I was thinking core 6000 step 8. advice?

Start at step 1 and suspend what you already know.

Forget about smart.fm. You're more than prepped for native materials.

books 1&2 or all of the 常用漢字？how is your grammar? i noticed i can read a children's monolingual dictionary fairly well after KO2001 books 1 & 2 but my grammar needs work still... maybe both of us should dive into this at some point: http://forum.koohii.com/showthread.php?tid=4190&page=1

i would advise staying away from smart.fm and using Anki as it has been far more efficient than iknow ever was for long-term memory...

Aren't you sick of prepackaged sentence packs by now after wading through KO? Why not go native?

Concur, it's time to learn from the source. Sentence mine(pick, pluck) native material

That said, you could do like I do: Suspend all Core 6000 words, unsuspend as you come across new words in your sentence mining. This is nothing more than if you added a sample sentence from a dictionary, with the added benefit of professionally read sentences.

1-I use anki and am not planning to use smart fm, just the sentences.


1- I am not sick of prepared sentneces packes. They are awsome! I just do a few new words a day and YES and I do do natural material. I just hate to interuprt my natural material time to stop and look things up. I prefer to just sit back and enjoy it.

3-My grammar is high enough that I dont run into anything new on smart fm. I am thinking about doing some new gammar soon though.

I guess if not one has done the leap from KO to smart fm, I'll go first....

No one has because as far as we're concerned, it's not a leap forward but rather a step back.

But whatever. Let us know how it goes.

At this point, I just use smart.fm sentences (Core 6000) as a vocabulary/usage corpus to supplement my subs2srsing. I'm making small diagonally forward leaps. ;p
