As a Chinese, I don't think I'm able to repeat the content word by word. But I'm pretty sure I can easily tell the story to others after understanding it.

As A Chinese, I do not take HSK exams. But it content you cited does not require "word to word" repeat, but to use one's own fluent Chinese to tell the same story (or the main story line).

<p>My issue here is that I would struggle even in my mother tongue to repeat word for word a passage I just heard, let alone one in Chinese. Has anyone done this exam yet? Any tips on how to prepare for the first part? I'm assuming that you have the opportunity to write down notes as you hear the passage. </p>

For part 1 of HSKK高级 exam, do you really need to repeat word for word what is said in the recording?

Thanks to @Xuannn I don't have to search for the instruction again. I'll include the quote at the end of this answer.

In the quote, the word used is "复述" but not "背诵". The difference is, with "复述", you retell the story with your own words. With "背诵", you'll have to recite it word by word, character by character.

So no, you do not have to recite it word by word. Just try to understand what the story says, and retell the story in your own words.
