Hi! I’m new here and I have been wondering how many items people usually have at the apprentice level. I’m sure it varies widely but I’d be curious to here from people about what they prefer! I remember seeing in the wanikani FAQ or something that they suggested getting your apprentice levels under…

I’m not sure, but I think it’s above 100 most of the time. Right now [image] I don’t mind the number of reviews. It doesn’t take that long to guru items I feel. Perhaps, I’ll change strategy in the future, but for now, this seems to be okay. :slight_smile:

I vary between 80 and 125. However I wonder how long it will last. My master items will soon begin to review for enlightened and I will start to fail some of these reviews. The number of leeches will increase.

Between 250 - 350, usually it’s close to 300.

[image] Omun: Always nice to see more people join in on the obsession for check lists learning fun! The checklists fuel me :joy: It’s so nice to see everything I’m getting done, so satisfying to be able to understand quickly what I need to do next. [image] Omun: Consistency is a huge boo…

Oh neat! Where can I find the script?

I like to be below 100 items, with all items app3 or higher, before doing new lessons. And then I like to not exceed 120. I do lessons based on review load projections for the day. How many I feel I can handle that day.

I’ve found that about 100 reviews per day is about right which means keeping apprentice items at or below 70. When they creep up into the 80s is when it starts to get harder to keep up and accuracy falls. Which means that I haven’t seen 0 lessons in months.

I was doing that minimum 100-120 life but life came fast and now I find myself more comfortable around 40-70. Once it falls to below 70, I try to do a session of 5 new lessons at least once a day (twice or more if I remember). But I forget a lot so sometimes I’ll get down to like 38 apprentice items…

I aim for 60 to 100, 20 ~100 reviews and ~20 lessons a day. Seems low but I can clear a level near max speed at 8 days.

I’m planning on keeping mine around 100 until I start getting burn reviews and have a feel for the full volume of reviews that entails. Somewhere in the forum guides is a good graph showing workload not hitting its peak until around 6 months in, so I don’t want to store up a problem for further down…
