JLPT 2 2008/2009

For anyone wondering where all the posts discussing 十二国記 disappeared to, look in the History and Literature Discussion subforum for the 十二国記 discussion thread.

Well, it's a bit of a challenge, but I'm thinking of recording myself when reading my piece for next week and then put in on YouTube for a while for FB
(showing only my pc or my cats ruining the place, of course)

I thought it would be nice if we all did this.....?

[caroline]

Nice idea, but I will have to disappoint my cats, sorry, because I won't do it....(time to do it even half seriously is just not there)
You can do my part, if you feel so inclined, I won't mind.

[katafei]

well, my last lingering hopes of having passed JLPT2 have just been squashed


Writing/Vocab: 63 /100 points
Listening: 41/100 points
Reading/Grammar: 123/200 points

All in all 227/400 points...

It's so frustrating, because I really think my listening skills are not that bad at all....

Oh well, better next year.....In Rome ^_^

「Uh-oh~」 とテレタビーズは言いました。

Someone from the other forum commented jokingly:
"Good luck with the 2級.
2級 is what separates the men from the boys, 1級 separates the Gods from the men."

Anyways, it's not that terrible, I think it's still a good score on reading/grammar. I'm not even sure I can score more than 100 points for that section. The more I try on the exercises, the more I feel like I'm a girl. Don't know when I will be separated from the girl. >_<''

Try again this year?

[katafei]

You probably do not want to be seperated from ´the women´

And yes, this year: Rome!!
Another one of those places I would really like to see!

And yes again, I am quite happy with the other scores although it´s prob more luck than knowledge. It takes me ages to read sth....
I got a nice note from my sensei, which unintentionally included some JLT2 grammar, I´ll post it later (am at work right no, so no Kana.... )

[caroline]

Sorry for you, Katafei, but at least you took a try, not like some others (I mean myself)...
and selfishly, you have one more reason to stick to the 12 国記。。。
Not so bad results, after all!

[katafei]

Yeah, it would have been nice if I had passed, but I would have done JLPT2 again this year anyway.

This is what my sensei wrote:
級の結果は残念でしたね。　でも内訳の夫々の
得点を見るとそんなにがっかりすることはないですね。
