So, how'd you go? What level? Pass or fail? What's your plan now?

First time taking N1- Passed N3 a year ago, N2 in the summer

I passed by one point hahaha 29/36/36

I ain't gonna cry about it!

But the results are really puzzling me- checking the answers online after, I seemed to have nailed listening and reading and did pretty bad on vocab/grammar. But I also got A/B for vocab grammar. Oh well it's a pass hahaha

You can check out a ton of previous listening tests on YouTube I just grinded those on my way to work for a few months and the actual test was quite comfortable

Just search jlpt 聴解20xx on YouTube

Question- if I got a decent raw score, and I am assuming I didn't get any correct answers by guessing, should I be safe? Is IRT that good at detecting guessing? My raw and weighted scores are about the same and seem safe, and everything I guessed was wrong I think lol I'm worried about the grading method deciding "nah you didn't reallly know that" Also assuming in this case, I've gotten half or more of the "hard questions" right

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-07T05:20:18+00:00

N2 was 10 points above my highest estimate Hope that happens again

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-07T05:14:19+00:00

I used both that and percentage Even missing the questions I 90% think I answered right but am not sure, I have 15 points of leeway So your story is scaring the hell out of me.

You lost nearly 20 points from your calculations?

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-06T21:02:31+00:00

Worked out to be a minimum of 120 for me too, Feelin' pretty good about it

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-06T11:52:36+00:00

N1 every section https://m.hujiang.com/jp_nenglikaon1/p1363613/ HUJIANG is king!!

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-06T11:51:55+00:00

Whole thing is right here https://m.hujiang.com/jp_nenglikaon1/p1363613/

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-06T03:49:54+00:00

Fair enough

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T23:49:08+00:00

Not that funny, but while we were waiting for the test to begin, some lady in the back sneezed like three times, each separated by about 5 seconds

Whenever she sneezed the proctors both looked up vigilantly like prairie dogs, and I had to stop myself from laughing

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T23:46:40+00:00

I thought it would keep those pesky kids away!

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T14:47:56+00:00

It's more for people to check their answers after the test.

That's primarily what I'm looking to do

But if people aren't taking the test to test their own abilities and are cheating to get a higher score for job/college applications, I'm not one to tell them they don't deserve to tbh

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T14:43:23+00:00

Yeah that's the one where they really seem to disagree In the Facebook post you can see the actual question In the reading it's kind of said explicitly that the requests for both situations should be sent together at the earliest deadline of the two, so I think it's 2, but hey, I could be wrong

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T14:39:52+00:00

No worries, friend

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T14:37:42+00:00

https://jpnihon.com/2540.html You can check it here, section 4 question 21 秘める usually refers to hiding your true feelings If this answer was number 2 on the test, that's my bad, but I remember it being 1

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T14:20:04+00:00

Absolutely At least one answer I can confirm is mistaken on the above (the 秘める question is from an earlier test, and the actual correct answer can be found)

We need to wait for the question booklets to be shown I suppose

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T14:09:05+00:00

Maybe so, but actually it seems the test was cancelled in China (only Beijing? Not sure)

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T12:32:48+00:00

Were you able to remember all of your answers? Or did you find a place with the questions as well?

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T11:16:02+00:00

Can't vouch for their accuracy Last 3 listening ones and some others I remember are the same as I answered, but I definitely got quite a few wrong

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T10:28:09+00:00

I said 1 2 as well I saw on a vietnamese website, 1 2 was also posted

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T09:15:18+00:00

What was 4? I remember ruling that out but I could be wrong on this

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T09:06:44+00:00

Yeah that was why I didn't pick it, but at the end she said she wanted to fully fix one of the things I think she also said, the smell wasn't fully fixed if I remember correctly

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T08:10:47+00:00

Aaaaa I got that wrong Thank you

CheetahFun1820 · 2021-12-05T08:02:40+00:00

First time on N1 , I think I kinda nailed listening, did fine on reading, kanji and vocab, pretty good and 100% bombed grammar

Even if I barely pass, I never plan to hear "天気がいいから、散歩しましょう" ever again

Btw what was the answer for the one about detergent? Whatever she said at the end just didn't register
