What Is the YKI Finnish Intermediate Test?

The YKI Finnish test is Finland’s official language proficiency exam, run by the National Agency for Education (Opetushallitus). It measures how well non-native speakers handle Finnish in practical scenarios—think reading a notice, writing an email, or chatting with a colleague. At the intermediate level (Keskitaso), it spans B1 to B2, testing four skills: reading, writing, listening, and speaking.

B1 means managing daily life—shopping or small talk—while B2 steps up to workplace or school fluency, like discussing plans. Passing B1.1 earns citizenship; B2 unlocks jobs or study opportunities. The test’s four parts are scored separately on the CEFR scale, and you need B1 or B2 to pass intermediate. It’s not tied to a course—you register (via Oph.fi), show up, and face it cold. That’s why knowing the format is everything, and YKIFinnish.fi’s simulations are your secret weapon.

Inside the YKIFinnish.fi Training Program

YKIFinnish.fi isn’t about teaching Finnish from scratch—it’s a targeted training program packed with test simulations that mirror the YKI Intermediate exam. Think of it as a practice arena where you get familiar with every twist and turn before test day. Here’s what’s inside:

• Test Simulations: A full suite of practice tests—reading, writing, listening, and speaking—built to match YKI B1–B2. No lessons, just the real deal.
• Realistic Format: Each simulation copies the official YKI structure, from question types to time limits, so there’s no guesswork.
• Results Page: Check your past test results and compare your stats to track how you’re improving over time.
• Accessible Design: Login-protected, mobile-friendly—run simulations anywhere, anytime.

Here’s a look at what you’ll experience:

Your YKI Prep Hub: Dive into Simulations. The completed tests are conveniently marked with a check sign. 

Each test starts with the Listening component: listen to audios and answer the questions below. Note that in real life, you will only get to hear the audios TWICE. Our training program doesn’t limit the amount of times you can listen to each audio, but we encourage you to limit yourself to 2 times. 

The next component is Reading. Same system: read the text, then answer the questions that follow. If you made a mistake, you can always de-select your answer and select a different one. 

Next is the Writing component.

Our program skips the grammar drills and vocab lists—it’s all about getting you exam-ready through practice. Whether you’re brushing up for B1 citizenship or aiming for B2 job fluency, these simulations let you test-drive YKI without the pressure.

Practice Tests: Your Key to YKI Success

The core of YKIFinnish.fi? Test simulations that feel like the real YKI Intermediate exam. We’ve crafted them from official YKI samples (like those at Oph.fi) to match B1–B2 demands—format, difficulty, and timing. Here’s what you’ll tackle:

• Reading Comprehension: Texts like ads or emails—e.g., “Find the meeting time” (B1) or “Summarize a notice” (B2). Multiple-choice or short answers test your grip on meaning.
• Writing Tasks: Prompts like “Write an 80-word email inviting a friend” (B1) or “Draft a 120-word complaint about a service” (B2). Practice real YKI-style responses.
• Listening Clips: Audio—dialogues, announcements—e.g., “Where’s the bus stop?” (B1) or “What’s the event schedule?” (B2). Slow for B1, natural pace for B2.
• Speaking Simulations: Record answers to prompts like “Describe your weekend” (B1), describe your opinions, etc. 

Why are these so useful? They get you familiar with YKI’s quirks—e.g., spotting key info in a rushed audio clip or nailing a 40-minute writing task. You’ll build confidence by facing the exact format—no surprises on test day. They also highlight weak spots—struggle with listening? Run more clips. One user said, “I knew exactly what to expect—passed B1.1 first go!” With YKIFinnish.fi, you’re not learning Finnish—you’re mastering the test.
