Scaling the review mountain part 5 - the light at the end of the tunnel

I did really badly this morning and was sorely tempted to quit early, but then WK lost connection and forced the issue anyway.

Last time I checked on this thread you were at 800+. That’s amazing! :open_mouth:

You’re still in the game. I crunched some numbers and it looks like you can get the queue knocked out in about 5 weeks, at 100 items per session, 72% accuracy. I think when you get your burned items to about 5700, or hit level 49, you should make a new, and final thread for this saga :slight_smile:

72%? Wow, you’re so optimistic :P. I guess we’ll see. Based on past experience, I think it will take longer, just because it always seems to plateau after a while due to more and more of the remaining reviews being leeches.

In any case, today was pretty bad, but I’m now down to nine kanij to level up.

I considered stopping early near the end and was so distracted that I accidentally went over instead. Anyway, six kanji to go to level up (yes, I randomly hit three this morning, plus one Apprentice kanji).

Possibly they only had two minutes to spend on wanikani, and so did as much as they can in that time period. :slight_smile:

I follow this thread because I feel like I’m watching Rocky (though I haven’t watched it in decades, so I might already have forgotten the real plot line and confused it with other action flicks).

But Rocky III’s theme song is what I imagine as the BGM for this thread.
