As of today (Thursday, May 2), this is the breakdown of my SRS levels:


Keeping in mind since I posted the screenshot of my Wednesday reviews, I have guru’d a good number of those 39 radicals and 55 kanji, which unlocked 66 new kanji and vocab!

Level 14 started yesterday and I just got my 1000th enlightened item. I really need to get my gurus down to less than masters.

Ahhh congrats on the 1000th enlightened item @tip! :smiley: It feels so good to hit those round numbers :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Here’s my progress so far:

At least one good thing about taking a break… you pile up burns really quickly :sweat_smile:

OOO you are at almost 700 burns. The differences between our guru and master is about the same. I don’t feel so bad now… just worried those leeches I got to master by brute force are gonna wind up at apprentice again.

Your numbers look amazing. What is your secret? I keep getting some caught in the cycle of hitting master and then getting it wrong.

I feel you. Mine keep going up and down with guru and master, but it’s good to remember that some are moving on to enlightened (and eventually burned). I have some stuck in a cycle and some is just the natural progression.

Do you know how to turn on the subtitles on the video? To be honest, I could not understand what Abe president was saying.

Haha don’t worry, the mnemonics may come to your rescue when you least expect it. If you’re worried about accidentally pushing some words back to apprentice, I recommend using the Self-Study Quiz script! You can use it to review leeches anytime before/after the ‘real’ review, for when the regular SRS isn’t enough to cement it in memory. It’s helped me remember more terms much better. Hope it helps! :smiley:

I have that same issue too actually, I found that only doing the review that WK gives wasn’t enough for me to remember, so I’m using the Self-Study Quiz! I like it since I can practice words as many times as I want regardless of what is queued in the reviews. That, and going over the mnemonics and radicals again to tell them apart has saved me a few times as well. Good luck! :smiley:

On YouTube, there is a closed caption buttons if close captions are available.
Also the speech is on the highest honorific level possible, because ABE is speaking to the Emperor. So it was more a matter of seeing kanji and hearing corresponding sounds than it was about actually understanding what he was saying.

I’m having a major health scare atm and there’s so much waiting. I’ve struggled with WK recently due to it but I’m proud that I keep coming back to do reviews and trying to keep to the habit :slight_smile:

I hope things turn out well. Due you have the speed WK app on your phone? I use it while waiting… If you want to be a purist you can use it just for burned items, but I use it to drill Apprentice in the hope that they will stick better.
