Can anyone provide some information on the difficulty level of TOPIK exams, starting from the beginner level - what kind of questions would one expect from the first level exam? Cool

You can see for yourself on the TOPIK website. They have all of the test papers, audio files and answer sheets going back to the 7th test posted there. Of course, the section of the site where you can find them is all in Korean, including the file names, so if you need any help finding them let me know.

^ Good idea to look at the site. However from what i can remember, to get TOPIK level 2, the paper begins with something like:

MC question:

"what are these?"

(picture of glasses)

a. glasses
b. a hat
c. an umbrella
d. a book

and ends with harder reading comp questions; short paragraph, where you have to choose the main idea. Also MC.

Can't explain listening or the short composition Q, so better look up the site.
