Hello Everyone, I had a kanji at guru level. It just popped up in a review after a long absence, and I got it wrong. Looks like it got bumped all the way down to apprentice 1 - is that how it works? I guess it makes sense, I need to review it a few times to get it stuck back in there, but ouch! My…

Generally speaking, it shouldn’t go back to Apprentice 1, though I don’t know exactly what the formula is (someone has it I’m sure). If you check the item page, it should tell you how long until that item appears and that will tell us which stage it’s on.

It says it will be back to haunt me in 3 hours. Also, when I look at it on wkstats.com , it says Apprentice 1. Well, all of this conversation will help me remember 丁, I’m sure. Thanks!

The FAQ is correct in that it matters how many times you got it wrong during the review, but I’m pretty sure that formula / table is no longer accurate.
