Hi all! I was just wondering, what are the intervals per each mastery level (apprentice, guru, master, enlightened, burned)? I’ve got nearly 800 items at enlightened but I haven’t burned anything yet. I guess I’m sort of anticipating it!
I did search for it but the last topic I found on the subject was in 2015. I read somewhere that the intervals had changed some time ago and I wanted to make sure the information was accurate. Thanks! (And sorry if this information is available elsewhere)
It’s 4 months from Enlightened to Burned.
EDIT: @Kristen is the guide even right? It says the interval from Guru 1 to Guru 2 is 4 days, but isn’t it 7 days?
(@auruille just to be clear, the rest of the timings listed in the guide look accurate.)
yeah I’m pretty sure it’s 7 days as well
| Review | SRS Level | Total Wait | Next Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lesson | Apprentice 1 | - | 4h |
| 1 | Apprentice 2 | 4h | 8h |
| 2 | Apprentice 3 | 12h | ~1d |
| 3 | Apprentice 4 | 1d 11h | ~2d |
| 4 | Guru 1 | 3d 10h | ~1w |
| 5 | Guru 2 | 1w 3d 9h | ~2w |
| 6 | Master | 3w 3d 8h | ~1M |
| 7 | Enlightened | 7w 5d 7h | ~4M |
| 8 | Burned | 24w 6d 6h | - |
This is helpful. Thank you!
If you want to know when your first items are due to be burned, go to the top of your dashboard and find the level 1 radicals or kanji. Choose one that is enlightened and scroll to the bottom of the individual item’s page. It will tell when the next review is.
I didn’t know this was a feature. Thanks for the tip!
For reference, here’s the official timing: https://docs.api.wanikani.com/20170710/#spaced-repetition-system. They’re basically what @Kumirei said in the “next level” column, minus one hour.
