Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, known as HSK, is a standardized test designed and developed by the State HSK Commission under the Chinese Ministry of Education to assess Chinese language proficiency.
The new Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) consists of two independent tests: a written test and an oral test. The written test offers six levels of difficulty ranging from HSK Level 1 through HSK Level 6. The oral test offers three levels: elementary, intermediate, and advanced.
