YCT 3 — Word List and Characters
YCT 3 is the third level of the Youth Chinese Test. It is designed for students who already have a basic knowledge of Chinese and want to move to the next stage.
The vocabulary of YCT 3 expands to about 300 words. Students learn to talk about hobbies, future plans, school events, and handle everyday conversations. This level also helps children understand Chinese culture more deeply.
