@@styl3k1fry it really depends on the person. I have friends (Chinese) who have passed it, and they cannot speak fluently, others that can speak at N2 level. In my case (I’ve passed the N1), I live and work in Japan, with Japanese people only, and I have absolutely no problem communicating, even before passing the N1. However, I am fully aware that I still cannot speak using the same expressions as a native, and that my writing skills need to be polished, so I can assure you, having the N1 does not make you 100% fluent, but it does gives you those tools. The rest is up to the environment and daily practice? I guess.

When I was studying for the N4 I was only able to find like 2-3 full practice tests online and some that could be purchased were the same copies! I wanted to do practice tests more often but since I only had a few I spaced them out. I found that redoing the same test wasn't very helpful as I was just remembering what I put down before.... I guess that COULD help but only marginally I think. I don't mind paying but since I'm not in Japan I find some places to be way too expensive

I hope this helps you. Pd: I took the N3 this month and it was quite like these practice tests so I recommend it.

Thank you for the video! Awesome! The hardest part for me is the listening. What sources you think are the best ones? There are quite a few JLPT-related. I usually rely on podcasts, which are useful to learn Japanese in general, but not that good for the 聴解.

I didn't practice the test much at all, I just studied the language like normal. The only thing I needed to do was check to see if there were any uncommon grammar points tested on that I wouldn't see much in my regular study materials. I'd say anyone who can read a Japanese book comfortably without a dictionary and comprehend a news broadcast without subtitles will be able to pass no problem.

Would you be willing to share your Anki cards and Quizlet cards with us? That would be so helpful! Also, what apps did you use (besides quizlet and anki)

Yeah, I've been doing the completely non-optimal method of just watching a ton of japanese anime, shows, and youtube, as well as reading books. I've read about 6 Japanese books over a few years and reread about half of them. The test is coming up next week and for the past 3 weeks I've been doing listening examples because the way they ask questions can be a bit hard to understand if you're not familiar with it. Looking at a video like this, I wonder if I've made a big mistake but I'm not too worried about just passing. I passed N2 with 150/180 with a similar kind of program, so I hope it'll work out okay. If I do pass, hopefully with a good score, I'll be glad to know and share that while it is just a test, you can do well if you mostly focus on the language itself. I do, however, really appreciate you putting out this comprehensive video on how to be as efficient as possible. Congratulations on a perfect score. It's damn impressive, regardless of what your opinion on what method is best.

Tbh, some people say that's the optimal method, just consuming a lot of native content. How did the exam go? Any recommendations for shows or books you used getting to N2? I've not done JLPT before but considering taking N2 next December. Currently N3-ish level and native materials are still a bit difficult but I'm persevering, hopefully I'll get good enough gradually with enough exposure.

You said you passed N1 in 3 months but what I'm curious about is: 3 months from what level? Like were you a complete beginner with no knowledge or had you already gained around an N2 level? Or did you already know most of the material/concepts for N1 and spent those 3 months just studying for the test itself? Either way, thanks for such a useful breakdown! I feel like this can help anyone prepping for the JLPT regardless of level!

@Am-tc8gf

@@_capu Sure. Although i have not personally taken any other levels, I hear a lot that some vocab and grammar patterns appear in multiple levels, so you are absolutely right. I guess the thing you are missing is that the readily available n1 resources outline everything you are expected to know for n1. The lists would include things that were also tested in the lower levels IF they are still testable in n1. So there’s really no need to go through all the levels yourself or to know what’s exactly on the other tests. Another thing to keep in mind is that jlpt is scaled, so a perfect score does not mean that i necessarily knew everything and got 100% on the test - you just had to do relatively better than most people.

This is a very useful video if you want to pass JLPT, but were you be able to build an usable knowledge that you can use for communication, watching movies, reading and understanding books, you know, anything that does not have a connection to the test itself. I personally think that passing JLPT doesn't necessarily mean that you have built the language knowledge, or that you can speak Japanese in a higher proficiency, so I would be really interested in hearing your answer!Many people who are learning Japanese, or other languages think that a language exam or a proficiency test immediately gives them the power of understanding the language and using it like a native speaker, but I think it is a little different.

While true, if you have enough knowledge to ace N1, all you really need to do at this point is immerse for a bit and you’ll progress much faster than if you started at 0. I’ve seen evidence that people who couldn’t really communicate after passing N1 only needed around a year of immersion. Meanwhile starting from 0 would need 3-4 years minimum.

I passed the N2 a few months ago and i can testify that it definitely doesn't reflect your ability. I'm also a good test taker and I used a lot of past tests (like the Try! books) to try to find common questions etc. During the test the language use part i guess about 60% of everything based on radical knowledge and thinking what they would probably test me on. reading was mainly finding the exact same passage back in the text, listening was easy for me as if you've watched enough KZread videos or anime in Japanese you automatically sense what emotion they try to convey which is often what the answer options reflect. i passed N2, got offered a part time teaching job, i can apply for japanese companies but i have never had a spoken conversation in Japanese.

Hi! Request received. I will start posting videos on each question type probably starting next week!

It's funny the people implying that you don't need any Japanese knowledge to pass JLPT or if you can't speak the language well then you've wasted your time. Feels like they're trying to diminsh other people's achievements, and passing N1 is a big achievement. Speaking/writing are far, far harder than reading/listening, so "N1-level" speaking is a much higher barrier. As for me, JLPT is perfect because I don't care at all about speaking/writing. I'm learning Japanese for fun, no intention of moving to Japan or working for a Japanese company or marrying a Japanese person. My big goal is to understand and enjoy a full drama series without subtitles. Being able to hold a conversation would be cool but I'm not going to worry about it. And anyway, I've heard that over time with enough exposure, output comes naturally - curious to see if this works.

Those I believe are covered in more detail in this video, but in short, anki/quizlet for kanji. Recalling and testing are your best friends to self-assess. Taking practice tests and using flashcards can help you efficiently prepare for the test. For kanji and vocab in general, flashcards can also be helpful. Another thing that I used to do is whenever my brain is idling, I try to recall the Japanese (and their kanji) for everything I see around me, eg. chairs, trees, phones. If you also need to write Japanese in the future, practice writing a lot of kanji :)

I have no one to consult this with so if anyone has any advice please give me an advice. I am a senior high school student in japan. I am planning on submitting the test results to a college in japan for the entrance examinations. I barely passed the N1 with 105 points. (Passing score is 100) I passed it with the minimum effort i could😂so I was wondering if i should take it again for higher points or is it that when using it for jobs or school just passing it in itself is important??

This is really interesting, speaking as someone who personally passed the N1 with a 180/180 too (albeit in July 2019). I was already pretty fluent though, so while I didn’t try out this approach, my advice to those who feel that it is too focused on test-taking is that you can always supplement it with other methods which suit your own needs and goals, e.g. writing down flash cards you don’t feel confident with by hand rather than relying on an app (proven to be better for long-term memory), focusing on example sentences rather than the vocabulary/grammar, as well as coming up with new examples yourself (cf. active recall) without referring to the material. P.S. I remember finding the app Bunpo really useful back then for Japanese grammar as it came with small tests; plus, it’s free, so there’s that :-)
