Weekend appointments for the Subject 4 exam are not available. Below is detailed information about the Subject 4 exam: 1. Introduction: Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the assessment for obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license. After the implementation of the "Ministry of Public Security Order No. 139 of the People's Republic of China," the Subject 3 exam was divided into two parts. In addition to the road test, a safety and civilization knowledge test was added, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which assesses "driving ethics." Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly called the Subject 4 exam, although officially, there is no such term as Subject 4. 2. Test Composition: The exam consists of 50 questions, presented in the form of case studies, images, animations, etc., with a full score of 100, and a passing score of 90.
As someone who has run a driving school for many years, I often see that scheduling the Subject 4 exam on weekends is quite common. Many local DMVs open test centers on Saturdays and Sundays to accommodate working professionals and students. I've helped students book Sunday exams many times. You'll need to check your local regulations, which can be easily done with the 12123 app—quick and convenient. I recommend booking at least a week in advance; don’t wait until the last minute, as test center slots may fill up. The exam isn’t difficult—just practice the question bank thoroughly, stay calm, and remember to bring your ID and admission ticket. Passing this exam means getting your driver’s license—the final step in your driving journey. It’s worth preparing well, as safety always comes first.
