For grade 5 ~ grade 6 : TOPIK Learning Methods and Vocabulary Books
It's not hard to get 5 grade ~ 6 grade on TOPIK. It takes some time and patience, but if you take proper measures, you will be fine. Now, I will introduce you to the specific learning methods and Korean vocabulary book you will need.

 

Learning methods for TOPIK

TOPIK consists of 읽기(Reading)、듣기(Listening)、쓰기(Writing), with a total score of 300. Please refer to the articles below regarding the content required for preparing TOPIK.

 

More than 85 points If you just do this. Prepare for TOPIK 읽기 (Reading)
The countermeasure for TOPIK 읽기 (Reading) is to memorize Sino-Korean words, but there are many other methods, so I will share them.

 

More than 85 points If you just do this. Prepare for TOPIK 듣기 (Listening)
Just like reading(읽기), listening(듣기) is easy to prepare for. Basically, it is ok that you just only practice the past TOPIK Listening (듣기) questions over and over.

 

More than 85 points If you just do this. Prepare for TOPIK 쓰기 (Writing)
You can master and use templates, many Korean words and expressions, but your score will not increase because TOPIK  쓰기(Writing) evaluates whether natural Korean is used rather than Korean words and expressions, and above all, sentence structure and consistency.

 

Korean vocabulary books for grade 6 250+

TOPIKIII Required Words 6200

 

TOPIKIII Required Words 6200 will be a Korean vocabulary book to completely supplement words not found in TOPIK Level 5, Level 6 Advanced Vocabulary 800 and Korean Word Speed master Kanji Language 3300. It’s a lot, but if you memorize more than 90% of the vocabulary books mentioned above, you will not spend much time. If you memorize the words in this vocabulary book, you will be able to understand most of the words that appear in TOPIK, and that means you will be able to take 250 points.

The content is simple and easy to read, but you need to be patient because of the large amount of words.

 

10,000 Korean words of everyday life


10,000 Korean words of everyday life is not for TOPIK. I don’t memorize all the words in this book yet, but I think it’s more like a dictionary than a vocabulary book. It takes a long time to memorize all the words in this book, and there are not many words related to TOPIK, so I personally look at them when I have time. Like the title of this book, there are many words related to living, especially nouns. It’s not suitable for TOPIK, but it’s recommended for those who want to memorize a lot of Korean words, but before you buy this book, you should memorize 90% of the three vocabulary books before you buy it.

 

Extra part : Recommended reference books for TOPIK 쓰기(Writing) and 문법(Grammar)

In order to get a score of grade 6 250+, it is an absolute prerequisite to memorize Korean vocabulary book required for grade 6 250+, but it is meaningless if it is not properly expressed. The reference book below is an excellent reference books. If you want to expand your Korean expression and understand the detailed differences, I recommend the following two reference books.

 

TOPIK II Essay Complete Measures for Korean Language Proficiency Test


Essays are especially difficult to get score. It depends on the difficulty of the test, but the average score of the overall 쓰기 was around 30 out of 100, which seems to show the difficulty of 쓰기.

My first TOPIK test score was 21 points. I thought it was pretty good, but I was shocked. So I bought TOPIK II Essay Complete Measures for Korean Language Proficiency Test to find out what elements I need to write an essay on.

This book explains how TOPIK 쓰기 is graded, and it contains the know-how, templates, and expressions necessary to actually write an essay, so it was very effective in dealing with TOPIK 쓰기. I finished reading this book, practiced writing essays, and got 66 points in the next TOPIK exam. If you want to capture 쓰기 firmly, I recommend this book.

 

Complete master Korean grammar for beginners to advanced with CD

 

Complete master Korean grammar for beginners to advanced with CD, which you can learn from beginner to advanced level, is as the title suggests. This book covers grammar from beginner to advanced level. I recommend this book to those who want to learn Korean grammar, but you don’t need to memorize all of the grammar in this book because, as with TOPIK level 6, you only need to memorize the grammar from beginner to intermediate level to get a high score. In TOPIK, the logic and consistency of essays are evaluated first, and words and grammar come second. If you use simple grammar, you will be able to get a better score. Rather than memorizing grammar, it’s enough to think that there are grammar like this.

 

In the end

I gave you the information. The rest depends on your efforts. This is my personal wish, please find out why you want to study Korean and how you want to use it in the future.

With Korean drama,K-POP and conversation, you can take measures in a short period of time, but TOPIK takes time more than one year. It depends on your Korean ability, but it takes a lot of effort and patience to prepare for TOPIK while working or doing other things.

So, depending on the goal, I would like you to examine how much Korean is necessary for you. Have a fun Korean life ( ̄∇ ̄)
