What is the pass rate for Subject 2?
2 Answers
In 2021, the one-time pass rate for Subject 2 could basically reach 50%. Because Subject 2 is relatively difficult, requiring both practical skills and psychological factors, fewer people actually pass. Preparation before the test If you don't want to travel long distances to the vehicle management office to take the test, you can choose to stay in a hotel near the vehicle management office the night before the test, preferably with a companion. Being well-rested and not having to rush to queue for a number is a good start to the test, allowing you to stay relaxed and unhurried. Waiting before the test The vehicle management office usually opens at 7 AM, and the test starts at 8 AM. The numbers are assigned in chronological order, and the position in the queue can give you a rough idea of the test time. If there are people around who are extremely nervous and affecting your mood, immediately distance yourself to avoid catching their nervousness.
I just got my driver's license a couple of days ago, and when chatting with friends, I realized the pass rate for Subject 2 is indeed not high, averaging around 60% to 70% nationwide. Many driving schools publish their data. In big cities like Beijing and Shanghai with large populations, the rate might barely reach the passing mark, while in smaller towns where there's ample practice time and responsible instructors, it can exceed 80%. The most challenging parts of Subject 2 are the hill start and reverse parking—getting nervous often leads to stalling and failing. I recommend choosing a driving school with familiar vehicles and doing plenty of simulated practice. I practiced for half a month before the test before passing. Weather also has a big impact; poor visibility on rainy days makes mistakes more likely.
