First, the qualification examination for studying abroad
In principle, there is no condition for candidates to study abroad in Japan, but Japanese universities hope that the candidates are those who have completed higher education abroad and have reached the age of 18, so it is suggested that candidates can also meet this condition.
Of course, it is not excluded that some cases are just to test the language level. This kind of person usually applies for studying abroad for reasons other than studying abroad, so he can only get a notice of score in the end, but the score is not certified (telling you that you have this language ability).
Second, the scoring criteria
In order to avoid the unfairness caused by difficulty, the Japanese study abroad experiment is based on the theory of item solution, that is, the statistical theory of solution.
In this way, the difference in the difficulty of the problem can be avoided, resulting in a more favorable or unfavorable situation. Using this scoring standard is the same as the current TOEFL and TOEFL exams.
Third, the total score of each subject in the international student examination
Japanese: 400 points
Comprehensive liberal arts: 200 points
Liberal arts mathematics: 200 points
Science synthesis: physical chemistry and biology are two out of three, with a total score of 200 points 100.
Science mathematics: 200 points
It can be seen that Japanese scores account for a large proportion. If students' Japanese scores are low, it is easy to cause a total score gap, especially for liberal arts students. It is much more difficult to get high marks in Japanese than to get N 1 in Japanese proficiency test. Japanese test is divided into listening comprehension, reading comprehension, listening comprehension and narration, and the test time is 125 minutes (including 30 minutes of narration). Due to the scoring rules of Japanese foreign students' exams, the full score of each exam is not fixed. In the past, Japanese subjects got a perfect score of about 370. But there are many foreign words to remember in physics, chemistry and biological clock of science.
Fourth, the recognition of staying in the exam.
Japanese institutions that have accepted the results of the Japanese study abroad exam: about 400; Short-term university: about 80; University: about 40; College: 100 or so.
The validity period of examination results is usually two years, but it depends on the university you apply for.
The regulations of each university are different, so it is necessary to confirm the recruitment requirements of each university in advance.
Candidates are free to choose the one with the highest score in the two exams to enter the university, but they can only focus on the results of the same exam. For example, you can't submit the math scores of 1 cycle and the Japanese and science scores of the second cycle in the same year.
In addition, some universities will indicate the results of a specific exam in the current year or the previous year when enrolling students, which requires candidates to consult the university about the specific situation.
