The Japan Association of National Universities requires "information" for university entrance examinations from 2024.Until now, the university admission test has been limited to 5 subjects and 7 subjects, but in principle it will be changed to 6 subjects and 8 subjects.In the individual entrance examination, advanced descriptive questions and comprehensive English proficiency evaluation will be introduced.
According to the Japan Association of National Universities, "Information I" will be compulsory in high school from 2022 based on the new course of study, and all new students who enter in the spring will learn programming in class. In the 1 entrance exam, this new first year student will be able to take the common test for university admission, so the national university that utilizes the common test for university admission for the primary exam will add "information" to the previous 2024 subjects and 1 subjects.
The National Center for University Entrance Examinations has already announced the implementation of "information" in the common test for university admissions, and attention has been focused on the response of national universities, but the Japan Association of National Universities officially decided to make it mandatory at a general meeting held online.Details such as points will be announced on the website during 2022.
In addition, in order to evaluate the examinee's judgment, logical thinking, and expressiveness in the individual entrance examination, we will issue advanced descriptive questions and take into consideration the fact that social and economic globalization is progressing at a rapid pace. The content is designed so that the overall ability of "reading," "writing," "listening," and "speaking" can be appropriately evaluated.
