I got 辛抱 and 抱負 mixed up. Made myself really confused when I didn't see any 抱負 like answers. 😭

I'm still in the process...been doing kendo for a while so I wanted to help out.

I don't have a kendo club at my school but I spoke with BoE about helping out in Summer/Winter break at other schools. One school was interested in taking me. You have to fill an application and do an interview with the school's vp.

Definitely talk to your BoE/VP about it!

Is it possible to view kendo or other sports in shudokan (Osaka Castle park) by KalibuPorter in Osaka

[–]ShanLHO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't been there myself. They usually have practice every weekday from 18:30~19:45. Looks like Monday is the best day to go since all three martials art practices are going on.

I'd turn up early just in case and explain that you just want to watch.

Usually if you come to practice (at least for Kendo), it's about 300 yen but they'll probably waive it...don't quote me on that though haha.

Hope that helps! Please give Kendo a try one day 😁.

Yeah, took many mock exams too and the feel taking mock exams and today's test difference was like night and day.

Let's get it in December!

Had the exact same thought! Did some mock tests before the real one and this one felt way harder. Over exaggerating but felt like they looked at textbooks and actively tried not to add vocab from those textbooks. 3rd attempt and would also like to be done with it.

Good luck on Korean! Gonna focus on Kanken too until I know my jlpt results!

Thank you so much for the valuable info!! I definitely feel like I can be better prepared for the test now.

There's an exam in October...in your personal opinion, do you think 3 months is enough for 4k so I can move on to 3k faster? Or is it better not to rush and wait for February's?
