Picking Up Japanese Again

Hey guys,
So during my undergrad I minored in Japanese and 2 years ago went to Japan. Its been super long since I've actually had to use it and I'm super rusty again. Anything you guys can recommend for peeps starting again?

If you just need to practice again, I've heard a lot of good things about an app called Hi Native! It lets you talk/ask questions to native speakers of languages. I heard Memrise is good for practicing vocab, and I've tried it but I can't find the way to get all the lesson for free. Still might be worth a shot, though! Duolingo's Japanese course seems perfect for practicing the language if you already have studied it to a degree! If your hiragana or katakana is somehow rusty, I recommend the app Dr.Moku since it lets you practice them in a lot of ways that other apps don't offer (the quiz option has been super helpful for me). If you just need a way to study vocab/kanji again (or anything else that could be put onto flashcards) I recommend the app Cram, since you can make your own flashcards with text, photos, and hints (then play games with them or use different study modes). You can even save and use flashcard sets made by other people if you search for a specific topic!

Peachie: thanks for the recommendations. I'll look into them and see which one i like more.
Beserker: One of my friend from college days was chinese and he said for the basic stuff it worked but as we got more advanced it didn't help as much. I did take Mandarin a looooong time ago and i can agree some of it did help with recognizing kanji

This is a book about common kanjis used in Japanese I collected in the past, though I don't really need it because I'm quite familiar with Chinese characters.

Though you don't take N3 test, you may take a look at this book.It is written in four languages: Japanese, English, Chinese and Korean.
