Have you read my guide to Wanikani? Specifically chapters 4 to 7. I think they have relevant information for you. There’s no need to ramp up on lessons at the beginning of a level. I think this could be a problem because one’s brain can only absorve that much info at once. If one is doing more lessons than they should, then othe brain might not be able to memorize all of the new content, which will lead to leeches in the future.

> I think most things I tend to make errors often on are things that I find hard to make mneumonics to stick with me, alot of wanikani mneumonics are just odd to me I tend to do many on my own and it works, but for some items I can’t seem to really make any decent one on my own or by wanikani’s recommendation, so I tend to struggle on those more.

This is on chapter 7 of my guide, but in case you’re familiar with scripts, there’s the self-study script that will help you review the items you’re struggling with the most.
