After 6 years of studying, I finally passed the Japanese Language Proficiency Test N2 level.

Today, I want to share with you how I prepared for the exam, how I learned from my previous failure in 2022, and talk about the successes I had and the mistakes I made this time round.

Hopefully this episode will be interesting and useful to anyone out there thinking about taking an English exam in the future!
