About three and a half years I suppose

Not hard at all, I think it's because I do nothing but listen to japanese all day(for my media enjoyment). But for a better prediction I'll post my results up on friday or something, once I come home from class.(Rather do it relaxed and awake then rushed)gyuujuice Wrote:I assume those are out of 100, in which case, おめでとうございました。I guess they must be -- the score interpretation page implies that the maximum is 400.
ta12121 Wrote:Er, given that the way the test works is that it starts off easy-ish and dynamically adjusts the difficulty of the questions based on whether you got the previous ones right or wrong, the first few minutes are probably not a very good guide. Also at the end of the test I'd expect everybody to finish with questions which roughly matched the score the test was about to give them. So everybody's experience of the test will be different, and the only thing you can compare between people is scores (and you have to trust that their algorithm is good :-))pm215 Wrote:350+=near-native level(according to the scoring).

Evil_Dragon Wrote:Oh, I figured everybody would answer roughly the same questions. Didn't know they had that kind of system.The impression I picked up from the web pages is that the people behind the test are in it for the research into this sort of adaptive test, and the provision of a free Japanese proficiency test is kind of a side-effect :-) I think that the adaptivity is what lets them have a single test covering the whole ability range that doesn't take six hours...
This sounds kind of interesting though. At least more so than the JLPT

You can pretty much tell I did the grammar/reading the next day.

Definitely a sign for you to take the JLPT N2 or N1 so that you can convert all this self training into real world college credit (if that's what you're looking for). I think a passing N1 is worth about 26 credit hours in foreign language studies at some institutions.

I noticed whenever it gave a lot of the answers in hiragana(not kanji) I had trouble, it took a bit of time for my mind to convert it in all kana(I always hear how japanese people have trouble with all kana sentences, I wonder if it's the same thing...)
The grammar definitely needs work. As for the reading part it wasn't hard but it definitely signals me to keep reading until I can get good. The listening part wasn't bad as I was listening for the specific answer to what the question was asking for.
