JLPT 2 score
Mar. 12th, 2010 06:06 pm(Note that I went in with no expectation of passing, so there is zero need to express regret about this.)
Writing / Vocabulary: 38/100
Listening: 68/100
Reading / Grammar: 62/200
Overall: 168/400
(A passing score is 60%, or 240.)
This is almost exactly what I was expecting. My listening score is literally only 1 point off what I got on the mock listening test I took at Yamasa. So I haven't gotten much worse in that respect since leaving school, which is something I was concerned about.
I did hold out faint hopes that I might break the 70% mark there, but the sorts of conversations I had in Shibata didn't exactly push my boundaries language-wise. I know a lot more slang now (which makes it much easier to follow anime; obviously, that makes it all worth it), but that doesn't translate well to the test.
My kanji remains, obviously, insanely weak. When I've got access to furigana (or Rikaichan/kun!), I can actually get through long essays fairly quickly now, but the test has only intermittent furigana. So some of my score on reading/grammar reflects kanji!fail, not grammar!fail.
