HSK 4 mock tests — 5 papers

Full-length HSK 4 mock tests in PDF format. Each test follows the official HSK 4 format (listening + reading + writing) and takes about 90–140 minutes. Download and print, or do them on screen with a timer.

How to use: take a mock test only after you've mastered the HSK 4 vocabulary. Set a timer, do the full test without breaks, then review every wrong answer. Aim for 80%+ on 2–3 mock tests before booking the real exam.

HSK 4 study plan

  1. Master the vocabulary. Use our HSK 4 flashcards with native audio. Aim to recognize all 1200 words before doing mock tests.
  2. Read the textbook. Download the HSK 4 Standard Course PDF above. Work through each chapter — the dialogues and reading passages show how words are used in context.
  3. Take mock tests. Do at least 2 of the 5 mock tests above under timed conditions. Review every mistake.
  4. Practice listening. Use our HSK 4 listening practice — the listening section is where most learners lose points.
