According to this new timetable, I think that it will become more difficult for time management. In the old topik format, in the first period, I often make use of time by doing the vocabulary/grammar and 10 multiple choices of the writing part in 20 minutes, which means I have 70 minutes left for the short answers and the essay. In the second period, during the listening part, the recording plays twice and there is a short break between each question, so I make use of those time by doing the multiple choice of the reading part. However, now I cannot make use of time like that any more. In the first period of the new topik exam, we have to do listening and writing in 110 minutes. I cannot make use the short break between each listening questions to write. And in the 2nd period, I have 70 minutes for 50 reading questions. short hairstyles =.=
For the sake of people who don’t have much experience in learning Korean, we make the Topik I(Beginner) easy to reduce their burden. For the sake of people short hairstyles who continue to learn Korean , we make the Topik II which combines Intermediate and Advanced level to foster their ability and also to evalute their Korean proficiency.
Secondly, we also solve some problems such as examination subjects, type of questions, failing system. With the main aims to evaluate the communication skill, the writing section together with other indirect methods will test the ablitiy to write essays directly.
Answer: The Topik exam aims to test your communication skill of Korean. To evaluate those skills, short hairstyles we need to evaluate speaking, listening, reading and writing skill, but evaluating skill has some limitations, so we only test the listening, reading and writing skill.
Answer: There are 4 writing short hairstyles questions in the Topik II (Intermediate- Advanced). The first and second questions require the sentences that match the flow of the text. The third and fourth short hairstyles questions require two essays related to social life or critical thinking.
Answer : After setting the questions for the new Topik exams, we will set the criteria for passing each level. In the new Topik, maybe the minimum passing short hairstyles score for TOPIK I (Beginner) will be 100 out of 200 and for TOPIK II (Intermediate- Advanced) will be 120 out of 300.
Like short hairstyles this:
So basically, if you’re new to Korean, “Oh come, come we have an easy test to encourage you to study Korean,” but if you’re in it for the long run, “Oh, you’re actually serious. Okay men, bring out the heavy artillery!”
If the questions themselves are slightly easier, then maybe we’ll be able to manage our time well, but if not, we’ll have to become time lords, be strong in writing essays on critical thinking and society, and prepare a hefty side order of speaking skills… Okay, we got this! /runs/ short hairstyles ﾟﾟ(つД ) ﾟ

Did you use TOPIK 빈도별 문법 book to prepare for TOPIK? What do you think of it compare to Korean Grammar in Use or Korean Grammar Practice for Foreigners? Maybe someday you’ll have time to blog a review? short hairstyles Thank you. ^^
I use the TOPIK 빈도별 문법 book too. I just use that book to review the grammar points after studying “Topik grammar 150″. I don’t like “빈도별 문법 ” very much. First, it is written totally in Korean. Secondly, I don’t like the way they arrange the grammar points according to the frequency of appearing short hairstyles in the Topik test. I prefer grouping the grammar points according to the same usage and knowing how to distinguish the grammar points that have nearly the same usage.
Somehow making the beginner TOPIK easier is not something I actually ‘appreciate’ hehe I want the burden to make me work harder and achieve more! XD but I guess maybe the Intermediate-Advanced will be the one that is best to take if you are in it for the long hall ^^ I am seriously glad they will think about adding a speaking skill. That is wonderful. And thanks for taking the time to post this
Thank you for your comment. I think they just want to attract more people into studying Korean and challenge the intermediate-advanced level, but I don’t agree when they eliminate the vocabulary-grammar part
