Are you sure you didn’t mean already?
In order to level up, you need to guru at least 90 % of the level’s kanji. Usually, you need to guru the radicals first in order to unlock enough kanji to level up. Given the following SRS interval charts:
|SRS Level|Next Level|Total Wait|Review|
—|—|—|—|—|—
|Apprentice 1|4h|-|Lesson|
|Apprentice 2|8h|4h|1|
|Apprentice 3|~1d|12h|2|
|Apprentice 4|~2d|1d 11h|3|
|Guru 1|~1w|3d 10h|4|
|Guru 2|~2w|1w 3d 9h|5|
|Master|~1M|3w 3d 8h|6|
|Enlightened|~4M|7w 5d 7h|7|
|Burned|-|24w 6d 6h|8|
You need 3 days and 10 hours to guru the radicals + 3 days and 10 hours to guru the kanji, leading to a ideal level-up time of 6 days and 20 hours.
However, for some levels (the ones @Arban completed under 5 days), you already unlock more than 90 % of the kanji right away, so the ideal level-up time drops to 3 days and 10 hours, but only for these levels.
I can say that I took N2 right after hitting 60 and passed. Granted I took longer to reach 60 (a year and a half), but I had no background before that. And my vocab score was like 50/60, by far the strongest part. Jah bless wanikani.
Damn, N2 in 18 months is quite impressive. 4 years and still N3…
But you did do grammar and reading and so beside WK right? How much of that (and what), if I may ask?
WOW !
That’s incredible ! well done.
Did you study the kanji in between reviews, or do you just have an awesome memory?
Seriously impressive achievement.
Congrats!
Where’d you find that data?
Congratulations! The fast levels are no joke. Also impressed that you managed a decent level of grammar at the same time (you might think it wasn’t enough but N3 is way more than I managed). Good luck keeping on.
All 60 levels in just a year - I don’t know if that is amazing or disgusting. A bit of both I think. Most impressive.
I’ve been living in Japan for two years so it’s kind of cheating haha. But if you push through a little more of WK I’m sure you’ll be at N2 in no time
Yeah, I live in Japan so I’ve gotten a fair bit of listening and reading exposure through everyday life. Grammar’s hardest for me but I really like the kanzen master books. (And love tae kim for the earlier stuff). Once I finished WK I also started reading harry potter on kindle which has been pretty enjoyable; the built in Japanese->English dictionary makes it very doable.
All you guys living in Japan //jealous
Wanna too!
That being said, keep up the good work!
Congratulations!
And omg, such insane dedication, you are my idol
I’m new here btw (my first post). Now I feel even more motivated to work hard
Me too Kalas, but that’s okay, we’ll get there at our own speed
Congrats! I hope I’ll get there anytime
Guess what!? I’m golden-level-sixty!
Coming back here to report that finally I can see my golden badge on my avatar…
