HELP: Studying HSKK Intermediate Section 1 Tips

Hey guys,

Just like the header of this post, I'm looking for some advice on how I can improve for section 1. I redid the HSKK Intermediate test, and I got the same result... 2 points under the passing mark.

This frustrates me because I've been going through practice tests and feel like I'm comfortable and confident that I can do the first section, but when I listen to the questions they felt 10 times harder than the past papers.

It's also not helpful when I'm in the same room as another test taker and hearing them copy a millisecond faster than me.

I've decided to shadow 30 sentences a day on the HSK 4 Mandarin Corner vocab collection, as well as trying to shadow the street interviews on the same YouTube account. I've also decided to refresh my grammar, but I'm honestly not sure where else I can work on.

I'm thinking of hiring a tutor on Italki, but I'm not sure if it's worth the money or hassle.

Advice is highly appreciated :)

Medicinal herbs

Hi guys, first time buying chinese medicine after consultation. My bf and I weren't sure about the directions about the use of tea. We think he has to drink a cup at 6am and at 2pm or around those times for 2 weeks, but the directions say we have to cook the medicinal ingredients all together.

If we had any left over, what are we supposed to do with it? Put it in the fridge?
