And still with the presence of mind to knock a hit post like that? Something tells me that creativity needs an outlet when it's not being hammered by revision. The tribe imagery is rather fitting for those of you that have never done the test before. When you exit the station or arrive by bus at the testing centre there will be thronging and anxious crowds, there will be nervousness and there will be those that do not finish. Get a good night's sleep and remember it's only a test, the real prize comes through your application to learning the language.

Cheers for your comforting words! Not been well just lately so revision has come to a grinding halt unfortunately, but back on it now, so hopefully can pull up the bits that's I've fallen behind with!

Just get the feeling that JLPT2 this year is going to be far and away harder than JLPT3 was last year!

Apologies for the delay in replying. To be honest, I'm not even sure whether my system is working or not, but we'll soon find out, that's for sure!

Don't fret! The JLPT is just a mere stone along the road leading to Japanese fluency. Pass or fail, it's what you learn when pressuring yourself for it that counts!

My advice is to push yourself hard up to the exam, have a good sleep the day before, do some *light* revision on the morning of the exam, eat a healthy breakfast (no greasy stuff – bananas are good) and sip water throughout the exam. Caffeine is supposed to work against you, so I'd avoid it. If you've been doing things correctly you shouldn't feel sleepy anyway.

Oh, and I assume you are doing practice tests? Look hard enough online and you'll find past papers. Don't skip this part – getting used to the format of all sections and learning how to plan your time in the exam is crucial. In my experience passing JLPT1 last year I found simply revising the material is unlikely to be enough, .

I empathize completely! I wish I could be as organized enough to even have sticky notes as a medium of revision I guess I should have a system if any for getting through the torture and bliss of learning Japanese

JLPT: It’s coming……

Okay, so 6th December, the date of this year’s JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) is coming up fast, and Ryan at Caught*Red-handed is doing more than biting his nails……
