About this simulation
A full HSK 3 paper, rebuilt to the official HSK 3.0 blueprint. Same sections, same order, same clock.
Listening plays a fixed number of times and never rewinds. Sections run one way, so once you submit one you are done with it. The open writing is read and marked by AI, and your result is scored against the 180 / 300 to pass line.

How you are scored
Listening, Reading, and the character-writing task are marked the moment you finish, for free. Open writing is where a score is genuinely hard to judge on your own, so that is what the AI marks: for every sentence, what is wrong, why, and a fixed version. That is the paid unlock.
Your answers are saved with your account either way. Grading is a separate step from sitting the paper, so an exam you sit today can be graded whenever you subscribe — and each paper is graded once, so the marks you get are final.
Your result comes back as a band against the 180 / 300 to pass line.
