I am going to stop taking language classes next semester. In fact, I think I am done (like no more opportunities in life) to take language classes formally.
BUT I will not quit my quest (please see my About Me).
I am going to try to get this certificate my school offers so that I can tell the world on my resume that I do in fact know Japanese.
In order to get this certificate I either have to take the spring semester of the course I just finished (can't because I have other required classes) OR I pass the placement exam.
Today I was told the placement exam is harder than just taking the class.
I have no choice.
I will have to self study (well, i will hire a tutor to make sure I'm not making stuff up).
The language professor recommended I:
1. look at the spring semester grammar & vocab I will be missing
2. read an article a day in the newspaper and summarize. Don't translate, but get the overall jist of what the article says.
what a mission it is.
