I did a 2018 practice test for HSK level 3 today. I got 75 out of 80 questions right, so I was quite pleased. When I finished the test I went over it again, listening to the audio and looking at the answers to see where I went wrong. I’m understanding more and more in the listening section, so I’m quite pleased with my progress.

After that, I did two chapters of reading aloud from my HSK vocabulary book. Some of the sentences are tricky, and way above the level of the words they are teaching, but I’m plodding on. I also did around 15 minutes listening to the vocabulary book in my car. All in all, it was a good day.

Total study time: 2 hours 30 minutes – Practice test: 2 hours, reading aloud: 15 minutes, listening: 15 minutes
