C2 subject 2 test has a full score of 100 points, and a score of 90 or above is considered passing. Here is additional information: 1. Passing standards for other items: For large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, a score of 80 or above is considered passing. 2. Notes: Preparation before starting the vehicle includes fastening the seatbelt, checking if the vehicle is turned off, and ensuring the gear is in neutral. After the vehicle is turned off, the gear must be in neutral before restarting. Avoid continuous starting of the vehicle. For reversing into the garage, note that both front wheels must cross the dashed line before starting to reverse. For the right-angle turn, the turn signal must be activated before entering the project area and can be turned off before starting the turning action after entering the project area. For the hill start project, pay attention to the handbrake action. Candidates are not allowed to receive verbal prompts after starting the test.

Last year, I obtained my C2 driver's license. I knew that both the Theory Test (Subject 1) and the Safety Knowledge Test (Subject 4) required a passing score of 90, while the Practical Driving Tests (Subject 2 and Subject 3) only needed 80 points to pass. The Theory Test (Subject 1) was all about theoretical questions, and scoring 90 was crucial. At that time, I used the 'Driving Test Treasure' app to practice questions every day, repeatedly reviewing the mistakes in my error log. In the end, I scored 92. During the Subject 2 training, my instructor said 80 points would be enough to pass, but I had to pay special attention to the reverse parking—touching the line would result in an immediate 100-point deduction. The on-road test (Subject 3) was more prone to minor deductions, such as forgetting to signal a turn, which would cost 10 points each time, so precision in operation was key. I recommend taking mock exams in advance and ensuring a stable score above 90 before registering for the actual test—this way, you’ll feel more confident.

After teaching driving for ten years, I found that the passing score is what students care about most. For the written tests on traffic rules and common knowledge (Subject 1 and Subject 4), you need 90 points to pass, meaning you can get no more than 10 questions wrong out of 100. The on-site Subject 2 test requires 80 points to pass, covering five operations—for example, rolling back more than 30cm on a slope will cost you points, but you're allowed two mistakes. The road test (Subject 3) also requires 80 points. Failing to check the rearview mirror when changing lanes will result in an instant 100-point deduction, but don’t panic over minor mistakes—you can still pass with 80 points after losing 20. The key is to familiarize yourself with the test routes and note frequent mistakes during practice. Arrive early on the test day to avoid draining your energy in long queues.

A score of 90 for Subject 1, 80 for Subject 2, 80 for Subject 3, and 90 for Subject 4—these are the passing standards for the four subjects of the C2 driver's license. If you fail, you can retake up to five times, but you need to rebook each time. For example, in Subject 2, hitting the line during reverse parking means an immediate fail, but exceeding 30cm in hill starts only deducts 10 points. During my Subject 3 test, I was penalized 10 points for parking more than 30cm from the curb but barely passed with 80 points. I recommend using a driving test app to practice Subject 1 questions daily and take mock exams consistently in the week before the test, ensuring scores stay above 90 before the actual exam. Mindset matters more than skill—being too nervous can easily cost you points.

I failed my first attempt at Subject 2 because reversing over the line resulted in an immediate zero score. Later, I learned that 80 points are enough to pass, with parking sideways over the line deducting only 10 points, and starting on a slope exceeding 30cm also deducting 10 points. On my third attempt, I kept my cool, lost 10 points for parking sideways, but performed perfectly on the rest, passing exactly with 80 points. For Subjects 1 and 4, which require 90 points to pass, I spent three days going through the question bank, focusing especially on traffic police hand signals. Don’t be afraid of retakes; the retake fee for Subjects 2 and 3 is around 200, which is more cost-effective than reapplying. Before the test, I recommend taking a sip of water, taking deep breaths, and treating the examiner as a practice coach.

For the written tests (Subject 1 and Subject 4), you need to score at least 90 out of 100 questions. The key is to focus on frequently mistaken topics like traffic police gestures and sign meanings, which account for 30% of the test. For the practical tests (Subject 2 and Subject 3), 80 points are enough to pass. Hitting the line while reversing results in an immediate fail, but hitting the line during parallel parking deducts 10 points, and stalling on a slope also deducts 10 points. My advice for Subject 2 is to operate slowly without rushing, pausing for two seconds at each point to adjust. For Subject 3, always signal before changing lanes and check mirrors, ensuring all actions are performed correctly. Before the test, I used a test site map app to simulate the route three times, familiarizing myself with every turn. In the end, I passed Subject 3 with 92 points on my first attempt.
