Ah, dang it. Thanks for the reminder. I’ve been using the script so long (with no success to speak of 🤣) that I forgot about those. Though it’s all relative because that just means the next level would be a little shorter on account of you having done those before you level up. ---

But that was with a script to optimize the process a bit (linked to below). * * * > [@Held](#): > > 80 - 95 isn’t that bad Oh man, I probably average about 70% these days. Anything over 80% is pretty good in my opinion. * * * > [@konekush](#): > > You can also change lesson ordering to Ascending then Shuffled, which means the harder vocab lessons would be interspersed with easier radicals and kanji. > [@KaedeHaru](#): > > I’m not sure how to change my lesson order. If you don’t mind using scripts, another option is to use Lesson Filter. It will let you mix radical, kanji, and vocab lessons together in whatever combination you want. That way you can mix stuff you find easier and stuff you find harder together, instead of having days of easy stuff followed by days of hard stuff. Just make sure you do 2-3 times as much vocab as kanji, or you’ll start to build a backlog. > [@\[NO LONGER SUPPORTED\] \[Userscript\] WaniKani Lesson Filter](https://community.wanikani.com/t/userscript-wanikani-lesson-filter/19023): > > warning This is a third-party script/app and is not created by the WaniKani team.

I do about 30 new items a week, depending on my work schedule and my energy level. If it gets to be too much, l scale back. If they’re easy, l add more. I take a few weeks to level up. I would rather go slowly so it is still fun, instead of burning out. Sometimes l look ahead of time at new radicals. It really helps. ---

And l would be THRILLED to usually get over 80% consistently on my reviews. My results are all over the map, but often in the 70’s and 80’s. Once in a while l see the coveted 100%, but more often than l would like to admit, the 60’s or even below, especially if I have recently woken up😊. ---
