| My 302 class took the 2003 Level 3 Proficieny test this semester. I think I did okay, but I could've done better. Listening killed me when I did but, then again, this was for extra credit, so maybe I didn't take as seriously. Either way, if I'm going to study abroad, I'm gonna have to take it. |

| I was wondering does anyone know whatyou need to know to take the SAT 2 for Japanese? Oh and Thanks for posting this! In buying study books just 2 days ago online, I was reading the reviews and thought when people spoke about the JLPT's that level 4/3 were hard and 1/2 were easy. Ahhh!! :P |
