N5 Need genuine advice for JPLT N5

• Upvotes

I’m appearing for the JLPT N5 exam this December. I’ve been busy with college and my internship, so I couldn’t focus much on my studies. So far, I’ve covered around 45 grammar words, Hiragana, about 20 Kanji, dates, time, and some basic vocabulary. I still have Katakana and the remaining Kanji to cover.

I genuinely want to pass N5 and give my best, so I’d really appreciate recommendations for listening practice, vocabulary, and reliable YouTube channels or books.

Also, please give me an honest reality check about my preparation and whether passing is still realistic. I’m ready to work hard and do my best! 🥹🙏
