Must the second retake of Subject 1 be conducted on the same day?

Subject 1 exam does not allow the second retake opportunity on the same day; you must reschedule it through the "Traffic Management 12123" APP. The total duration of the Subject 1 exam is 45 minutes. The test paper consists of 100 questions, including true/false and single-choice questions, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. The test paper is randomly selected and combined by the computer driver examination system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Regulations". Subject 1 exam process: Follow the staff's arrangements and receive your driving training file in order in the waiting area; Carry and present your ID card for inspection by the supervising officer; Mobile phones must be turned off upon entering the exam area; No loud noises are allowed in the exam area; Regulation textbooks are not allowed in the exam area (or should be placed in your bag); After the exam, keep your ID card safe and submit the file to the "Document Submission Window" at the front of the exam room; Candidates who pass the exam should sign under the guidance of the staff at the exit before leaving; Candidates who fail the exam can leave the exam room and wait for their driving school to notify them of the retake time.
When I took the first driving theory test, I failed the first time and panicked. I immediately asked the staff if I could retake it the same day. They said it's usually not possible, and I'd have to reschedule for a retest, which might take three or four days to get a slot. So, I went home and practiced more, using some driving test apps for mock exams. When I felt fully prepared, I went back and passed easily the second time. Rules vary by location—some test centers with fewer candidates might allow same-day retests, but most require you to come back another day. I suggest asking the staff right after your test about the specific procedures instead of waiting around. The key to passing the theory test is understanding traffic rules—focusing on frequently missed questions during review can boost your pass rate.
