Why You Should Study with TOPIK Past Papers

Study Tips
Here’s how I recommend you use past exams:
- Print out the test! Especially if you're taking the paper based version (PBT).
- Try it under real test conditions, Use a timer!
- Go back and solve the same questions 2–3 times to reinforce what you learned.
- Focus on understanding why you got something wrong not just getting the answer.
- Check and highlight any unknown words or grammar and Study!
This method works. I’ve seen students improve a lot just by following these steps consistently.
Good luck with your TOPIK study!
