The University of Tokyo Entrance Examination Supervision Committee has decided to add English listening to the pass / fail judgment in the 2021 general entrance examination.In the current National Center Test for University Admissions, only the written grades are used, but it was judged that it could be used by analyzing the problems of the trial survey.
According to the University of Tokyo, in the common test for university admission, English scores will be 100 points for both reading and listening, but the University of Tokyo will convert them to 140 points for reading and 60 points for listening.The policy is to continue listening to English, which has been conducted in the second examination.
In English, which is a common test for university admission, reading to measure reading ability and listening to examine listening ability are given.The National Center Test for University Admissions has a score of 200 for writing, which is close to reading, and a score of 50 for listening, and the common test for university admission is characterized by increasing the weight of listening.Even though the University of Tokyo introduced listening to the National Center Test for University Admissions in 2006, it has not used it for pass / fail judgment because it is conducting its own listening in the secondary exam.
In addition, the University of Tokyo will set the subjects / subjects imposed by the Common Test for University Admissions to 5 subjects in 8 subjects or 6 subjects in 8 subjects and 5 subjects in 7 subjects in each science category, similar to the National Center Test for University Admissions.Due to the fact that the introduction of descriptive questions was postponed in the common test for university admission, the use is limited to mark-type questions.
