Hey I'm working through RTK1-3 right now, and I've seen some sample pages of RTH1 and a lot of the characters are the same with the same story. So my question is, if I need to go through RTH1-2 for (3000 characters) if I've finish RTK3? I guess i'm asking if RTK1-3 is equivalent to the characters learned in RTH1-2 since both cover 3000 characters.

Thanks I will post there. I saw that thread but it focuses a lot on simplified hanzi.. and it isn't really the answer to my question, but i suppose it's the same topic.
