Ok, I just downloaded the 2006 past paper for level 4.
I want to ask some questions about the layout, so anyone who has done JLPT before please help.

First, I noticed that there are not enough boxes for given and surnames, even without a space. Do you just put last name in?
Second, do you circle the answers or underline them or what? I am a little confused, and the sheet does not tell you which to do.
And last, in the actual test what colour pen can you use, or do you have to use pencil or what? It doesn't say.

Thanks for your help,
Joe

It doesn't matter much how you write your name. Your name is already printed on the answer sheet, and that's what matters.

Answers are given by shading in oval-shaped bubbles on the answer sheet.

You should use a number 2 or HB pencil.

When you fill in the answer use an HB pencil and make sure you color in the little circle. ANY mistake marks must be full erased! The answers are checked by a computer. You are allowed to bring one of those white erasers without the paper around it.

I looked at the past paper again and it seems to me like there is no circles. Will there be circles where the numbers are?

Another thing, I found a way to bypass the points system for JLPT.info.

However, I don't know if I am allowed to post it so I wont for now...

I have moved the thread to Learning Japanese.

My apologies if this has caused any confusion to the OP.

Thanks for the rep points.

At the actual test you will be handed a sheet of paper with your name and several lines with question numbers and bubbles next to them like this.
1 (1) (2) (3) (4)
2 (1) (2) (3) (4)
3 (1) (2) (3) (4)
.
.
54 (1) (2) (3) (4)
55 (1) (2) (3) (4)

This is separate from the booklet that contains the questions.
