I was on the KLPT website (http://www.klpt.org/english/) and I read that it�s necessary to register for the test at one of the registration offices but there don�t seem to be any registration offices listed for Korea. Does anyone know where they are?

I don't think you need to know where the reg. offices are, just the test location. I registered online for the last one.

Try the main Korean site at http://www.klpt.org/. Register with the website if you haven't already. Log in. At the top left of my log in screen it gives the dates of the next two tests and also the registration dates. Although apparently the one in April is for both KLPT and BKLPT and the one in July is just for the BKLPT.

To my understanding the next test is April 27th and you can't register for it online until March 4th.

I took the recent one in Seoul and was the only white guy in a room of 60 plus people. My Korean is so bad that I couldn't understand the directions of the test monitor guy and the listening section was a disaster but I still graded out as intermediate.

Thanks for your help Smile

Ok, I�ll register online in March. Will they tell me the test location when I register for it? Is one held in Gyeonggi province as well, do you know?
I think I�m going to have a problem with the listening as well Sad

You can take the BKLPT if your level is lower. You choose the location. I can't remember if there's one in Gyeongi-do. But I do remember it's a bit harder to find the Korean test locations than the international ones. I even tried now and couldn't find it. Anyways good luck.
