Tottori Prefectural Public High School Entrance Examination - English · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.

Tottori Prefectural Public High School Entrance Examination - English is the English paper in the achievement test used for admission to Tottori's prefectural public high schools. It is set and administered by the Tottori Prefectural Board of Education, and it is taken mainly by students completing junior high school in the prefecture, along with other applicants who meet that year's eligibility rules. The English score is one input into selection: it is combined with the school record and, depending on the school and the selection round, other material, so it is not a stand-alone pass/fail barrier. The paper samples the English taught in Japanese junior high schools, but broadly: listening to short dialogues and announcements, reading passages of several paragraphs, discrete grammar and vocabulary items, situational responses, and a short composition written to given conditions. The Tottori Prefectural Public High School Entrance Examination - English study guide has 5 sections and about 1,568 words.
