EXAM OVERVIEW

Know the exam before you train

Review the question bank and training sections, then start training.

Where the questions come from

Questions are adapted from past entrance papers of Japanese graduate schools, drawn from over a hundred universities across difficulty tiers and organized by school tier and subject area; overall they run slightly harder than the originals. Beyond the core subjects, the bank also includes optional subjects that some schools set in this field's entrance exam (for example: economics, psychology, education, and language and culture). Choose the subject areas and difficulty tier that fit your own target.
