I am a Chinese and I have studied Chinese for quite a long time. I often think that my Chinese is fine. But now after reading a Chinese exam from a high school from New York. I have a doubt now. This Chinese exam is rather difficult even if I am a Chinese I think they should teach me Chinese again

I don't know. But it really surprises me that as a Chinese, I find this Chinese exam rather difficult.

@celticeagle This kind of Chinese is supposed to be a writer or researcher for ancient Chinese.

I think you misunderstood me here. In fact my Chinese isn't bad at all, but this Chinese exam is very difficult not only for foreigners, but also Chinese people. This exam is just insane. Learning Chinese like that will turn out to be a Chinese professors

I know. Here we learn so much about the grammar and even if it is very formal to use in the real life.

No harm in taking a refresher course.

But I think learning Chinese in this way is not very suitable.
