Couldn't have been my GPA; it was top-notch (vastly contrast to my high school GPA). I just really don't know, and it sucks even harder with their (Japan's) views of immigration right now. Which is odd, because they're bringing in people from Pakistan, India, etc and then complaining that they DON'T care enough to respect the culture, language, etc yet they won't bring in Americans who actually DO respect the culture and whatnot.

It's not that I *can't* do well with Japanese, but it's the exams I keep failing (that is, when they're actually offered here). I can speak a bit of Korean (lived there), Mandarin, German, and French as well. Took Spanish for a semester in like middle school. I took and passed all of the Japanese language courses my university offered, but the last class I did was in like, Fall 2014. Even then, it was just barely enough for N4.
