I’m thinking I’ll take the jlpt this year (not for any reason besides wanting to) and I’d like to start getting a feel for the structure of the test and what kinds of questions they ask. What resources would people recommend for specifically test prep, e.g. practice tests, collections of sample questions, grammar point review, etc. thanks!

I believe the best JLPT prep is by actually doing past tests.

It’s ultimately from a Chinese website so navigating may be difficult. But generally every test contains original test (some may not be formatted well), answers, answer explanation (written in Chinese I think but you can ignore), and transcript of listening section. Let me know if there’s more question.
This is my favourite practice tests book. It has 3 practice tests with explanations for all the right and wrong answers and audio scripts. I found the tests to be harder than the official practice test and even a tiny bit harder than the real test, which is a good thing. https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/gp/product/4789017540/
