How s regester for the test
ReplyDeleteYou have to go to kiiptest.org, but you need to go from the socinet website first so that it connects your login to the kiip test website.
Deletehelp.im always stuck in step 3,everytime i click the test location nothings appear,i failed the test for the 3rd time just because of i cant finish the step 4,i always stuck in step 3,what should i do?im stuck with step 3 for whole 2019,last pre test will be on december 28 again,and at the moment im still trying to get out of step 3,
DeleteDo you have any information on when the registration day is for the next semester (starting May 19th?). I cannot find this info anywhere and socinet has not helped either.
ReplyDeleteI don't need a level test, I've already completed through level 3 so I was wondering which day/how to register for the level 4 class. Last time I had a friend tell me when since I could find the info anywhere, but they aren't around anymore to help out.
DeleteTo apply for the next level class, you need to check the closest level test date. The upcoming one is in 27 April and result announcement date is 10 May. So, you can apply for the level 4 class at ~10 May. Make sure to check socinet website frequently at that time.
DeleteThanks so much! It's good to know that the registration day is near/on the day of the announcement. This was extremely helpful, thank you!
DeleteHow do I apply for taking classes? I have valid Topik 4. The website isn't showing clearly on how and where to register if you have level 4 Topik. Thank you in advance.
ReplyDeleteVisit your nearest immigration office to submit your TOPIK certificate.
DeleteFor more info, please post your question at this community. I believe many people there have done the same thing like you before. https://www.facebook.com/groups/korean4topik/?ref=bookmarks
Or call 1345 for support.
I am in masan area and i like to study kiip level 4 .in chungchangnamdo area i have already study and could not pass level 4 so i want to repeat.can you help me to find class where i can join every sunday in khyangaangnamdo.
ReplyDeleteI am registered to the socisnet website but I cannot login to the test website. It says that there is no such profile
ReplyDeleteplease ask for support at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/korean4topik/?ref=bookmarks
DeleteYou have to go from the socinet website to the test site and it will then connect those two together. You can also join the Unofficial Kiip group on Facebook
DeleteHow long does it take level test results?
ReplyDeleteWhen start the winter holiddays in kiip clasis . I mean how many winter holidays ?
ReplyDeleteWinter season is very lovely
ReplyDelete我在大學的語學堂已經學了4级的課程，如果我帶着這學校的證書或成績表來報讀你們的課程可以免試分班考試嗎？
ReplyDeleteHello I live DAEJEON where I can pass the pre-test, the site fails. Is it possible to register for a test at the place of passing the test?
ReplyDeleteI would like to take a KIIP pretest around March or April. The thing is, I do not work or do schooling on Saturdays for religious reasons. Are the tests and pre-tests ever offered on a non-Saturday date?
ReplyDeleteHello I want to join the kiip class how can I join anybody can help me ?
ReplyDeleteHow to apply kllp exam form
ReplyDeleteIf I take a kiip level test in one location, will I have to attend classes in that particular location or can I attend classes in another location?
ReplyDeleteHi. Two days ago the page said that the registration period for the class starts in feb.2. But just minutes ago when I checked it already said jan.28 and it is already 신청마감. I was waiting for it to open on the said date so I could register. BUT now I can't. What am I supposed to do. I am running out of time already and I really need to join the class. Can you please help me? I don't know what to do. I am in Daegu and my pretest result showed level 4. Please...
ReplyDeleteHello, I have not taken any level so far but I have TOPIK level 5. I heard that I can take level 5 without even taking pre-test, is it correct? If correct how should I register for that?
ReplyDeletemy exam date in 9/20.I got a uncompleted information date changed it is true or not? if the information was then when was the changed date test?
ReplyDeletehow can i apply for my kiip class i try lots of time i never find plz if anybody knows teach me thank yoou in advance
ReplyDelete+ You can retake the test again and again until your score is above 60 points without retaking the 2nd class,
ReplyDelete-- don't we need to score at least 50-59pts to be able to do this?
The rules were changed so it depends on what level you are. As for myself, I finished the Kiip program last year before the changes and then they changed it again this summer, so I am uncertain what the new score requirements are. I thought I read that if you fail the first time, no matter the score, you can now pass the second time with at least a 50. I remember being upset because I took the level 5 exam 4 times and the second time I failed by 1 point, third time 4 points, and fourth time 5 points. I only "Completed" the program, but I didn't "Pass" so I really hope that everyone else will get completed like I did if they complete the levels that way or I will try to take that darn test again.
