[FinancialWar]

took the jlpt for the first time in my life, tried the lowest level N5. lol.

Who else did the test?

I am not to the level where I could start taking the JLPT. Anyway, how did you do? Was it difficult?

I took the JLPT today. I took level 4. I just took a look at the grading rubric and I can't believe how easy the requirements are! For each section, you have to get 19/60 points and overall, only like 95! I was a little bit worried when I finished... but this gives me lots more confidence. I teach myself, so my listening has not developed as well as traditional students.

I just read on wikipedia, the passing mark for N5 and N4 will not be released til March 2011.

I took N5. I think I did good

Ah, I was going to take the N3, but then I had to move away from D.C., sadly I could not get my registration date changed. Oh well, always next year.

I'd like to know what people thought of N3, and N4 if anyone took those. I'm especially interested to hear what people thought of N3 as it's kind of the oddball section (between old N2 and N3).

Good luck to all those who took it and end up passing.

You don't have to wait for a year, many places have test in July.

I'm planning on taking the N3 this year... I failed N2 a couple of years ago and took a break from seriously studying.

I want to pass N3 with a big score to get some confidence back in my Japanese, to then take the N2 a half year later... But, first N3.

I am going to try and take the N5 or N4 exam within a year. I could take it in July but I'm not sure I'll be ready for it. I would love to hear the details though!

I got my JLPT N5 certificate yesterday.
