Today was my JLPT N5 exam, gave it for the first time. Though the dokkai section's choices were really tricky, I think I'll easily score 90% in exam. Your tips for dokkai part really helped alot. Thanks! Subbed :)
so yes here is my experience. i've given the N5 exam twice now, failed the first time and passed the second time. the first time I gave the test was fueled with absolute cramming and practice exams for 6 months, but i still failed it. the second time i gave it, i made sure to practice questions based on the questions i had attempted before, hence giving me a sense of strategy in the exam. that made me pass the second exam as well. hope that helps!
It’s not something we can do one week before the examination, but immersion helps a lot. If we’re used to read, I think we definitely have enough time to read everything, but it’s training to do well in advance. I also have a hard time with reordering words/sentences in the grammar section. I’ll try your trick it should help a lot, thanks! I just wanted to test my knowledge, but the more I do past exams, the less I feel like my knowledge is tested lol…
i don’t think JLPT is designed to have enough time to read no matter how good you are, even a native speaker! we’re supposed to be able to skim read bc that’s a skill in itself 😅 haha keep up the practice exams!! i have to start soon 🥲🥲🥲
@@ebifried are you talking about N2 and N1 specifically? For N3 I often finish between 30 and 40 minutes before the end of the exam, so I thought it was a matter of reading speed 😅. Thank you, hopefully you can achieve your goals too.
@@ichika-matsuoka I had so long left for N3. I was able to read all the passages twice and then sit around waiting for ages At N2, nope. It's a rush from start to end
@@狐赤い-f5b I see, I don’t really like being forced to skim read as I don’t see the value in doing that, but well… As I got a percentile rank of 98.4 in N3, maybe I should have started with N2 instead.
Let's goooo getting to know those secret techniques. Thanks for your curated list. Edit: After watching all of it I have to say your vlog style gets better and better over time. Clean cuts, smooth transitions. Really informative overall and it makes it really easy to follow.
thank youuu, that means a lot 🥹🫶🏻 i’m really happy that i’m improving w every video but still want to work faster hehe i spent at least 10 hours on this video 😅
I have taken and passed the N2. My strategy is to start with Reading Comprehension, then do Grammar, and finally do Vocabulary. Why? ✏️ 1. Better to spend time and energy trying to understand comprehensive texts, because at 15 minutes left my mind cannot focus on the meaning of sentences that try to deceive me. However, my mind CAN focus on solving shorter Vocabulary questions in 15 minutes. Work with your brain. ⭐ Note 1: Skip strategically. Long reading questions and questions about the author's opinion (🤢) take an incredible amount of focus, understanding, and TIME. Up to 15 minutes per question if it's really tricky and I'm psyching myself out. Just try it for 4 or 5 minutes and if it's not coming, skip it and use time elsewhere, and come back to it once the rest of the test is answered. ⭐ Note 2: Also be aware than Reading Comprehension is graded SEPARATELY from Grammar+Vocabulary, which are graded together. If you don't leave time and mental energy to properly do the Reading section, then you will fail guaranteed. 👎🏽 ✏️ 2. Grammar questions: They require not as much effort as Reading, but definitely require attention. Knowing the basic meaning of the grammar is not enough! Knowing its nuances and how it technically connects to other grammatical elements is key (this knowledge will also help you to read faster). I used the app ✨Bunpo: Learning Japanese✨. Worth the subscription because I passed on my first try. ✏️ 3. Vocabulary questions: During your preparations, use the app ✨Kanji Study✨ to check all the words you don't know. Even seeing it just once versus never can make a huge difference when that word comes up on a test and you need to choose between the two most plausible kanji readings! Also use a textbook. I like ✨ShinKanZen Master (新完全マスター)✨ because they mimic the question styles of the test and do a reasonably diligent job of using example sentences and explanations (in the answer booklet) that help to distinguish the nuances of similar words (in part two of the book, the back half). It's fire. 🔥 ⭐ Note 3: Following @ebifried 's advice about timing yourself with a non-digital watch (only analog is allowed in the testing room), do mini quizzes and practice tests. All the time. Listen to listening tests while making dinner. Solve reading questions in textbooks and free printouts. Listen and watch lists of vocabulary on RUclips at 1.5x speed. This will only help, because although her point is true that knowledge of the test is crucial and you will fail without it, actual Japanese knowledge is also very necessary to be able to apply what you know about the test WITH SPEED. 📍 Context: I took the test while living in Japan after 6 months of focused, totally independent stud. I had only beginner's Japanese textbook study experience before that, though I studied and lived in other languages more extensively, as well. 📚 As mentioned above, I highly recommend the apps "Bunpo: Learning Japanese" and "Kanji Study", whch were indispensable. I also recommend 新完全マスター and official JLPT Reading Comprehension book and Practice test book. Of course, there are various reliable and well-organized online sites for spot-checking things like grammar or nuances of words as you go along. Hope that helps.
omg this is awesome!! thank you for sharing your tips :) funny you recommend bunpo, i'm working on a video about it right now which brought me back to this to check out my old video editing style LOL
Great advice! I passed N2 by doing the test backwards i.e., long reading part 1st and working backwards. Basically doing the questions that require the most stamina first. Also with the kanji and grammar questions either you know the answer or you don’t so whether you are tired or not it doesn’t matter. A tip for N1 is that (which I will take in a few days) that my teacher taught me is to familiarize yourself with “N1” grammar because most of the questions options will be: 1-N1 grammar 2-N2 grammar 3-N3 4-grammar N1/N2 grammar It’s almost never the N3 grammar. Nevertheless the test is designed to trick you and the number of questions that aren’t tricky are not enough for you to pass the test. One you pass N1 then you can really start to learn Japanese lol.
