Fukuoka Entrance Science study plan

Fukuoka Entrance Science · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Physics: forces and motion, energy, electricity and magnetism, waves and sound, light

Distinguish and calculate net force, mass, and acceleration using Newton's three laws, including friction and gravity on inclines
Draw and interpret free-body diagrams for at least eight scenarios and label every force vector correctly
Solve uniform-acceleration kinematics problems (v = u + at, s = ut + ½at²) without reference notes
Define work, kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, and power, and apply conservation of energy to falling and sliding objects

A handwritten formula sheet plus 20 solved mechanics problems (mixed kinematics, forces, energy) with worked steps, self-scored at 80% or higher

Week 2

Apply Ohm's law and series/parallel resistance rules to compute current and voltage in multi-resistor circuits
Explain the magnetic field around a current-carrying wire and a solenoid, and state the right-hand rule
Describe electromagnetic induction and how a changing magnetic flux generates a current
Relate wave speed, frequency, and wavelength (v = fλ) and classify transverse versus longitudinal waves

A one-page circuit-and-magnetism summary with 10 solved circuit problems and 5 wave calculations, cross-checked against a textbook answer key

Week 3

Classify matter as element, compound, homogeneous mixture, or heterogeneous mixture for 15 given samples
Write and balance chemical equations, including combustion and neutralization, for 12 reactions
Count atoms and apply the conservation of mass to verify balanced equations
Distinguish physical changes from chemical changes and cite evidence for each classification

A 12-equation balancing worksheet fully balanced and annotated with atom counts on both sides, plus a matter-classification table of 15 samples

Week 4

Define acids and bases using pH, indicator color changes, and neutralization reactions
Predict products of simple acid-base and metal-acid reactions and write balanced equations
Explain atomic structure (protons, neutrons, electrons) and relate electron arrangement to the periodic table groups
Re-solve 10 missed physics problems from weeks 1-2 to confirm retention

A mid-plan mock test of 30 mixed physics and chemistry questions completed under timed conditions, with an error log listing every missed concept

Week 5

Label the organelles of plant and animal cells and state the function of each
Compare mitosis and meiosis in terms of chromosome number and purpose
Explain how DNA, genes, and chromosomes transmit traits, and solve simple monohybrid crosses using Punnett squares
Distinguish genotype from phenotype and predict ratios for dominant, recessive, and codominant alleles

A cell-diagram labeling sheet plus 10 solved genetics problems with Punnett squares and stated phenotype ratios

Week 6

Describe photosynthesis and respiration as complementary processes with their equations and locations
Trace energy flow and nutrient cycling (carbon, nitrogen) through a food web
Explain natural selection and give evidence for evolution from fossils, homologous structures, and adaptation
Predict how removing a producer or predator changes population sizes in a given ecosystem

A hand-drawn food web for a named ecosystem with arrows, trophic levels, and a written prediction of the effect of removing one species

Week 7

Identify Earth's internal layers and relate plate boundary types to earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain formation
Interpret a weather map: fronts, pressure systems, and the resulting weather
Distinguish weather from climate and list the main factors controlling climate
Order the planets by distance and size and describe key features of the solar system

An annotated diagram set: one Earth-structure/plate-tectonics cross-section, one weather-map interpretation, and one solar-system scale chart

Week 8

Describe the life cycle of stars and distinguish main-sequence stars, red giants, and white dwarfs
Explain the evidence for the Big Bang, including redshift and cosmic microwave background
Complete two full timed mock exams covering all four domains and score each
Review every item in the error log and re-teach the three weakest concepts from memory

Two completed timed mock exams with scores recorded and a final one-page condensed review sheet covering all four domains

Week 2: Can solve kinematics, force, energy, circuit, and wave problems at 80% accuracy without notes on a 20-question self-test

Week 4: Scores 70% or higher on the 30-question mixed physics-chemistry mock and has a written error log for every miss

Week 6: Can explain cell division, a monohybrid cross, and energy flow in a food web aloud in under five minutes each without notes
