How hard is the TOPIK test for Koreans? [Happy Together/2020.03.19]

[@sunshinedaxmcgee8862]

The TOPIK has definitely been the most difficult exam I've taken.

[@VoVina111]

😰😰 How long had you studied korean before you took it?

[@lolzpro123]

For me, because of my scholarship, i only need to learn korean in 1 year. The class schedule was very packed and it will challenge you mentally and physically. The class start about 9.30 am and sometime end at 5.30 pm

[@arymismiz]

Agreed. I have taken TOPIK three times and IELTS once but the TOPIK test still terrifies me.

[@VoVina111]

@@arymismiz can I ask, how long have you been studying Korean?

[@kiler12827]

Really?😂

[@xiahluns2405]

I'm currently enrolled to a class taking the TOPIK exam. I'm not that smart. Even koreans find it hard, then how am i suppose to pass this. *cries in hangul*

[@memeking8734]

koreans dont find it hard tho

[@benzeybeth]

I know right 😭

[@ayeshasyed6136]

From where you're taking classes for this Exam?

[@namhophuong7682]

I think the Korean native speakers they don't really familiar with TOPIK format, if they spend time to know how the format is shaped they will do the test absolutely well, at least band 5, no hell reason they do the test worse than foreigners

[@marajoya8724]

The only thing I’ve learned is that standardized tests are a waste of time

[@notrelevant9939]

Mara Joya not really, they look good on your resume

[@Nevio857]

@@notrelevant9939 They don't matter. That's why TOPIK is valid only for two years. It's sometimes mandatory if you want to study at the university, but most job interviews don't ask for them. I am a polyglot fluent in 6 languages and a linguist, I barely ever had to show my certificates.

[@ChanChanChan-g6u]

Every structured/ standardized thing is a waste of time if you think grades could reflect how good you are. In really we know someone is fluent without knowing their grades. But using them as a tool could be very helpful.

[@NikoruNinja]

I took TOPIK II 3.5 years ago without really studying and got level 4...I'm hoping now with a bit of work I could get level 6 but sometimes the answers to the Qs are sooo confusing I swear 😂

[@adzhaniadhari]

They should try the Topik 5~6급 :')

[@AromE_Studio]

they will die

[@studykoreanwithme9535]

I'm a Korean but I live abroad. So I have to take the test. It's kind of hard for me too.

I have 5 months for prepare myself for TOPIK 4금 due my university schoolarship and it scares me a lot. ( Need to take TOPIK I and TOPIK II because my grades of TOPIK I expired)

[@nicoleraheem1195]

2:40 this is our way of getting back at them 😭😂😂😂 My chinese friend said this to me when it was my turn to speak in only Chinese as a A1 Student lol 😂😂😂😂😂👏🏾 because he could only speak in the basic English It was so funny 🤣

[@marksgiggle8895]

The TOPIK questions they gave in this are from TOPIK I which is way easier than TOPIK II. TOPIK II is so much harder..I'm gonna try it and see if I can get at least a level 4

[@Thatgirlbri223]

He said is the tape stretched me because I be ready to fall asleep 😂

[@madonnayoussef8943]

One of the things that I can't believe that I did was having topik 5 🤣 my talking ability isn't good and people are amazed by the exam's results 😬
