The veterans already have many tips floating around the boards, this is just what helps for me.
- I try to check my error page with thought and time
- I customized mnemonics to my liking
- I try not to review when I’m too tired or stressed
- Some say not to review any kanji/vocab between reviews to keep the ‘integrity’ of the SRS system with an honest memory assessment. I disagree as any reading/writing I practice outside of WK technically violates this concept (and who really does that anyways?). The fight is to master kanji (not WK) so whatever means you need to do to learn it, I’d say go for it. Check out the Flash card app written by @dslounge that’s a great resource for outside reviews I just saw. Check out your timeline for the coming week. I think the gap between G1 and G2 is the hardest keep an eye on this gap. As long as the integrity for Enlightenment/Burn reviews is honest or not abusing over rides.
- Keep Appreciate ~150 and watch out for high Guru piles before adding lessons. Eventually the repeating wrongs will become correct if you keep them in the pile even if you fail a lot.
- I noticed my reviews went from mid 90s suddenly mid 80s…I was going too fast and trying just to knock down piles (rather than putting in extra time for both lessons and reviews). So a focus on quality rather than quantity has turned this around.
- Enjoy the process rather than fixate on the goal
- Add synonyms to my liking
