Nice to meet you, my name is Scythe..
I'm a 17 years old chinese boy from some unknown poor countries that i don't like,
I've been looking forward to study abroad in Japan...
I will be going to Japan after completing my high school in my country.
I was trying to get some guide from the friends i get to know here..(If i could get one) though the possibility of getting one isn't so high.....
I will be grateful if any Japan residents can be my friends and give me some guidance !!

Hi, and welcome to the forum.

I'm also are from the same some unknown poor country you are from. Just wanted to give you my 2cent, coming here won't change anything.

Best route to get here is, to get into a Japanese Language School back in KL, where they will fix you up on how to get to Japan if you're interested in furthering your studies to Japan. Visa, passport, school in Japan and even accommodation, everything.

Like I said, start from KL.
I start from a language school in KL and they made my path to language school in Japan much much more easier. Because most of the school in Japan need you to have a guarantor that are residing in Japan. If you have that, go for it. If you don't try go in a language school in KL first like I said. And It doesn't matter which language school you go to, if you want to go to neec(Nihon Kogakuin). Because after you get here, everything will be much much more easier to go to any school. You can even go to the open campus to check out the school to see if you actually would want to go there. Oh, and the neec language school, you need a guarantor in Japan, I think. Not quite sure tho.

All should be okay, right ? or is there any requirement or condition ?
I was planning to take the robotic course...
I'm not part of the science stream but i had my add math subject with me...
i don't know is that all right for me to dream so far...
I was concerned by my SPM result...
Sorry if i ask to many question, it's just that i can't stop worrying about it...

Since the neec you wanted to go is not actually a university, so no, it shouldn't be that hard to enter. If you have the money, they'll pretty much accept you if your Japanese skill is ain't that horrible. Oh and they won't look at your SPM result.
The entrance exams will probably just be an essay on what is your dream or something like that, and after that a simple interview. So don't worry about it. Because by the end of it, you'll just go, eh? thats it??

Here's the easy flow. Start at KL Jpn Language school which will be your guarantor to enter the Japanese Language School in Japan. At this point, it doesn't matter where you go. When you're here, get the document from Neec, and go to the open campus. Pass either EJU or JPLT, and apply. Just be sure to have enough in your bank, then it should be ok.

Good luck.
I hope you'll find what you're looking for, because I didn't

Erm... thanks again, i get the point there~
The subject of those vocational schools require any specific knowledge?
As an example, Robotics course in japan vocational schools need some foundation of Physics, Add Math or others ?

Was just hoping you aren't going to JP for all the wrong reasons

For the entrance exam no, just Japanese Language. But you will definitely need physics and math to cope up with the study, since everything will be tougher because you're learning everything in Japanese. If you going through the route I went, they will actually put you in the University preparation course where you will able to also take courses in Physics and Math and/or Chemistry, in Japanese.

I'm not sure if you've already made your mind on the school or not. But IMHO, go for university. You'll have better student life, more free time on your hand for uni clubs and/or if you want to experience part-time work in Japan, you will have the time for that. Vocational school in Japan is exactly like high school back over there. Packed with classes, not much time for club activities and such.

I totally agree. Japanese language is a prerequisite.

To get a student visa you will have to prove you can pay all of the tuition for that school. Heads up, person from poor countries.
