How many leeches is healthy?

[jprspereira]

I don’t think there’s really a number for it. I usually prefer to see if my accuracy stays up. Usually a big part of the items we get wrong are our leeches after all. So I always try to give a quick review in the summary page after reviews.

But reviewing leeches is always a good thing imo. Here’s which scripts I use:

@jprspereira

• Self-Study Quiz: Have you ever wished to review a certain type of items from a specific level? This is it. This script allows you do an extra and personalized reviewing of any items you learn on WK. Do not worry, as this script will not influence the SRS level of items.
• WaniKani Open Framework Additional Filters: This script serves as an upgrade to the Self-Study one I mentioned above. Basically, it will add filters such as “most recent items learned” and “leeches” (most difficult items for you) to your Self-Study script. For the distance of just a couple clicks, you can get all the extra reinforcement on the items you need the most

You can review them every day or choose one day that you have more free time. I used to do the former but now I do the latter. It’s one less worry to have every day.
