僕もまだなんだけど。。。

明日送ってくるかな

ところでfox1さん、「する」の代わりに「される」を使うのは尊敬語です。まぁ、こういう場合には尊敬語または謙譲語を使う必要はないと思うんだけど。。。

For those who failed,
please don't think that you have failed.

Actually you have learned something...
You gained another yr of experience to take the exam, another yr of more things about japan.

So don't ever feel down cos you failed... i've been through the failure process twice, so i know...

失败是成功的妈妈... LOL

I don't have the basic one but I have the intermediate, which I bought a few years ago, and the advanced version, which I got in Japan last December. I haven't had a chance to read the advanced version yet but the intermediate version is great. I got my book at RRP minus about 10% since I got it through my school in Japan :) I think it converts to somewhere around $55!

I got all of them locally. (;_; ) Really damn ex.
The basic one cost $59.90, intermediate one cost $83.95, and the advance one cost $78.10.
Prices might have changed.
Be assured that it will be money well spent if you are serious about learning Japanese.
Really the best grammar books for learning Japanese. ;)

Another book I would recommend to beginner learners is this.
A bit old though but still serve its purpose well.

Just received mine. Passed level 1 again but this time is the worst result I ever received... :(
Just scored 316/400. I knew listening was screwed up as the guy beside me kept on coughing during the test and I had to resort to intelligent guessing for quite a number of the questions.
Will work harder this year.

試験に合格された皆様、おめでとうございます!
これから受験される皆様、頑張って下さい。
316/400 is already very good le....

I think i might still take a while to reach ur level...

Not really happy with my results though... Might be re-taking my 2.

uhm i dun believe self-study for 1 week only without going for any courses and not taking jlpt before can land u 338 at 1st try for jlpt1.

are u sure it's not jlpt4?
Actually, my friend did just that. But then again, he spent a good 6 years or so reading comics and then progressing to novels, all on his own.

Just like a baby learning a language bah, some people just have it in them still. Really tedious process though.

Hmmm, I have never taken seriously in learning the language myself because I thought it was an extremely daunting task to do it alone. I only started learning Japanese seriously when I enrolled with a school a few years ago.

I guess I'm just lazy, need some teacher to spoon feed me, point me to the right direction.

But hey, here I am now, better than before, still got a long way ahead of me.

Regards.

Congrats to those who passed.

Self study is possible with the correct materials and exposure.Though not recommended for most people.
But that guy(i lazy to quote)...sounds abit too genius and fictional to me ...lolz...Unless you are a Japanese or your family is a Japanese speaking one.
