How close are you trying to get to the translations? I'm aiming for more natural-sounding translations (but still trying to be close to the original). I almost never get even half a sentence that's the same as theirs. My なんとかなる personality means that I don't care if it's the same as long as the meaning is there (and honestly at least half the time I think mine is better). But with the test coming up I feel like I should maybe put some effort into making it sound like the book... Pretty much the same. Sounding natural and conveying the same meaning is better than rigid close to the Japanese IMO, but I'm afraid they will mark points down for it. Ah I don't know what to expect, I guess I'll know after the 1st test.

Also I am so glad I now know what that cheeky huleezu is cheeky huleezuing because it was driving me crazy.

和和和和 my words, I'm sure the CIRHP's very own 和和和和 is 和和和和-edly pleased by how well CIRHP keeps hitting the 和和和和 in terms of Mark-ing down his name repeatedly.

I was told to do mine at home since I didn't have time yesterday at my other office. I just recorded on my phone's recording app (it came already downloaded) and sent them to myself. It was a bit of a pain in the ass cuz I had to send them one by one but it was otherwise quick and easy to do... If i was no yark shark I would do all that i can at the office, upload it then just doing the 通訳 bits at home?

"Companies now use TV screens to conduct job interviews. This leads to the decrease of pickpockets and chikan on trains and now the police have more free time."

Double post, but...
I uploaded all my files and I thought I 終了'd everything, but all of the pages are still marked with the yellow 履修中 mark. I can't figure out if that's normal or if it should be 修了. The tutorial pages are 修了, but is that just because there were no assignments for them?

It's the same for me! I figured it would be like that too until the deadline passes since the last instruction page just says to 確認 we uploaded everything correctly. "Companies now use TV screens to conduct job interviews. This leads to the decrease of pickpockets and chikan on trains and now the police have more free time." ???????????????????/ My thoughts exactly. I thought 暇 has a kind of "bored" meaning to it, so when I first read that I was like, wtf the poor police won't have a job to do??

Have they ever said anything about how or when we're supposed to get our grades back? I assume it would be via the site, but I don't see any page or tab that seems to indicate that and I don't remember that information being anywhere.

I assume it would be via the site, but I don't see any page or tab that seems to indicate that and I don't remember that information being anywhere. There's a schedule in one of the emails they sent us. BOOK1 2015/10/08 2015/11/11 2015/11/25 BOOK2 2015/10/08 2015/12/02 2015/12/16 BOOK3 2015/10/21 2015/12/23 2016/01/18 BOOK4 2015/10/21 2016/01/20 2016/02/03 BOOK5 2015/11/04 2016/02/10 2016/02/24 BOOK6 2015/11/04 2016/03/02 2016/03/16

Oh, yeah, you're right.
... Why does it take so long to grade them? Getting the grades back just one week before the next test is due seems late.
I also just noticed that even though the books contain four weeks of content there's only three weeks between most of the tests.
Thanks, CLAIR. That makes sense.

That made me bite my lip too hue, but I guess technically 20 days of homework < 3 weeks, so... So that's why I am doubling up most days so I can have days off hue.

Yeah, but it's also organized into 5-day weeks.
I am also trying to do that, especially since I'll be out of the office a lot before the next due date.
