Hi there fellow WaniKani learners! Hope you’re doing well. Thank you for stopping by to read! Too long, didn’t read/summary is at the bottom.^3^ Life got in the way again, and by the time I was ready to come back to studying kanji, I was buried under hundreds of reviews as well as forgetting and no…

Keep apprentice under 100 and you will be fine. If you need more do more lessons, if you need less, do less lessons. Also get an app and run wanikani on your phone, always some time to kill here and there. You can get through quite a bit while taking a dump.

In one year, at 5 lessons per week, you won’t even finish Level 3. There’s 81 lessons in Level 1, 150 in Level 2, 120 in Level 3 = 351 (5x52=260) In one year, at 10 lesson per week, you’ll get near the end of level 4 (Level 4 = 182 lessons). (total of 533 lessons) I think you’ll find that even at …

I had a bad memory, and I’m doing it three times a day and still struggle with keeping it under 30 minutes or less. I use the 100 apprentice limit, but I don’t do WK alone and overlearning it on iKnow and reading. So I think you would need to limit your apprentice to 80 or lower for more convenience…

I’m not sure if this will help, but honestly there’s no magic about it. If you do your reviews every day and make sure to keep on top of them, sruff will end up less than 30 minutes. Every level is either 70 to 100/150 topics long and if you keep on it that’s easily under 30 minutes. I’m on a pretty…

Hi jinglymoo, Here’s one thought that might help: You don’t have to finish all of your reviews every time you sit down with Wanikani. If you only have 30 minutes, just do reviews for those 30 minutes. If you finish all your reviews in those 30 minutes, do lessons until the 30 minutes are up. It’…

Honestly, I have a lot of trouble keeping a lot of information in my head and I’m not in any kind of race. I tried going a little harder and burned out and stepped away from the site for a really long time. I came back because I knew I wanted to learn the stuff, and so my thing right now is to keep …

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and methods with me! I am similar, I studied in uni and overall have been studying on and off for years. I realistically cannot be super fast like so many others. >< I do hope I find a reasonable pace though. I’m glad you came back! I really wish you lu…

LOOL. You’re absolutely right, I often get things done on my phone during toilet time, so why not incorporate WaniKani? Those are good ideas, thank you! I’ll keep this in mind. I did just recently get an app and it’s definitely super helpful for studying on the go, though I prefer the PC version. Ho…

Slow durtle here due to being booked and busy. I keep my Apprentice under 50 and generally do 2 lessons a day (meaning I learn 10 new things a day). Only variation is when I get to a new level and get radicals, I usually bust through those to get to the Kanji. I think pacing yourself is just super …

Welcome to the forums, Mogumogusan! Thank you so much for your advice, I really appreciate seeing an example of someone else who is making it work. I realize from reading some other replies I may be underestimating how much material I can go through in a week especially with the help of a phone app …
