A mock test is a diagnostic, not a rehearsal
The most common mistake people make with practice tests is treating the score as the point. It isn't. A score tells you one number; the paper underneath it tells you which grammar patterns you have half-learned, which kanji you recognise but cannot read, and whether your listening collapses when the speaker changes their mind mid-sentence.
Both the JLPT and JFT-Basic have sectional minimums. On the JLPT you must score at least 19 out of 60 in every scoring section regardless of your total, which means a candidate can score well above the pass mark overall and still fail. That is why the per-section table on your results screen matters more than the percentage above it.
So: sit the test once, cold and timed. Read every explanation. Write down thepatterns you missed rather than the questions. Then leave it two weeks before retaking — a test you half-remember measures your memory, not your Japanese.
