject Three is divided into two parts. Subject Four is the colloquial term for the Subject Three Safe and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test and is not a separate subject. Subject One refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; Subject Two refers to the field driving skills test; Subject Three refers to the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject Three.
After I passed the driving test Part 3, my instructor immediately told me I could schedule Part 4. You can book the exam either through the Traffic Management 12123 App or directly via the driving school system. Generally, you can do this once your results are recorded, which usually takes one to three days. In some areas with high efficiency, you might even book on the same day, but if there's a system delay, it might take longer. In my case, I scheduled the exam the next day. Part 4 mainly tests common knowledge of safe driving, and the question bank is quite simple. I just brushed up on some questions daily to keep my memory fresh. The whole process was stress-free, and I recommend scheduling the exam early to avoid forgetting the knowledge.
As someone who frequently guides students through driving tests, you can immediately schedule the subject four test after completing subject three. The results are quickly confirmed after being uploaded to the system, usually within one or two days. I always remind students to use the official APP for scheduling, as it's convenient and fast. Don't rush to book the test; review first. Subject four has many questions, and safety rules are easy to get wrong, leading to point deductions. After successfully scheduling, pay attention to the exam date to avoid missing it. In short, schedule early to get your license sooner and drive safely on the road.
Last time, right after passing the driving test subject three, I immediately booked subject four using a mobile app, and the system automatically updated the status without any waiting. Just go through the subject four question bank a few times on the 'Driving Test Guide' app, it's super easy. Simply click the booking function and choose the nearest available exam date to save time. The whole process is convenient and satisfying.
