Ответы на hsk экзамен

Taking an HSK practice test proves to be a great way to prepare for the HSK exam. It gives you a baseline for understanding where you are starting from. You can identify your strengths and weakness quickly, and use the results as the basis for planning the rest of your studying.

Besides, by taking practice tests, you will get to know the test format, experience the types of tasks you will be asked to undertake, and build your confidence and stamina needed for success on the test day.

Comprised of all previously administered questions, you can be sure that our HSK practice tests are similar to the real exam. So, get the most out of these materials as you prepare for your test.

Advice: to get the most realistic HSK test experience, time yourself as you take each section of the practice test.

From our experience with thousands of students, we recommend taking a series of three practice tests throughout your preparation process.  

Typically, you need to have 2-3 months to study for the HSK exam. Some students might need even longer. You should take the first HSK practice test before your preparation to establish a starting point. Based on the result, you can create an HSK study plan and brush on the areas in which you need help. The second test is good to use as a question bank for content studying. It helps you get used to the different questions types and also makes you better at time management. Take your last practice test 7-10 days before your test date to measure your improvements and see if you’re ready for the real exam.

If you want to take more than three practice tests, go ahead and try it out – just make sure that you balance your preparation with some focused studying on your weaknesses so that you can make faster progress.

HSK emphasizes integrative Chinese skills and using multiple skills at a time to answer a question. 

HSK 1 and HSK 2 are designed for basic learners. The tests consist of only two sections: listening and reading. Each section is broken down into a number of questions that are presented in both Pinyin and Chinese characters. There is no writing section.

HSK 3, HSK 4, HSK 5, and HSK 6 are designed for more advanced learners. The tests are comprised of three sections: listening, reading, and writing. All questions are presented only in Chinese characters. 

On HSK 1 and HSK 2, each section receives a score from 0 to 100. The scores of the two sections are then added together for a final, total score of 200 points, and you need to score at least 120 to pass the tests.

On HSK 3, HSK 4, HSK 5, and HSK 6, each section is scored out of 100 points and then combined for a total score of 300. To pass the tests, you need to score at least 180.

To put it simply, any HSK level that enables to you do what you wish to do in Chinese can be considered good. For instance, if your objective is to be able to get around in China using simple Chinese, HSK 3 is good for you. If you want to get the feeling of freedom when speaking Chinese, then you should aim for HSK 5. (Read here for more details on HSK levels)

To pass an HSK test, you just need to reach the corresponding passing score – that’s all that matters. However, if you’re taking the HSK test as part of the application to Chinese universities, pay attention to the HSK requirement for your specific school – many schools provide a minimum cutoff score you must attain on the test for consideration. Essentially, a good HSK score can be considered anything equal to or higher than the minimum required score for your program.

(Usually, something between HSK 5 and HSK 6 is required to get admitted to a university in China. You can look up the HSK requirements for major Chinese universities here.)

The HSK test fees will depend on the level and the location of your testing center. Generally, you can expect to pay around 20-100 US dollars every time you take the official HSK test. The price for taking the HSK in China starts from 150 CNY (HSK 1) and increases by 100 CNY for each level. For example, HSK 5 would cost 550 CNY.

Quick note: it’s easy to overestimate your abilities and fail the test, especially when you’re aiming high. Make sure you are ready for the official exam by taking our free HSK sample practice tests!
