Fukui Entrance English case studies

The Fukui Prefecture High School Entrance Examination in English (福井県立高等学校入学者選抜 英語) is the English component of the entrance selection used by Fukui's public high schools. It is taken by students finishing junior high school in Fukui who are applying to prefectural high schools, and by eligible applicants from outside the prefecture or from earlier cohorts. The test is built on the English taught in Japanese junior high schools, so it assumes roughly three years of study: basic everyday vocabulary, the core grammar patterns, and the four skills as practised in class. Tasks typically combine listening, short and longer reading passages, information retrieval from notices and tables, grammar and vocabulary in context, sentence ordering and dialogue completion, and a short guided writing task. The Fukui Entrance English case studies are 5 cases and about 2,185 words.
