If you’re preparing for the HSK 3-6 exams, here’s news you can’t ignore: the HSK Speaking Test is now mandatory for most test-takers worldwide. To help you ace it, the official HSK Mock Platform has launched a realistic speaking simulator—and we’ll break down exactly how to use it effectively.

What Is the HSK Speaking Test?

The HSK Speaking Test evaluates your ability to communicate in real-life Chinese scenarios. It’s divided into three levels:

  • Beginner (HSK 3): Repeat sentences, answer questions.

  • Intermediate (HSK 4): Describe pictures, read short texts.

  • Advanced (HSK 5-6): Summarize content, debate topics.

You’ll be graded on fluency, pronunciation, and clarity. A score of 60/100 or higher is required to pass, and results are valid for 2 years.

Why the Speaking Test Matters More Than Ever

Previously, HSK focused only on reading, writing, and listening. Now, speaking is compulsory for HSK 3-6 candidates. This means:

  • You must prepare for both written and oral exams to earn your HSK certificate.

  • Strong speaking skills are critical for university admissions, jobs, or visas in China.
