Revision of Eiken test from Sat, 09/05/2015 - 10:51

There is an Eiken Test in Japan. It has 7 grades, and it is composed of three sections: writing, listening and an interview.

Many years ago, I took the test twice. First I took grade 3, second I took grade pre2. I passed both of them. A few months after the test, I thought I was going to take grade 2, and bought a workbook for the test. But it was too difficult for me to study, so I gave up.

In July of this year, my younger granddaughter tried the Eiken grade pre 2. She had studied very hard and passed. She is a third year middle school student, and she's good at taking tests. Next year, she has to take the high school entrance exam. The Eiken certification seems to be a great advantage for her.

I hope she can pass the all the exams she takes, and gets into the school where she wants to go!

Have a good day,
Yasuko
