Last weekend, two days, it was Japan's college entrance examination day.
The full name of the Japanese college entrance examination is "University Admission Common Pass", also known as "Common Examination", which is officially introduced from January 2021, instead of the previous "University Entrance Examination センター試験", which is scheduled to be held every weekend in mid-to-late January. What exactly does the Japanese gaokao look like? Let's take a closer look at the following points.
1. Who is the exam for?
The common test is aimed at high school students in Japan (including international students studying in high school in Japan) and uses this test to check students' learning achievements. In principle, students applying to public universities require common test scores, and almost all private universities also have a "common test usage method" entrance examination that uses common test results.
2. When to take the test?
The 2022 exam will be held on January 15 (Sat) and 16 (Sun)
3. What is the test?
The exam is conducted over two days and candidates will choose from the following subjects to take the exam.
*"Science 1" must choose two subjects to take.
Under normal circumstances, private universities generally require three exams, while public universities require five exams. Each university's website will publish which grades each major needs to provide.
That is to say, candidates do not need to test the subjects described above, as long as they determine in advance what university and major they want to take, and choose the corresponding examination subjects to take the test
4. Application process
Pay the exam fee - fill in the volunteer form - confirm the application information - mail the admission ticket - exam
5. Examination schedule
On the day of the test, it is forbidden to enter the test room after 20 minutes after the start of the test. Where "リスリング(English)" English listening subjects are not allowed to be late.
This year's college entrance examination still sets up a "chase" and a "re-try". For the convenience of students who are unable to take the exam due to illness, accident or personal reasons of last resort.
"Follow-up" image:
1. Candidates who are unable to refer to them due to illness (including influenza, norovirus, covid-19, cold, etc.) and injuries.
2. Candidates who cannot refer to the examination room due to unexpected accidents during the testing room.
3. Candidates who are unable to refer to them due to unavoidable personal reasons (critical illness or death of their parents, fire in their homes, etc.).
In addition, due to natural disasters such as blizzards and earthquakes, the examination cannot be held as scheduled or interrupted, and a "re-try" will be arranged. The timing of "Re-Try" is the same as "Re-Try-Riding".
"Chase and Re-try" exam time:
In addition, due to the recent severe COVID-19 epidemic, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has also urgently issued a new corresponding policy. Students who are unable to take the above two exams can also only take the intramural examinations of each university. If the intramural examination cannot be taken, this part of the students will be given the opportunity to "retake the test".
This is really well thought out!
