About Chinese HSK3
HSK 3 is the intermediate tier — 300 vocabulary words and the grammar needed to express opinions, describe experiences, and discuss abstract topics. HSK 3 is roughly equivalent to B1 in CEFR: by the end you can hold a fluent conversation on most everyday topics, read short Chinese news articles, and write 200-character pieces on familiar subjects.
How to learn Chinese HSK3
HSK 3 takes 3-6 months on top of HSK 2. Continue reviewing HSK 1 and HSK 2 (5-minute daily) and add 50-100 new HSK 3 words per week. Start consuming native Chinese content — TV shows with subtitles, podcasts, news articles — and try writing short pieces (200-500 characters) for correction. By the end of HSK 3 you should be able to follow a Chinese conversation at natural speed and express nuanced opinions.
