  the change is because some candidates complain that JLPT 2 & 3 are too far apart and cause a high failure rate for level 2

  i think from N5~N2, it's roughly equivalent to JLPT 4~2....but N1 will have a larger syllabus than JLPT 1 ....so up to u to decide if it's more difficult or not

  if u are gonna work in japan....guess usually people study a temporary japanese course and probably take N1 there directly

  Hmmn, I think I'll be taking JLPT N5 this Dec. How long should I learn Jap for to be able to take N5?
