I'm learning Japanese using the fluent forever method (pronunciation first + spaced repetition).
I am a native speaker of Norwegian and English and fluent through traditional study in Spanish.
This market resolves to whatever level of JN proficiency (and all lower levels) I have achieved based on the assessment of a qualified expert, according to the definitions given here:

1,000Oh, good luck! Curious to see how you fare. I've studied a bit of Japanese through high school & college due to an obsession with anime/manga, which culminated in me running a scanlation team and then building https://scanlate.io/. Never figured out where I would fall on JLPT though (I assume, not very high)
Betting a bit of NO as incentive 😈
@Austin Necropost, but I think a good check is to ask yourself to write comments in Japanese. In my opinion, I think N3 is being barely functional, N2 is being a bit slow or hard with some more complex but still important words （e.g. 昇華, 集計, 鮮やか, 梢, 刺繍 hope this list is ok at giving the general vibe of things N2 may not know but N1 might), and N1 is just about everything but idioms, slang, poetry, oldspeak, and technical stuff (think 臨界点、国内総生産、重合、茜、積分)
