A revised test pattern, originally scheduled to be implemented from December 2009, has been postponed until 2010. The revised test will consist of five levels: N1, N2, N3, N4, and N5, with N1 being the highest level and N5 the easiest.

* N1: the same passing level as the original level 1, but able to gauge slightly more advanced skills, possibly through equating of test scores
* N2: the same as the original level 2
* N3: in between the original level 2 and level 3
* N4: the same as the original level 3
* N5: the same as the original level 4

The revised test will continue to test the same categories as the original, but the first and third sections of the test will be combined into a single section. Sections on oral and writing skills will not be introduced.

Another good location. Daiso at IMM, books section, there are those picture books for toddlers learning how to read. Each book is numbered, and in categories like transportation, animals, occupation, parts of the body, and gradually into storytelling territory.

Try that and let us know.

im studying at bunka. i think it is very important to be taught by native japanese to train your listening skills in particular. unless you are studying japanese ONLY to pass exams, JLPT etc rather than being truly fluent in the language. you can train your speaking skills even at lower levels, every lesson take the initiative to have a conversation with your sensei for 5 min. you can do this before/after class or during break. some people very quiet and shy, then they wont learn. it's not how much effort the school puts in, it's how much effort you put in.

i got a friend studying at JCS. seems scary cos the modules are 1 year long and you need to pass the year end exam before you can continue. if you fail then ta pau 1 year?

anyway don't mind if i mention that i'm selling a kodansha furigana E/J J/E japanese dictionary, hardcover $70. if u buy at kino its around $110 or $90+ with kino membership :) http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/showthread.php?t=2608648
