Hello fellow N3 tacklers! I may have possibly devised a self study plan for myself. Thought I'd share
Vocab: (Anki) Sou matome N3 book and whatever words I encounter outside of the book.
Kanji: (Anki) RTK with Japanese keywords and then once finished, move onto sou matome N3 book.
Reading: Read native media daily! Right now I am starting off with the manga, しろくまカフェ. Also, there is currently a 多読 round so I'm participating in that. Goal is a modest 350 pages but I aim to do more.
Listening: Listen to Pocoyo. I plan to rip the audio from the Youtube episodes and listen to them. 7 episodes/ week and then switch them to newer ones. I also plan to watch more variety shows per friend's suggestion. He told me that listening to material more difficult one level higher will make it easier to adjust to the speed of N3 in comparison. I trust his judgement since he has taken the higher levels and passed. This is my weakest area so I hope my listening skills are up to par with N3 level by December.
Grammar: As I'm a bit rusty, I plan to first review the book 「どんなときどう使う日本語表現文型200 初・中級」the older edition. It covers the old JLPT 4-3 level grammar. Not sure how it gauges to the current JLPT level format though but the newer edition is at N5-N4 so I'm going to assume the older book is more or less the same level. There are 20 chapters so I should be able to move along the book in a decent time. Afterwards I will review the sou matome N3 grammar book.
I'm not sure how I will review the grammar points using Anki. I will experiment for now. I also don't have any anki stats to post. I'll make sure to post it 4 weeks from today
