I might take the level 4 this year, even if I'm not ready.
It's been years since I took the test (passed level 2 in 2000) but way back when I was told that level 4 was super simple. I took level 3 once and it wasn't too bad either. There is a big jump between 3 and 2 though! What I'm trying to say though is that you might want to skip level 4 and try level 3, even if you don't think you're ready yet. Of course, practice tests will give you a good idea.
I really want to take 3q this year but I am having difficulty in finding study time or online practice exams. I took care of 4q in 2003 but doing 3q AND not being in the Japanese is a bit taxing for me.
*Btw I went to the Japan Foundation website however the 2007 JLPT app wasn't up yet. Has anyone else discovered that? I know it is always up and running for Japan (as in early) but when will the US app be available?
I took and passed level 1 on my first try back in 2001, back when we didn't have these fancy DS thingamabobs. :) I used workbooks from Amazon Japan: 日本語能力試験に出る[文法/漢字/文字・語彙]1級 and 日本語能力試験1級に出る重要単. Four books in all. As I recall, they're available for the other levels, too.
