Not a post with tips about the JLPT

By admin, 8 June, 2011

That is the only traffic I get, even though jlpt posts account for about 2% of my volumes of musings. That is what some might call misplaced market focus, since I have little to say about the test, and little desire to speak about it. Some of the bloggers I read would tell me I have discovered a market and should create a product for them. Hmm. I don't know. Here is my advice: to pass the jlpt, go to Japan, and learn Japanese there by using it all the time. Then, since about half of the JLPT1 grammar is rarely used by Japanese people, by Kanzen Master and study that. In fact by the whole series, vocab, kanji, listening... If you can make it through those, you are ok.

I guess this is turning into a post about the test. I guess the last thing I will say is that it is a massive amount of kanji and vocab, so if you aren't reading Japanese for entertainment, it will be like memorizing a dictionary.

I passed level 2, before they redid the test. I think I will take a shot at level 1 next year. I keep thinking that things will calm down.
