According to the Eiken Foundation of Japan, the qualifications for exemption from the primary exam can be obtained from all Eiken exams: Eiken, Eiken S-CBT, Eiken CBT, and Eiken S-Interview.By applying when applying for the Eiken S-CBT, you will be exempt from the listening, reading, and writing exams. The expiration date of the primary exam exemption qualification is until the same test is taken the year after acquisition.If the application is made in time, you can challenge the second examination of the certification times that you have obtained the qualification for exemption from the first examination.

　Eiken S-CBT is held every Saturday in principle.All questions are displayed on the computer, and the answers are answered by clicking the mouse on the screen or recording to the headset worn.You can choose to enter the writing test using the keyboard or fill out the answer sheet.The difficulty level, scoring criteria, and question content are the same as those of the conventional Eiken.Whereas the conventional Eiken has a two-day test schedule, the Eiken S-CBT conducts all tests in one day.

　The Eiken Foundation of Japan has obtained the qualification for exemption from the primary exam, but it is calling on people who have an inconvenient schedule for the next conventional Eiken exam or who want to take and pass the exam as soon as possible.
