JLPT

We're in the season again, in more ways than one. Some of you who took the JLPT (Japanese Langauge Proficiency Exam) a few months ago are just getting your scores now. Others who have signed up for the JLPT this December are anxiously waiting. It's a new test this year, with an added level. This test is a big deal for many, because it means credentials on your resume (or not). I'd like to know, from those who have taken the "new" tests, what your impressions are.
