Sharing a small win
I’ve been semi-casually studying Japanese for around 5 years. I currently live in Japan, but since I already have a remote job for an English-speaking software company, I’ve never had an interest in getting a job for a Japanese company, and having a good level of Japanese was really only ever a matter of convenience and personal achievement.
On a whim, I participated in a mock JLPT session that was held by a local university. To my surprise, I passed the N2 level. Not with flying colors, but with enough margin that if it were the real thing, I probably would have passed.
This is a win, because I have never passed the JLPT before, and haven’t done any test preparation. I mostly just read books and participate in daily life. I have some Anki flashcards, but I’m far from consistent with it.
I signed up for the December test!
