What does it mean to schedule two sessions for Subject 1?
4 Answers
Subject 1 exam scheduling two sessions is to increase the chances of successful reservation. Because the same exam will be conducted in different sessions according to different time periods, and there are two modes in the exam system: self-scheduling and following the exam system arrangement. Self-scheduling means that you can schedule multiple exam sessions within the selected exam start and end dates; following the arrangement means that eligible sessions will be automatically matched within the selected exam start and end dates. Subject 1 exam content: Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; laws, regulations, and road traffic signals; basic knowledge of safe driving and civilized driving; basic knowledge related to motor vehicle driving operations. Subject 1 exam process: Follow the arrangement of the staff and receive your own driving school file in order in the waiting area; Carry and present your ID card and accept the review of the supervising police officer; Mobile phones must be turned off when entering the exam area; No loud noise is allowed in the exam area; Regulation textbooks are not allowed to be brought into the exam area (or put in the bag); After the exam, keep your ID card safe and hand in the file to the "Certificate Submission Window" at the front of the exam area; Candidates who pass the exam will leave the exam area after signing under the guidance of the staff at the exit; Candidates who fail the exam can leave the exam area and wait for the notification of the retake time from the driving school staff.
I recently scheduled my Subject 1 test and I'm quite familiar with the process of booking two sessions. Basically, when selecting test slots for Subject 1 on the 12123 APP, you can simultaneously check two different time slots or test locations for exam registration. Why do this? Because there are so many people taking driver's license exams now, and test center slots are limited! If you only book one session, you might get bumped if the slots fill up. By booking two sessions, the system will review them first and confirm whichever one you get scheduled for. But a word of caution: don't schedule the two sessions too close together. If you get scheduled for both and pass both, you can only attend one, and the other will count as a no-show, which might affect your future arrangements. So it's best to pick one preferred session and one backup—that's the safest approach.
Regarding the matter of booking two sessions for Subject One, I think the main purpose is to increase the success rate. Nowadays, there are crowds of people learning to drive, and exam slots often get snapped up in seconds. When I selected the exam time on the 12123 app, the system allowed me to submit two session reservation requests at once. For example, I chose next Tuesday morning and then Wednesday afternoon. The system would then automatically arrange them according to the rules, and whichever session gets scheduled first will be the one. However, it's crucial to remember that these two sessions cannot be on the same day; they must be on different dates or at different test centers. If both sessions are scheduled for you, you need to quickly decide which one to attend and remember to cancel the other. By following this approach, you can usually secure a slot without having to repeatedly refresh the page in frustration.
Just helped a friend with the subject one test reservation process. Booking two sessions means submitting two time slot choices in the registration system. For example, you can apply for both Friday at 3 PM and Saturday at 9 AM. The system will uniformly arrange the schedule after registration closes, matching based on the student's priority and registration order. If the first choice isn't available, it automatically rolls over to the second choice. The biggest advantage of this is avoiding a failed reservation due to a single session being fully booked, essentially providing double insurance. However, it's important to leave sufficient time between these two sessions. For instance, don't choose back-to-back slots like 8 AM and 9 AM in the morning. If both are successfully booked, there wouldn't be enough time to travel between tests.
