@zcami ,since you're in Social Science,Japanese definitely helps..it's not necessary but if you can give it a shot,by all means do..and don't just stop at A,give B a look..you might find something you can answer..if not just take some guesses ^^
@mondamonmon , take pencils and an eraser..if you want take a pen or two as well just in case but they asked us to use pencils..and if you want take whatever else you may need during the whole time..maybe a bottle of water or some books to study during breaks ^^

Good luck you guys! ^^

Also,the formal clothes thing isn't necessary..something casual is fine,just be neat though :3

Well they do matter If you want to give a better impression in the interview. At least that's how I've been told by the embassy...

That was helpful, thanks! I'll make sure I do my best.
By the way, I've read that you already did the exams and the interview. Did they ask you to speak in English or Japanese at any moment? Just wondering :B

 

[mondamonmon]

So I should go in formal clothes and bring pencils.

What about a calculator or anything to use during the tests of the sort?

Hey guys!

I received the email inform me the detail of exams. I'll have the exam on 4 July which for arts students.

Just to confirm, are the English exam and math exam like 2012&2013? Which is not like the 2010 exam@@?

 

[Mikyo]

I have just taken the exam ^^

Not good as I expected, especially math was very bad >.<

The math exam contained many topics and I think it was more difficult than past years, and there were no logarithm, my favorite part I could do only about 40%. The result will be pronounced at the middle of July. All I can think now is hope.

If you're waiting for the exam, study many topics.

 

[Squishy]

Well,it's up to you..maybe it's different in your country but lots of people have gone casually dressed..either way is fine,as long as you're not sloppy ^^

My whole interview was in English and they askede to say something in Japanese ^^

Take one and ask if you can use it..it worked here even though everyone says they're not allowed..

Congrats yau!
English,pretty much..math,not really ^^'

40% isn't bad! You did your best and after all you're in Social Sciences so it should be weighed against you too much ^^

Good luck with your exams yau and good luck getting the interview Mikyo! Just believe in yourselves!

English is the same as 2012&2013. Math, there are still 3 parts, but I think it's as difficult as 2010. But don't worry too much. Just study many topics carefully, you can do it.

 

[Mikyo]

Thank you Squishy

Well, there are many people applying for this scholarship in my country (35 this year), so I'm still a little bit nervous.

Anyway, I have finished my exam and can relax now

 

[yau]

Thank you guys! I'll try my best on the exam :3

Mikyo I think your country has less applicants than my city.
Also, in our city, the embassy will choose 10 people to interview.
How about your country?

 

[Mikyo]

In my country the exams take place in 2 cities, and there are 27 in my city.

I don't know how many people they will choose. They didn't tell us.

 

[zcami]

Hey guys, it's kind of late to ask for this but, does anyone have the exams from 2011?
I've done all of the past exams but the ones from 2011. If any of you have them, would you mind sending it to me?
If you know where to get them, would you tell me, please? C:

Thank yoooou in advance!

 

[Nachodlf]

Mmm I might be dead without a periodic tablet for the chemistry test

[Squishy]

I don't think you'll be allowed a periodic table but I guess you may as well take it and ask if you can use it..

 

[Sai]

If someone has the 2011 past papers could you pleease send them to me?
Thank you ^_^

Hello everyone, I just joined this site. I am applying for MEXT undeergraduate 2015 Natural science A. If possible can anyone send me the past papers from 2011-2013/4. Please and thank you.

Also could you give me some advice on the interview and the entrance exams because looking through the entrance exam the questions seem pretty hard.
