Japan's college entrance examination system is called "National College Entrance Examination", or "National College Entrance Examination" for short. This is a national unified examination, which is used to evaluate whether students have the basic academic ability to enter universities. The unified examination is divided into two stages: the first stage is "subject test", which mainly tests students' knowledge of mathematics, English and science; The second stage is the "second test", which mainly tests students' professional knowledge and logical thinking ability.

* * * There are many forms of general tests, including multiple-choice questions, fill-in-the-blank questions and answers. The examination time is generally two days, and the daily examination time ranges from 80 minutes to 120 minutes. The content of the exam covers all subjects in high school, such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, history, politics, economy, literature, foreign languages and so on. In addition, there are two categories of * * * general examination: liberal arts and science. Students can choose liberal arts or science according to their interests and professional direction.

The advantage of Japan's college entrance examination system is fairness and justice, which can ensure that all students compete under the same conditions. However, there are some problems in this system, such as too much emphasis on scores and rankings, which leads students to pursue high scores too much and ignore the cultivation of practical ability. In addition, because of the difficulty of passing the exam, many students are under great pressure and even have psychological problems. Therefore, in recent years, the Japanese government has reformed the college entrance examination system to a certain extent, trying to reduce the burden on students and improve the quality of education.
