[image] Samah: That does raise the question though of what to prioritise: actually be able to speak Japanese or preparing for the exam structure that is the JLPT? Personally im focusing on JLPT but I do feel like in missing out on actual usage of the language. It’s all about priorities I guess! …

Hello! Does the Dublin Ireland test site fill up quickly ? It’s my backup plan in case I don’t get a spot in Paris (I sent my application by post and paid, but the spot is only secured when they say so…) so i’m wondering if I should play it safe and try for Dublin too? Dublin opens on the 8th and…

Hello! I’ve taken the test in Dublin for the last two years and planning to do it again this year. :blush: I would say it’s one of the less competitive centres in Europe, N4 is a popular level but as long as you are on the site on the 8th I don’t think you should have problems getting a slot.

Also feeling under-prepared! I ended up with a slightly complicated September/October for various life/health reasons, so I haven’t done any N4-specific practice. I think I have a couple of quiet weekends coming up so hopefully I’ll get a better sense of where I am soon - the bunpro practice exam is…

I worked through the most of a past paper earlier today and found it educational. 2 things stood out for me: in the kanji / vocab section, the kanji bits felt very manageable but the hiragana bits blew my brain a little. Just so much more used to having the aid of kanji when reading. Need a bit m…
