HSK Exam in Chinese is Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (汉语水平考试) literally meaning “Mandarin Level Test”. It is organized by Hanban (汉办) the part of the Chinese education ministry also in charge of the Confucius Institutes (孔子学院). The HSK Exam is administered by testing centres around the world, including private language schools, universities and Confucius institutes. Exam questions and dates are the same everywhere in the world, however not all testing centres choose to offer the HSK test every month. Many students wish to take a HSK Exam in China for a number of reasons which range from finding their current level of Chinese, achieving a personal goal, or for future career progression.

Is this test the same as the real exam?

Not at all. This test is simply a HSK 2 vocabulary test. Meaning all it does is test your knowledge of the vocabulary used in the exam. Check out our HSK Online Course and see how you can get connected with an incredible Chinese teacher today! To pass the HSK 2, you will need 60% or higher. By the time you finish this test, you’ll know just how much of the vocab you have! Of course, a pass here doesn’t guarantee a pass in the real thing. The vocabulary tests on our website are intended only to build your confidence!

Can I pass the HSK 6 in one year?

Although this will require a lot of hard work, time spent in class and determination, yes it is possible. Some of our students did it ! Mastering a new language in such as short period of time is NOT easy, let's be honest. But it doesn't mean impossible. Surround yourself with great teachers , and make sure to receive proper education from an established school so you don't waste your time, or money. Progress will be fast at first and slow down in the higher levels, but that's completely normal. Keep your motivation going and you'll be able to reach any goals you set yourself.

Where to buy the HSK books?

The books are available on Amazon. You can find links to all of them through our students' essentials blog article here , along with other Chinese learning products.