DeleteIf I take the level 5 70h and fail the exam, can I re-take the level 5 20h and score 40 points or more on the exam to pass or I need to re-take the level 50h?
ReplyDeleteDear Sir/Ms.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm failure 2 time in Kiip level 4 exam and can't get 40% Score for level 5
So
How can jump in level 5 in 2021 ?
Just retake the test again until you get equal or above 40.
DeleteKiip level 4 auto pass option have in 2021 or not ?
ReplyDeleteOr must we have to pass exams?
Auto-pass ended last year. It is no longer in effect now. You have to pass over 40 point.
DeleteWhat if i fail level 5 exam ?should i retake exam or i must take 50hrs class again please help me.
ReplyDeleteThere are 2 options:
Delete1. Retake the exam without taking the class again. If you pass over 60 points, you get the completion certificate + passing certificate
2. Retake the class once and then retake the test again. If you pass over 40 points, you get the completion certificate. The certificate is enough to get bonus point when applying for visa.
Thank you so much for your kind reply.Wanna know if i am not satisfied with pass marka (eg=64-65)can i take test again? Thank you again
DeleteOnce you pass the test, you can't take it again.
DeleteHello For 귀화융 exam in case one complete with second try and score 40 points will still have to go for naturalization interview ?
ReplyDeleteplease post question in our KIIP support group.
Deletehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/korean4topik/?ref=bookmarks
hi i want to ask something aince i took the level 4 exam twice but failed and the 3rd exam take is nextweek do i need to enter 2nd class again to get the certification so i can eneter the level 5?
ReplyDeleteNo, retaking the level 4 class won't help you pass the level 4. All you need is to get higher 40 points in the upcoming exam.
DeleteAre you sure that is correct? I was told for lvl 4 & 5 you have to take a class then test. If you fail then you should take the class again and test. If you fail the second time you can just keep taking the test without the class, but those first two test must have a class between them
DeleteSorry. It's my mistake for not reading your comment fully. You're correct. You have to retake the class 2nd time to advance the level 5 with 40+ point. Otherwise, you have to pass the upcoming test with 60+ point.
DeleteDo you have to keep taking the class after a second time? Then the test? Or is it taking the class 2 times maximum?
DeleteAfter the 2nd time, you just need to take the test. No need to keep taking again.
DeleteHow can i take a level test again? My status in kiip is Completion suspended.
ReplyDeleteHi., I am going to start KIIP program from Level "0". When will be next date of registration? and How can I join "Level 0"?
ReplyDeleteKIIP has 3 semesters per year. The 3rd semester is going on since 15 Aug. If you want to start from Level 0, you can only join kiip level 0 class from the Feb 2022 (next year). My suggestion is to learn Korean yourself during the waiting time, and then apply for a level test to get assigned to the higher level class before the next semester starts.
DeleteHi, recently I attended KIIP level 4 two times and in exam, got 52 marks and advanced to level 5. But, am not able to download my level 4 completion certificate. Please suggest any alternative way for acquiring level 4 completion certificate. Thanks in advance
ReplyDeleteYou get 수료증 for completing level 4, which indicates that you completed level 4 and is attending the level 5. When you complete level 5, you get 이수증 which indicates that you have completed the whole kiip course.
DeleteThanks for your reply. In my personal KIIP portal it is still showing 과정 이수 instead of 수료증. So, Suggest me how to get 4 딘계 수료증. Thanks in advance
ReplyDeleteI am sorry for making you confused. But 과정 이수증 is the certificate that you are searching for. The certificate is enough to help you gain extra points when applying for points-based visas.
DeleteHow can I check my reciept if registration?
ReplyDeleteYou can check your receipt for test registration in the afternoon or evening when the kiiptest website works normally.
DeleteI already registered and took exam. My current level is registered as level 1. But I have now TOPIK level 2. Can register for level 3 course?
ReplyDeleteYes, you can register for level 3 class after submiting your topik certificate to immigration office.
DeleteWhere are Computer based tests performed? Is it a proctored test in my house or at an external test site?
ReplyDeleteThe test will be hold in the test site, the same as the paper-based test. The only difference is that, in the CBT test, you use computer to record your answer and writing instead of in the paper, like the PBT test.
