The mysterious new HSK 7-9 level (the SUPER exams) that everyone has been talking about for two years, but nobody ever actually saw, are supposed to be starting on the 26th of November. Apparently there is a mock exam too a few weeks beforehand to try it out.
Can sign up on the link below. Anyone going to give it a try? If yes, let us know!
We updated our article to give a full rundown on everything we know so far.
Some key facts:
FOR STUDENTS IN CHINA | You can visit this link to register for the new HSK exam.
FOR STUDENTS OUTSIDE OF CHINA | Overseas students need to contact their local test centre to register and pay offline. At present, South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and South Africa can take the new HSK exam. Cross border registration is not allowed.

Did the content of HSKK change as well? The FAQ doesn’t really answer that, other than saying it is now mandatory.
Also, is there a list of source languages for the translation/interpreting exam? I’m wondering if speakers of minority languages will be disadvantaged.
We don’t know @Ben-Mandarin-HSK_5 - we just publish what we see from the HSK and Hanban which is typically opaque.
I’d imagine there will be changes if I’m guessing but don’t quote me on that.
Soon as we know, we’ll inform
Will there be HSK 7-9 flexiclasses too?
We are currently working on HSK 6 Flexi Classes and will continue from there.
What’s your current level? HSK 7-9 are going to be very high
Bringing back this topic… Any plan to make HSK 7-9 Flexiclasses? Could be relevant to those who would like to study Mandarin all the way to the highest levels of HSK.
@Max We will work on HSK7 and upper level if there is high demand from students.
@all For those who aim for that high level, please comment on your current level, and if you have some topics in mind that you wish to learn at the HSK7 level, please don’t hesitate to suggest them so our academic team can work on them to tailor the content.
@Thierry-Mandarin_Simplified_HS Flexi Classes materials are designed for communication skills, not test preparation. Although many students said that they know many words on the HSK test because they learned them in Flexi Classes, we can’t guarantee that our materials are enough to prepare for the HSK test.
@Ha_Nguyen as you mentioned, many students said that they know many words on the HSK test because they learned them in Flexi Classes. So HSK7+ Flexi Classes materials could still be very relevant (albeit not sufficient) for learners of HSK7-9 .
Yes, we will note this down for future curriculum development.
at my current pace, HSK7+ will be fantastic for me in the year ~2028 lol
as a workaround, I think advanced vocab can be built into the free speaking classes pretty easily.
In 2028 you’ll be glad you kept going 
Has anyone actually studied content for the HSK7, 8 or 9 yet? Interested to hear how it is.
