What is the passing score for Subject 3?
2 Answers
Subject 3 requires a passing score of 90 points. Below are the key points to note for the Subject 3 test: Preparation before starting: Candidates must follow the safety officer's instructions to approach the vehicle, walk around it (from the left front door to the rear), and confirm safety before opening the door to enter. After entering, upon hearing the voice prompt "Please prepare for the test and perform fingerprint verification," first adjust the seat to a comfortable position, adjust the interior and exterior rearview mirrors, and fasten the seat belt. Then proceed with fingerprint verification. The fingerprint scanner is located below the left air vent on the steering wheel. Night driving: After successful fingerprint verification, daytime test candidates will hear the voice prompt "Now begins the simulation of nighttime light usage, please follow the voice prompts to operate" before starting. Candidates should then begin the light operation. The nighttime light simulation test will randomly select three items from the following for examination.
I just passed the Subject 3 test recently, and the nervousness still lingers. The passing score is 90 out of 100, which is quite common in China's driving test. During the exam, items like starting, turning, and parking are evaluated one by one by the examiner. Minor mistakes deduct 10 points, while major errors result in an immediate fail. When practicing, I focused on parallel parking and lane changes because these are areas where points are easily lost, such as forgetting to signal or improper distance control. On the exam day, I performed the maneuvers slowly to maintain stability and ended up scoring 92, passing the test. It's advisable to simulate the test route multiple times before the exam to familiarize yourself with the environment, ensure safe driving habits, and avoid speeding or emergency braking. Passing the test indeed makes driving feel more secure, but continuous practical practice is still needed to reinforce skills.
