Impressive!
Day 12: 20.5 sec per review
Day 13: 12.8 sec per review
How did you almost double your review tempo?

A large portion of the words that came around for review on day 13 were words which I'd
reviewed multiple times before, I'd originally seen in the Swedish Pimsleur course I
completed prior to this log, or were otherwise easy to recall. I was also a little more
alert on Day 13 than on Day 12 (long day at the office), which probably made the whole
process a little more efficient.

Thanks for those who provided encouragement during this endeavor.
As you can deduce from the charts above, there are a substantial number of reviews in
the upcoming weeks, which I will tend to with diligence. Once this number of reviews
has dropped to a reasonable number (say, 100 per day on average), I will add the next
set of cards to my deck (I purchased the Swedish - English 5000 word book from T&P
books this morning, and have stripped out those words not in the Svenska 3000 deck, to
be added at a later date).
I'm going to continue this on later with the 7000 word and the 9000 word set, which
should take an additional 30 days at 200 new words a day, though this will be pushed
out by the need to take a break at the end of each level until the review count drops.
I've given it some thought over the last few days, and while I could probably jump into
L-R now, as I did with German and French, I'm not going to do that for Swedish. Not
only is this intensive word cramming a lot of fun, but I don't have to think about it -
I just have to load up Anki on my smart phone, take a long walk through the countryside
and just review and learn, review and learn.
And for those who are interested, the average success rate on reviews is currently 77%.
