Hi everybody.
I'm from Japan, and I go to college in AB.
I'm thinking of getting a drivers licence in AB.
My friends told me that after I get a learners licence (class 7), I need to wait for an year to upgrade to a class 5 licence.
But I want to get a class 5 licence by next spring.
I'm planning to going to driving school, but do I still have to wait for an year?
Thanks for your time

The way I read the requirements, you will not be able to get a class 5 until after both your year (or more) of having a class 7 AND TWO probationary years. So no, you won't be able to get a class 5 license by next spring.

Your friend is correct. You have to get a class 7 learners and wait for one year.
