I passed

I took level 3 of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) back in December. At this level: "the examinee has mastered grammar to a limited level, knows around 300 kanji and 1,500 words, has the ability to take part in everyday conversation and read and write simple sentences. This level is normally reached after studying Japanese for around 300 hours and after completion of an elementary course." (from the test association's web site).

I never did like this description - "mastered grammar to a limited level"?!? It seems like I am more proficient at the language than this description describes. Oh, well. At least I passed the test.
