JLPT1 in 9 Months - blackmacros - 2009-08-23

Haha, indeed! Tongue

Unfortunately, Uni has started up again and I feel obligated to attend classes and allocate a (small) amount of time to completing assignments. This necessarily precludes my preference for 8 hours/day of Japanese study Wink

[In fact, I think I noted in my original post that the fastest feasible time frame I personally could complete all these study materials in would be around 3 months total]

Whatever happened to Blackmacros? He hasn't posted in 2 months.

He should be taking the JLPT1 next month - I'd be interested in an update on current progressing..

Good question- maybe his brain exploded? Wink

I can't imagine adding 200 cards a day- I think my personal best for REVIEWING cards was only a bit over 200 in a single day, hah.


JLPT1 in 9 Months - blackmacros - 2009-11-01

I've been fairly busy the last two months, with life. I ended up with a lot of new things on my plate so I put Japanese on the back burner for a while.

Anyway, the only thing I really had the opportunity to keep up was my immersion environment to an extent, and my SRS reviews sporadically. Things are calming down a bit now (although I have exams coming up in a week) and today I cut down on the 2000 unreviewed cards I had in Anki. Only 600 left Smile

I'll still be sitting the JLPT, although with 2 lost months I certainly don't expect to pass. But I'm interested in seeing my grammar score at least.

On a side note, before I got derailed, I got about 500 words into the JLPT list. I didn't find it as efficient as I had expected. I was constantly having too weed out words I already knew, which was really annoying -- far more so than the actual dictionary lookup process. So once I get back into the swing of the things (probably after exams) I'm going to be switching towards mining more native stuff. That was always the end goal, but I'm just going to cut out the JLPT word list because it didn't work out as well as I had hoped.

So that's what happened to me. Life Smile


JLPT1 in 9 Months - coverup - 2009-11-01

Yeah dude it's tough going with word lists.. I'm doing JLPT2 and I feel like I'm going to want to weed out a lot of these sentences when I'm done with the test.
