How you want to sit it Exam conditionsThe recording runs on its own and plays 1 time(s). No replay, clock running — as on the day. PracticeReplay any recording as often as you like. The clock still runs, so you can see where the time goes. Short practiceThe paper is cut into blocks of about five minutes. Answer a block, see what you got right straight away, then carry on. Short blocks, one skillPick one skill and sit only that section, cut into blocks shorter than the five-minute ones. Each block is marked as soon as you finish it.

Each section is scaled to 100, the way HSK reports it. The real exam equates scores against the whole cohort, so treat this as a close estimate rather than an official band. Writing is not machine-marked — you compare your answer against the model one.
