Everyone should know that 425 points is a watershed of four or six levels, and if it exceeds or is just right, everyone is happy, and if it is less than this number, even if it is one point short, it is powerless.
So how do you pass a level at once in a limited amount of time?
How many questions do you have to answer correctly to get to 425 in level 4 or 6?
Today, let's talk about it in detail~
Paper structure & score distribution
The original score of the paper is 100 points. After a series of complex conversions, the results were finally announced in the form of a full score of 710 points. If you don't understand it, you can replace 710 with 100 to calculate.

Proportion of each question type
The total score of Level 4 and 6 is 710 points, which is converted according to the score ratio on the syllabus, and the scores for each question type are as follows:
听力总分：710*35%=248.5
阅读总分：710*35%=248.5
写作总分：710*15%=106.5
Total translation score: 710*15%=106.5
Level 4 and 6 Writing/Translation Grading Criteria
425 How many questions need to be answered correctly
To be precise, there is no passing score for level 4 and 6, but only level 4 can be applied for level 6 only if you have scored 425 points (including 425 points), so everyone defaults to 425 as the passing score.
If you want to get a score of 425, you must get 60% of the score in listening, reading, writing and translation to pass!
Listening passing score: 248.5*60%=149.1
Reading passing score: 248.5*60%=149.1
Writing passing score: 106.5*60%=63.9
Translation passing score: 106.5*60%=63.9
So here's the truth:
Listening: 149.1/248.5*25=15 questions, 15 questions need to be answered correctly
Reading: 149.1/248.5*30=18 questions, 18 questions need to be answered correctly
Writing and translation belong to the subjective part, which cannot be judged by simple right or wrong, but there are scoring criteria, and the writing and translation part must also get 63.9 points!
Of course, there are also gods who are aiming for 500+ and 600+, and so on~
If you want 500+:
Number of questions answered correctly: 173.95/248.5*25=18
Number of questions to be answered correctly: 173.95/248.5*30=22
If you want to get 600+:
Number of questions answered correctly: 210/248.5*25=22
Read the number of questions to be answered correctly: 210/248.5*30=27
Writing and translation are subjective questions and are difficult to measure with the correct number of questions, but in general, to achieve a score of 425, writing and translation should be at least 8 points.
After reading the above, are you more panicked?
Compare your usual accuracy of doing the questions, how likely do you think you are to pass?
