^^ so the textbook isnt of much use? lol
Awwww i hope the oral isnt too hard :/ what did you do for your detailed study??
I plan to learn all grammar, kanji and particle use this summer
And i dont play online games

VCE textbooks are terrrrrrrrrrrrrrible /rant

[Greatness]

Is there any supplementary texts that you would suggest?
And what dictionary do you think is the best??

[t3nsai]

LOL use the text books.. I was too lazy to do the work XD and hence I had limited vocabulary and grammar in my head (which probably affected my listening skills) and I did Kyuushoku for my detailed studies. Orals isn't hard practice heaps and in the oral exam, time flies very quick.

[Greatness]

Oohhhh did they ask and difficult questions about Kyuushoku??

What are some good detailed study topics??

Everyone in my class has to do Onsen as their Detailed Study, it's been like that for the past 382901839210 years at my school

My school uses that Kodansha Furigana Japanese Dictionary if you were curious~
Does every school use the red kookoo seikatsu book? do you guys use anything else? Our teacher makes us have weekly vocab quizzes based on the "Lets go Tango!" book

*edit*

not to mention that we finished that purple Kanji book in yr 11

[Greatness]

@ Furbob:
Yeah we use the red workbook as well, the dictionary we use in the oxford beginners jap. dictionary.
We finished the purple kanji book as well. It sucks that you all have to do the same detailed study... (well it does imo)

I think Kyuushoku is the easiest detailed study and a lot of people do it. So unless you wanna stand out, pick a different detailed study ?

Regarding dictionary, I used the oxford from year 8-10, then the fat green jisho for vce.

don't be like me and not touch the purple kanji book. my kanji book is like half brand new XD. Same goes for the red text book! lol I don't know why I said that since who on atarnotesforums would do what I did.

[Greatness]

hehe my kanji book is pretty much complete, except i havent ddone all those exercises at the back :/ are those worth doing?

i havent bought my red book yet. but im starting to write up a book where i put all the kanji, grammar points, vocab etc hoppefully that will help

[Furbob]

nice nice, I finished the purple book all during the term 2 holidays this year to move onto more (non-VCE) kanji because im a nerd like that The exercises at the back are good in case you are paranoid about forgetting the kanji - but if you're confident with them then it's no biggie

[Greatness]

Shizzas have you memorised all the VCE kanji??? becoz i havent even started to try yet.

[Furbob]

I never had a problem with kanji, 150 + 50 for recognition isn't that many imo

speaking of kanji, when I did the MUEP placement test I noticed in the kanji quiz that there were kanji that were not on the VCE list such as 終わる　（おわる） but luckily I was prepared for any kanji really

I've personally made a "kanji poster" myself and have stuck it on my toilet door, you should try it LOL

Hmm poster idea sounds good How big did was it? Like how big did you write the kanji?

Also do relative clauses come up much in VCE jap?

[Furbob]

I categorized my kanji poster into "family" (eg.　母、父、兄） "te-hen particles" (eg. 押、持、撮） and so on with different colours 'cause im a girl and I like colours in all of my work

The kanji on my poster are slightly bigger than my thumb but the main point is that it needs to be big enough to see

If you just plan to fit the VCE kanji then you can make them much bigger since I crammed A LOT (500-ish) on my poster.

[Greatness]

Whoa dedication right there I will definitely remember the 200 VCE ones, is it really beneficial to learn any other ones? Because they can only put VCE kanji in exams right?

I shall make a poster when im done with my jap homework :@ Hopeful to get it done tonight or by tomorrow

What study score are you aiming to achieve?
