JLPT 2009 – Level 1 Preparation

April 15, 2009 Leave a comment

I’m considering taking the JLPT Level1 this year.

As officially announced JLPT will be administered twice this year. The first in July 5 (but limited to Japan, China, South Korea, and Taiwan) and on December 2009 (No official date from the link below, but basing on dates of previous exams, first sunday of Dec – Dec. 6).

I’ve started with my plan, but not that full yet. Will provide a check point maybe at the end of this month. For the mean time, I’m targetting around June or July to start my studies.

I’ve asked for a colleageu’s (who passed L1 but is Chinese – has an advantage with Kanji) input, and main information I got were:

1) Use the Kanji/Vocab list available in MLC

2) Use Kanzen Master and ALC (will confirm again which specific books)

3) Interleave of Kanji and Grammar study

I also tried looking for other Study Methods/Plans and the most feasible I was able to search was here.

Came across also this site and am now waiting for feedback.

And last, but not the least, will most likely get the input of japanese senseis back in manila for a possible study plan to pass JLPT L1 by December.

I guess that’s my latest update for my japanese studies.

How’s your japanese studies?
