HSKHSK - Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (汉语水平考试 )

HSK is divided into three categories:

  • Beginning level - HSK Basic (Level 1, 2, 3)
  • Elementary to intermediate level - Elementary (Level 3 - overlaps Basic Level 3, Level 4, 5); Intermediate (Level 6, 7, 8)
  • Advanced level - HSK Advanced (Level 9, 10, 11)

HSK is held regularly in China and in other countries each year and HSK certificates are issued to those who have successfully demonstrated mastery of HSK standards of Chinese proficiency.

All tests are designed by experts at HSK headquarters located in Beijing, China and all tests are scored at the HSK office in Beijing.

The final results will then be sent back to the PCC/HSK test centers, where they will be distributed to examinees within 90 days of the test date. After this period, score reports and certificates will be available for pick-up or mailed directly to examinees.