DeleteIs the registration for the CBT at a different time and on a different website? For example, today, June 7, registration for the written test just opened. Where could I register for the CBT?
DeleteCBT and PBT tests use the same website (kiiptest.rog). However, the CBT is different from the PBT in both time schedule and location. The CBT has only few test locations but the time schedule is much more flexible, around 20 times/month. It means you can take the test in any day
ReplyDeleteThank you for your quick reply! I failed to sign up for a PBT location when registration opened yesterday. Do you know when and how I can sign up for the CBT?
DeleteThe CBT registration procedure is the same as the PBT. The new CBT schedule has not been updated yet. You can check the schedule by visiting kiiptest.org > KIIP test guide > CBT pre-test.
DeleteThank you! I just successfully signed up for the CBT. Do you know if the test is basically the same as the written version, including the speaking portion?
DeleteThey are both the same, just different in conducting methods. In pre-test, there is no speaking section.
DeleteAre you sure there's no speaking section? I thought I saw another page on this site that said if you score a 0 on the pre-test speaking part, you're automatically placed into the level 0 class.
DeleteOops, I am sorry for my mistake. There is speaking section in the pre-test. If you are aiming for a high level class, you should buy a practice test book or simply take a free sample test below:
Deletehttps://www.koreantopik.com/2019/11/new-official-kiip-pre-test-sample-2019.html
I passed KIIP exam in December 2019, for how long it is valid? I am planing to apply for Naturalization, do I need to take exam again?
ReplyDeleteIf you passed the level 5 귀화용 exam, you don't need to take it again. there is no expired date for the certificate.
DeleteHi, is the midterm schedule correct? I think the second date (test on 5.13) shows differently on the kiip site. The kiip site shows the second midterm test is on 6.3. I have seen two photos floating around, so is the one on this site a previous mentioned schedule but got changed?
ReplyDeleteHi, the schedule here is a bit outdated due to the recent schedule changes from KIIP. It is up to date now. Thank you.
Delete- So you can get level 5 completion certificate even if you didn't take or failed the 종합평가?
ReplyDelete- Some visas require 'completed' kiip.
Is the level 5 considered completed with just 이수증 and not passed test?
You must take the 종합평가 at least once in order to retake the class if failed and get the level 5 completion certificate. 이수증 can be used to get plus points, for example F2 visa. However, in case of most F5 visa, 합격증 is required.
DeleteGreetings.
ReplyDeleteI just applied for the KIIP program using my TOPIK 3 results. I was placed at level 4. Can I get a KIIP certificate (whether level 3 or 4) immediately or I must take the KIIP test?
And if I must take the KIIP test, must I also take classes or can directly register for the exam?
Thank you
Hi Norbert, you won't get any certificate until you finish your level 4 class and pass the level 4 exam.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your response.
ReplyDeleteI had TOPIK level 3, so I was placed at level 4 for the KIIP program.
Can I apply for the KIIP test (if Yes, what level can I apply for?), or I must take classes before the test?
Hi Norbert, you can't apply for a mid-term test unless you take your level 4 class. In other words, you must take a class before taking the mid-term.
ReplyDeleteI take the kiip level test and the result is level 3
ReplyDeleteSo how can i register to level 3 class and where is the location of the class
I live here in Changwon...thank you for your reply...
Hi, new class will be available for registration in early January.
ReplyDeleteBecause you are located in Changwon, only classes in your region will be displayed in your class list.
To signup for a kiip class, please follow this guide:

Is it possible to register for a comprehensive test without taking the class, or is it mandatory to first take the class and then the test?
ReplyDeleteHi Santiago, it is possible. If your level test score is over 85 points, you can directly apply for a comprehensive test without taking a class.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your reply.
ReplyDeleteDo I need the level test scores in order to register for the comprehensive test? I am thinking of taking the level test on 02/17 of which the results are given on 02/29, however, the registration period for the comprehensive test is 02/20 - 02/24, which is before receiving the results.
Yes, your level test score must be announced before you can apply for the comprehensive test. It's not an easy task to get such the high scores without any preparation. You should focus on getting your high level test score now rather than thinking about registering for the comprehensive test.
ReplyDeleteHi Mam thank you for your reply....ill check your page and subscribe...
ReplyDeleteThank you for your assistance...God bless you:)Merry Christmas 🎄
