What score is required to pass Subject 4?

[LeCalvin]

According to the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses', the road driving skills and safety & civilized driving knowledge test in Subject 3 requires a score of 90 points to pass. Each incorrect answer deducts 2 points, with a maximum allowance of 5 wrong answers (beyond which is considered a fail). The full score is 100 points. Questions 1-10 are true/false questions; 11-40 are single-choice questions; and 41-50 are multiple-choice questions. The test includes question types such as image analysis, animated case studies, and text descriptions. The scope of Subject 4 covers driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions; recognition of common traffic signs, markings, and hand signals; accident rescue and hazardous material handling knowledge; comprehensive judgment of illegal behaviors and case analysis; emergency avoidance knowledge; safe driving knowledge; and driving ethics and civilized driving knowledge. According to the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses', there is no limit to the number of attempts for Subject 1 and Subject 4. If you fail the first attempt on the same day, you can retake it immediately. If you still fail, you need to reschedule the test, and no additional fees are required for retakes. However, it is important to note that the validity period of the driving skills test permit is three years. If the applicant does not complete all tests within this period, the passed subject scores will become invalid. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, Subject 3 was divided into two parts: the road test and the safety & civilized driving knowledge test, commonly referred to as 'Subject 4', which evaluates 'driving ethics'. Subject 4 is the colloquial term for the safety & civilized driving knowledge test under Subject 3 and is not a separate subject. Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly called Subject 4. Officially, there is no Subject 4. The safety & civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3. Subject 4 Test Notes: Test Duration: The test lasts 30 minutes. If you lose 12 points (6 questions) during the test, the session will be terminated. Number of Questions: Depending on the type of license, 50 questions are randomly selected from the Subject 4 question bank. For car licenses, questions are drawn from a pool of 800; for large vehicle licenses, from a pool of 1,023. Each question is worth 2 points. Question Types: The test includes single-choice questions (including true/false questions) and multiple-choice questions. The first 45 questions are single-choice, and the last 5 are multiple-choice. The test also includes animated questions, image-based questions, scenario recognition questions, and text-based questions. Retake Notes: If you fail Subject 4, you only need to retake Subject 4. The driving school will schedule the retake, and there is no limit to the number of retakes. You can retake until you pass, and no additional fees are required for Subject 4 retakes. The driving test consists of 3 subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3, with Subject 3 divided into two parts. Subject 1 refers to the traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test; and Subject 3 refers to the road driving skills and safety & civilized driving knowledge test.

I recently took the Subject 4 test and just passed with the minimum score of 90. During preparation, I used the Driving Test Treasure APP for practice, doing one to two hours of mock tests daily. Questions about traffic signals and emergency handling were the easiest to get wrong, so I had to repeatedly review the wrong answer collection. The exam has 50 questions, each worth 2 points—missing five could be risky. It's advisable to aim for at least 95 in mock tests before the real exam. Don’t cram at the last minute; start two weeks early, stay relaxed, and ensure enough time. Mastering safety knowledge not only helps pass but also benefits actual driving.

As a frequent tutor, scoring 90 points to pass Subject 4 is the basic requirement, with questions covering all aspects of safe driving. Focus on key points during revision, such as right-of-way rules and responses to severe weather. Use mobile apps or official question banks to practice mock tests multiple times, avoiding mistakes due to nervousness during the exam. With a total score of 100, aiming for above 92 points is more secure, and retaking the test if not passed is not difficult. Mastering safety rules is crucial to prevent road risks—don't overlook the importance of theory.

As an older adult with a not-so-good memory, I passed the Subject 4 test on my second attempt, and the 90-point passing score seems fair. Every night before bed, I reviewed APP questions for half an hour and took notes on common mistakes like traffic violation handling questions. During the actual exam, take your time to read each question carefully—passing ensures you've grasped the basics, which is helpful for future driving. The study materials were simple and practical, easy to understand without needing professional jargon.
