how long would you say it takes to learn enough Mandarin to pass HSK1, HSK2, and HSK3? I want to take the test to show colleges that I am interested in learning, and then go my own pace to one day become fluent and take the HSK6. I really love language learning and I taught myself most of the Spanish language, however my family does speak Spanish so I was exposed to the language a lot.
Hi Julia, this really depends how much time you learn per day. Let's take a base example - our Semester programs (ltl-school.com/semester-china/ - 4 hours of class per day). Generally after 18 weeks most students can pass HSK3. For HSK 1 you can get this done comfortably in a month and HSK 2 in 2-3 months. Do remember though, this really depends on consistent, intensive study. Hope that helps :) LTL
I am learning Mandarin Chinese now. I just started my Chinese Language career. I am trying to decide which one to take HSK 2 or 3. My professor said HSK 2 or 3 would be my range.
@@thalblankson4002 The price is really dependant on your length of course/accommodation and type of course. Take a look at some of our group courses here if it helps :) - ltl-school.com/learn-chinese-in-china/

Great video Max, I'm a new sub! I have a quick question: When you say, for example the HSK 6 requires you to understand 5,000 words, is that 5,000 new words or is that together with the cumulative amount from HSK 1-4? Keep up the great work!
Hi Gav, welcome to the channel, hope you enjoy our content. HSK 6 requires 5,000 words in total, double HSK 5 (2,500). Typically the jump between each level is double HSK 1 to 2 is 150 to 300 HSK 2 to 3 is 300 to 600 and so forth. This means that the jump between HSK 1 to 2 is the easiest and quicket to make, with HSK 5 to 6 being the hardest. Hope this helps.
@@LTLChinese okay I checked the site and apparently I have to do this HSK 1 test one more time by booking a real time to do this this test right ? I thought the test from the book could make a proof of certification
You can purchase the HSK books from all kinds of websites online Cirrus. Amazon have them for example, if you Google "Buy HSK Standard Course Books" - you'll have plenty of options :) Hope this helps

Hi there. This will depend where you are but the best way to do this is buy online. For example if you go to jd.com you can search HSK books (search.jd.com/Search?keyword=hsk%E6%A0%87%E5%87%86%E6%95%99%E7%A8%8B&enc=utf-8&suggest=1.def.0.0&wq=HSK&pvid=04218d94b5e0414fbd3fc25fc4f39e3c&SID=0080550d60d102e07f0a505606b0920010700190030f1076).

Your background helps, but it entirely depends on how much time you dedicate to this. Are you studying full-time or part-time? Are you making Chinese friends in your spare time? How often are you exposing yourself to Mandarin? There is no one simple answer to this question. Students at LTL can reach HSK 4 within 9-12 months typically. They are studying between 20-30 hours a week.
@@LTLChinese I see, thanks for the insight, I've learned a few other languages so I know that the process is highly depedent on multiple factors, but I wanted to get an average timeframe to work off of, thank you.
Hi Daniel, congrats on the GCSE by the way. It's really difficult for us to say but as a very rough barometer I'd say HSK3-4. Why don't you take this Vocab test at HSK 3 level we have - ltl-school.com/test/hsk-3-vocabulary-test/ If might give you a better idea where you are at. Post us your score, and we'll see if we can pin your level down further. LTL

Thanks a ton, very good knowledge for even people not interested in learning Chinese.
So nice of you, thanks a lot.
I love the video. New subbie. I live in South Africa, and in HSK1 and HSK2, we have both characters and also pinyin. Keep up the good work.
Really glad you like the video and even happier you've subscribed! We'll keep up the good content, and 加油 with the HSK

We have to practice writing chinese for HSK1 also ?? Is there any possibility to pass the exam only to work on speaking .. ?
You can take the computer exam which doesn't require handwriting.
Is HSK Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese? Thank you
It's in Simplified Chinese
Traditional is better in my opinion :(
@@footbalforlife2523 Less people speak / read traditional

That's the problem. HSK 4 doesn't really equal B2. In the New HSK it will be more aligned > ua-cam.com/video/DNlEYEiouqI/v-deo.html
What is haych? As of in haych sk. Never heard of it. 🤪
🤷🏼♂️
So if you wanna just be fluent and cominicate well hsk4 is enough ?
HSK4 will definitely make you fluent enough to have a deep conversation.
