 I have about five more months of study before I take the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) Level 3, so I'm starting to get a little more serious about how I spend my study time. Recently I've got kind of a morning routine going that takes up quite a bit of my free time before work, but I think it's worth it (even if I do have to get up early!). First, I go over a few new points from my grammar book and answer a few sample questions. It seems like there are so many new constructions in Level 3, and many of them blend together to confuse me, so this is really important! Next I work on my kanji, which I'm studying two different ways. I've started working through Heisig's famous book Remembering the Kanji, because I really want to just get all 2,000 essential characters out of the way. So far I'm really enjoying the method (even though some of the memorization techniques are a little goofy), and I've using some new flash cards to work through 100 characters a day, rotating 10 new characters in and out of the group. In addition, I'm using the awesome Speedanki.com website to go over the specific Level 3 kanji combinations, and brushing up on Level 4 kanji at the same time. Finally, I've been making tons of computer flash card sets (using iFlash) of Level 3 vocabulary, studying them in groups of 30 words. I think if I continue with this routine for a couple months before practicing with more JLPT sample exams, I will really see a difference! Hontou ni ganbarimasu!
