Sindbad International Co., Ltd., which operates "University Entrance Examination Specialist / Tutor Mega Study Online", has released a report looking back on the university entrance exams in 2019 and a forecast report on the university entrance exams in 2020.

 The education industry is expected to undergo major changes due to the major reform of university entrance examinations ahead of 2021. Even in the 2019 examination, if the university enrolls in a large amount exceeding the capacity, there is also the influence of the "stricter admission capacity management" that the government has decided not to issue the "ordinary expenses subsidy for private universities". , Each university reduces the number of successful applicants.

 Originally, students who could aim for the University of Tokyo, Waseda University, and Keio University classes took the exam mainly at the Meiji University, Aoyama Gakuin University, Rikkyo University, Chuo University, and Hosei University (MARCH) level, where they can definitely pass the exam to avoid wandering. As a result, all the examinees on the conventional line were wiped out.The aftermath of the difficulty of passing the exam was noticeable at any university in any deviation range, and it can be said that the exam was safety-oriented.On the other hand, the number of examinees has increased at universities that receive so-called "non-slip", which is lower than MARCH in terms of deviation value.

 Next year 2020 will be the last year of the center test.Since the center test tends to be a completely one-pattern test every year, it is not necessary to change it in the final year and it is expected that there will be no change. Continuing in 2019, each university will be affected by "stricter admission capacity management" and the number of successful applicants will be reduced.If the examinees are ronin in 2020, measures for the entrance examination reform in 2021 will be required, so the number of concurrent application examinations to ensure that they will be taken in 2020 as a "endless entrance examination" will increase, and the tendency toward active duty will increase even more in 2019. predict.

 In the 2021 University Entrance Examination Reform, the evaluation that has traditionally emphasized "knowledge and skills" in the selection of university entrance exams will be changed to a multifaceted and comprehensive evaluation.For example, even in private university entrance exams, volunteer experiences are being asked, and each university has set an admission policy and is seeking "students that suit them."National universities are also trying to get more individual students with more recommended entrance exams.It seems that it will be necessary to keep an eye on the new movements of university entrance exams and prepare early.

Reference: [PR TIMES] The 2020 Reiwa University entrance exam is "super-safety-oriented" and avoids ronin.
