Gifu Entrance English · Put your knowledge to work in context.

The Gifu Prefecture High School Entrance Examination - English is the English component of the entrance selection used by public high schools in Gifu Prefecture, Japan. It is taken by students finishing compulsory education who wish to enter a prefectural public high school, and it is administered by the Gifu Prefectural Board of Education. The test is built to check whether a candidate can use English, not merely recall it: it mixes listening tasks, reading of short passages and dialogues, grammar and vocabulary in context, sentence reordering and completion, guided English composition, and practical information-transfer tasks such as reading notices, schedules, or charts and responding in writing. Because the paper rewards steady, broad competence rather than last-minute cramming, preparation works best as a long runway. The Gifu Entrance English case studies are 5 cases and about 3,783 words.
