Clarabelle Posted November 2, 2017 at 02:38 PM Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 at 02:38 PM Just wondering what is the highest score you have heard of for someone doing HSK 6 and what scores did you get yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley Posted November 2, 2017 at 05:29 PM Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 at 05:29 PM What was your score? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarabelle Posted November 2, 2017 at 05:37 PM Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 at 05:37 PM LOL! I'm a very long way away from doing HSK 6! I was just feeling nosey (and bored) when I should have been studying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angelina Posted November 3, 2017 at 05:46 AM Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 at 05:46 AM I am planning to take the HSK 6 again. Probably December 3 2017, one month from today. Anyone else interested? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
艾墨本 Posted November 3, 2017 at 06:16 AM Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 at 06:16 AM I'll be taking it in February. I am signed up for the one at the end of November but am putting it off so that I can study during winter break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dtcamero Posted November 5, 2017 at 02:43 AM Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 at 02:43 AM what are the scores out of...? what is the pass/fail threshold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edelweis Posted November 5, 2017 at 06:10 PM Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 at 06:10 PM For HSK6, 100 possible points for each part (listening/reading/writing). There isn't an official passing threshold anymore, but previously it was 180/300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edelweis Posted November 5, 2017 at 08:48 PM Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 at 08:48 PM The universities get to decide what score they require for their various programs. Long explanation here http://www.chinesetest.cn/gonewcontent.do?id=8750536 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley Posted November 5, 2017 at 09:55 PM Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 at 09:55 PM Oh, ok. Do the students get to know what they are aiming for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtcamero Posted November 5, 2017 at 10:23 PM Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 at 10:23 PM if it's like the japanese jlpt then they grade it on a bell distribution curve... which is probably fairer as tests' difficulty varies from year to year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edelweis Posted November 6, 2017 at 06:55 AM Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 at 06:55 AM Some universities seem to have clear requirements, for instance Fudan's pharmacology doctoral program: Quote Entry Requirements Non-Chinese citizens with good health Master degree holder HSK 5 above 240 or HSK 6 above 180 received with two years (according to CUCAS) The old HSK used to be graded on a bell curve. My understanding is that in the new HSK the listening and reading parts (客观题) grades are proportional to the number of questions you answer correctly. At least that's what they say here: http://www.chinesetest.cn/userfiles/file/HSK-pingfen.pdf (although they take care to add that this information is for self-evaluation, leaving the actual grading method a mystery) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edelweis Posted November 6, 2017 at 01:30 PM Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 at 01:30 PM presumably they mean within two years (official validity duration of the hsk score for university admission purposes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bao Posted November 7, 2017 at 02:29 AM Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 at 02:29 AM I got a 221 this year after studying Chinese for an embarrassingly long amount of time (three years in high school and...every year since then) Good to know different unis have different HSK standards, that will make the search for grad school in China even more...interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

陳德聰 Posted November 29, 2017 at 06:44 PM Report Share Posted November 29, 2017 at 06:44 PM @RogerGe Do you mind if I ask why you took 4, 5 and 6 within such close proximity to each other? @Bao Do you mind if I ask what breakdown of points you had for listening/reading/writing?
