I think like you about this subject: the jlpt. In my case there are many reasons why I want this. I think that the JLPT 2 (and then 1) are just a step on my way to do what I want to do... To have a job in Japan and be able to practice everyday my japanese and improve it! So, I think this is a serious goal so I'm preparing to give this exam in order to have more 'weapons' when I visit Japan. My Girlfriend gave the level 2 test and passed it, so I think that if anyone gives its best can do it. Which JLPT did you give? (btw I-m writing from chile)</p> great article!

Having at least level 2 on my resume will put me ahead of others that either don't have it or are at a lower level.</p> <p>Another reason to take it is you'll be taken more seriously by natives. Right now they treat me as my Japanese studies are only a hobby.</p> I’m certainly studying to take the JLPT this year as I don’t want to be forever stuck as an English teacher in Japan.

I’d love to work and live in Japan in the future so I guess that JLPT’s are the way to go for meh!!

Peace out and keep up the good blog!!

It's good to get some useful information about whether the JLPT is or is not the ultimate way to go. Even though I'm only fifteen, ideas about the future are looming over my head; and since I have been studying Japanese for the last five years, naturally the JLPT looks enticing. But your article has cleared up some of my doubt. That is...I don't think I'm gonna take it. xD</p> Doumo arigatou for the heads-up.
