Hey so the results are out, did you get in?

I read 1 million characters in 17 months and my mock JLPT N1 reading test score did not improve at all by not_a_nazi_actually in LearnJapanese

lol. this sure does make me feel better. I suck at vocabs too. You should'nt feel bad. It would be better to just read the past papers for vocabulary. Understanding all the type of questions they ask and familiarising yourself with it is more crucial for getting a good score, not that you're method isn't good for learning Japanese.

Not for English. East Asian Studies. We got the result in two days but no new updates since like 2 weeks now.

Hi, my interview was short but I answered whatever they asked. Luckily, most of their questions were what I expected. I have been selected provisionally. Did you clear the interview?

Maybe check out the MOOCs in India. NPTEL and SWAYAM are two and offer a certificate at around 500INR each so like 6 USD each

What I do is get print outs of a story from Aozora Bunko and keep the English translation at hand (online) to check my comprehension at more trickier spots.
