Japanese education system



     The Japan education system was reformed base on German and French model. After the World War II, the Americans reformed education system in Japan for six years for study in high school, three years for junior and three years for senior and four years for university or two years for junior college. Over 90% of all students graduate from high school and over 40% of them graduate from university or junior college. A percentage of male students is higher than female students in university but in junior colleges the number of female student is higher. Japanese schools also starts in April ,and it has three terms and one moth for long summer break.  Japanese use entrance exams for choose study to a university, and it has a high competition between students. Most high schools and universities require writing entrances exams to get to the best university such as the national University of Tokyo and University of Kyoto.


In my opinion, I think Japanese student have high performance to study in Japan because in Japan, there education have a hight challenge in the national exam which use in enroll to university.  

Japanese Nurse Exam including Translation



 

A health ministry has set a change of Nursing exam for include English translations for foreigners. More than 1,000 foreigners have come to Japan such as Indonesia and Philippines. Although, the passage test rate is low because the kanji is hard to foreigner when they take the exam. For medical and nursing school, the translations will be translate Japanese disease names to English name. Moreover, it can change difficult Japanese words and rephrased the sentences that easy to read.

In conclusion, I think this translation will be important to study Japanese language in the further because this language has many form and it hard to remember all the Japanese letter.

 The Japan Football Association (JFA) give a permission to eight European team for release their footballer for friendlies against Paraguay and Guatemala national team.The JFA given permission for 8 team that has Japanese footballer such as CSKA Moscow, Grenoble, VfL Wolfsburg, Borussia Dortmund, Schalke 04, A.C. Cesena, Catania and Lierse Sk. Most of Japan player play in middle Europe. This match held on September 4 in Yokohama and on September 7 in Osaka.
They have the first match with Paraguay after the last match the found in second round of South Africa world cup and Paraguay won them by penalties shot. 
The JFA did not selected a new coach ,yet after their old coach stepped out because he was fail to made japan to be a champion of world cup.

In conclusion, I think Japan will have their player back for European. If the not have them back they will lose this two team because their have many skillful player and good coach.
