Just got my C1 driver's license, let me tell you, getting a license really depends on the person. As a college student, I used my summer vacation to practice driving continuously. For Subject 2 (reverse parking), I practiced so much that I even dreamed about turning the steering wheel. For Subject 3 (road test), my coach yelled at me for two whole weeks before I remembered to press the clutch when shifting gears. The most frustrating part was the hill start—eight out of ten times, the car would stall. On the day of the test, my palms were sweaty. However, after 45 days of intensive training, I passed in one go. The secret? Don’t skimp on money—have the coach take you for extra practice sessions at the test site before the exam. Looking back, the main challenges were coordination, especially with manual transmission requiring simultaneous use of hands and feet to control the clutch. Learning at a younger age definitely helps speed things up.
