Hi. I took HSK 5 last year. I didn't attend any HSK intensive course, though I did lots of mock papers.

Sorry if you have already known this, in case you don't know, it may help:
http://www.chinesetest.cn/godownload.do

Besides, I bought some materials which include not only answers but also explanations.

You may try this bookshop:
Union Book Co Pte Ltd
Blk 231 Bain Street, #03-01/59, Bras Basah Complex (S)180231
Tel: 63367237
Opening Hours: 10:30-6:30 (better check before you go, it might changed)

When I took Level 5 exam last year, I felt that the listening part are much faster than the past exam collections which I downloaded from the Official website.

Sorry if this is not the info you are looking for, but I think if you are already at this level, it may not necessary to take a course.

Hi thanks a lot.

Yeah sure I can get myself those books. But where in SIngapore can I go to actually take the HSK 5 and 6 exams and get a certificate?

I'm thinking of applying to CHinese universities and they require proof of competency in Mandarin.

Oh, I thought you were looking for a place to study for HSK. Did I misread your question?

I took the exam in my country, not in Singapore. Anyway, you can call to HSK Centre (Crestar) to ask about it.

587 Upper Serangoon Road, Crestar Building (A) 534564

Hi friend,

I happened saw your post and just wonder if you are looking for any mandarin tutor coz I am a Chinese native speaker while a Certified HSK trainer with experiences in both English and Chinese speaking teaching environment.
HSK demands a lot in practice, especially listening and speaking. Please do not hesitate to contact me via email: [email protected] should you need any support.
Hope to hear from you and all the best.