I think I'll score a bit more than what I was gonna before this video. JLPT is tomorrow.....and I'm not prepared.....but I hope i'll manage to pass.....and then I can study properly
Gonna be sitting N2 this December, thanks for the video! Just did N3 yesterday and I focused really hard on improving my reading speed/understanding how to answer the questions. Shin Kanzen Master Reading is honestly the best book that I recommend, when I did N4 ages ago I went in completely blind and it was stressful lol Knowing how the exam is laid out, and where the tricks come up in questions, is massively vital
@@ebifried Haha yeah you're totally right, actually I was gonna book N2 this summer but kind of decided to take it a bit slower. Funnily enough the vocab section yesterday was very N2-heavy I think! But definitely need to grind hard for N2 reading and listening
N2 is in 6 days and here I am tryna cram last minute cuz I've been too busy with college. Not an excuse but hopefully everything works out, thank you for the tips😭🥺
@@bambiririiclips I'm confident you will! I suppose you've worked very hard for it!! Either way, I'm proud of you and you should be proud of yourself!!! 💪
Im taking the jlpt n2 this july in my countries metropolis area i will be utilizing some of the tips and textbooks you mentioned in the video as well as anki for memorizing wish me good luck
@ebifried yeah i think many of us dont know this hacks. so the test get more difficult to do. thank you so much. i hope you and family always healthy prosperous & happy life 😊
another tip my japanese teachers taught me for the reading section is actually to read the title of the text first before anything else. It usually gives u a good general idea of what the topic and opinion of the author is, and makes it way easier to sort through the text for relevant information
Veryyy useful info from someone with experience! Thank you!! (I'm definitely practicing much more efficiently after this video coz until now, I was just randomly adding to my Japanese knowledge and obviously this requires a very different approach, and it requires test taking knowledge rather than just understanding Japanese well 😅...so thanks a lotttt for this video and the great advices)
yayyy i’m so happy it could help! i was confident w these tips but when i uploaded this i hadn’t passed yet so looking back im rly glad i forced myself to make this vid instead of study more 😂😂
i realized it is best starting from the back of the test because the beginning is usually way easier which makes it easier in the last 5 minutes when times run out
@@ebifried it is a multiple choice exam 😂. I'm confident Ill ace the listening test but might get screwed over by reading and vocab. Goodluck to the both of us 🙏🙏

@@ebifried Doing my first one which is N2 and I'm finding it hard to study. I've been learning through AJATT/Immersion. Good video. Good tips. I'll see how I do in July
@@mariotaz i’d say ajatt and immersion is perfect for learning japanese but for JLPT you gotta study the test! it’s not about your japanese knowledge 😅
Dear Miss, wishing you great day. I would like to ask, let's say I have passed JLPT N4, and now I am skipping JLPT N3 and go straight for JLPT N2. Until April 2023 I have studied Japanese for 1 year and 4 month, do you think I have the chance to pass N2 this December 2023 ? Thanks in advance.
you absolutely have enough time to study but it’s gonna be hardcore! there’s no rush though yknow, if you cram it it’ll be harder to remember long term. but you can still do it! 💪🏼
Great tips! I took the N3 in Nagano, not the first time, and this is the first year I was able to at least every word in the reading section. "For someone who failed the JLPT N3 twice before, How did you pull that off?" you may ask. Well, this time, I totally couldn't find my wrist watch before the test, and they covered the room clocks) so I, out of fear of not finishing, blitzed so quickly through the grammar and got to the reading ASAP. Too quickly even, the whole time I was feeling guilty that I was totally going to fail the grammar section. Anyway, I read every word of the reading, but didnt understand every word, and ended up just having to just go back and skim like you suggested. And before I knew it, I was done and feeling really confident about the reading section. But I was so surprised because a I still had 10 minutes to go back and work on the grammar section and fix the ones I didnt know. I really think time froze for me during that test, it was a miracle! There is never enough time on the reading portion! Luckily, I know I passed all sections. So, my recommended (not!) strategy is to just forget your wristwatch (don't!)! It at least propelled me forward despite the fact that it was hyper stressful. (Good luck everyone! And don't listen to me!)
Why would you want to pass the JPLT easily? When you get the JPLT you go work in Japan afterwards, and if your skills are not actually good enough, you will have a miserable time
