I can’t be doing WK anymore. Not the way its set up. My focus right now is reading and grammar, with some listening. I average a Level every 7-8 days with 98% accuracy on Reviews so it’s hard for me to pump the brakes on such a crack habit I have with the program. I thought “vacation mode” would hel…

Not the answer you’re looking for, but why not just finish WK? You’re almost there. The last 10 levels are “short” levels, which you should be able to pass in less than a week each at your speed. You’re about 2 months from completion. But if your problem is that WK review addition is affecting your…

I wish it’s that simple. It takes about six months for an item to get burned so he really doesn’t have two months left. If the point is just to recognize the Kanji and not burn it then he’s better off creating a dedicated deck in Anki and cut off his losses.

My man. Hooking me up with that forbidden knowledge. Secret is “safe” with me

[image] Lswan: I was referring to reaching Level 60, not burning every single thing in WK. Ok, I just think that it’ll be a waste if you stop your reviews upon reaching level 60 (especially for the Kanji) and not burn them. I’m not familiar with the Mac version of anki but from what I can tel…
