ps. yea J10 doesn't get u near enough to JLPT1 level, must study!. for ppl trying JLPT2, J7-8 is sufficient

I did J10 and JLPT2 a couple of years ago. In my experience, it seems that dedicated self-study is necessary to achieve fluency—although manga, anime and games are great to practise reading/listening with!
