Congrats!:D

I also got 5 on AP japanese, but my Japanese American friend got 4…
Like you, I’m not Japanese. I’m moved from South Korea 4 yrs ago.
It has been 5 years after i decided to study Japanese.
I have been studied JLPT and i didn’t really know about AP Japanese until junior year.
And my taiwanese friend persuaded me to take AP Japanese.
I was taking chinese class also, so i thought i might get 3 or 4…
And…when i took AP japanese exam, i was reading questions on computer screen…
it just disappered in few seconds! i was in hurry…'cuz im slow reader.
i think i did well on reading, but not speaking and writing…(again time limit-_- while i was typing, next problem appeared…)

I watched a lot of dramas, read books/manga in japanese, and spoke to Japanese friends
That helped me a lot.

studying jlpt is also good way to improve your japanese skill.
im currently studying for jlpt level2:) and im going to be senior this fall.

for people who are going to take it, im telling you.
ALWAYS LOOK AT THE TIME!
i missed few problems because of time limit…
and…always make sure about how many words you’re typing…(my friend didn’t know about it at all…cuz she didn’t read the problem carefully…)
