The YCT Standard Course seems like a helpful resource for students who are studying Chinese overseas or preparing for the YCT exam. It’s nice that the PDF versions are available for anyone who needs them. The course is divided into different levels, with corresponding textbooks and workbooks for each level. For Level 1, there’s Textbook 1 and Workbook 1. Level 2 includes Textbook 2 and Workbook 2. Level 3 consists of Textbook 3 and Workbook 3, while Level 4 includes Textbook 5 and Workbook 5. It’s good to see that there are comprehensive materials available to support Chinese language learning at different proficiency levels. Thanks for sharing this information!
