To pass JLPT N3, consistent exposure to grammar in context is more effective than memorising lists alone. Use the grammar lessons above as a reference, work through the reading passages regularly, and add the vocabulary lessons and kanji drills alongside. When you feel ready, check yourself with a full N3 mock test (Mock 01 is free).
If certain N3 grammar points feel difficult, reviewing N4 foundations first often helps. New grammar lessons and reading exercises are added to this page on an ongoing basis.
