Advanced Japanese for Proficiency I

Catalog description

This course is designed for students with an advanced background in Japanese who are interested in taking the N2 or N1 of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT). All participants are required to take the JLPT (N1 or N2) administered in December. A strong foundation in grammar, an extensive vocabulary, and knowledge of at least 800-900 kanji characters are required. This course does not continue any existing intermediate or advanced-level Japanese courses; therefore, grades from those courses do not qualify you for enrollment. Eligibility will be determined through an interview and a placement test, which will be administered during the first meeting. All students enrolled in this course must take the JLPT in December. JLPT registration typically begins in early August.
