What do you think about college entrance exams in Japan?

The current exam system gives students opportunities to study a variety of subjects like Japanese, math, sciense, history and so on.
You know, Japan is one of the societies which sets a greater value on the academic carrer. And Japanese are tend to be too serious, like, "If I fail, my life will be over...!" However, people who play active parts in business are not always from famous colleges. The most important thing is their personalities, positiveness, and so on. So more colleges should adopt recommend systems for students, like who actively do volunteer works, get qualification and so on.

1. Misspelled word - science
2. Use a comma to separate items in a series.
3. Misspelled word - career
4. Replace the conjunction "and" with the adverb "also". The sentence is grammatically correct but in formal writing, using conjunctions at the beginning of a sentence is not encouraged.
5. 7. Use a definite article before a specific noun.
6. Remove the auxiliary verb before the main verb.
8. Use the adjective form of the word.
9. Add the pronoun "those" to act as the subject of the clause.
10. Use the singular form of the uncountable noun. Add a quantifier to make the noun plural (for example, a lot of work).
11. Use the plural form of the noun.
Do you agree with the process of the college entrance exam in your country? Do you think it is reasonable?

I think it's easy to understand because more harder you study, the more high-level colleges you can enter.
However, I wanted to enjoy high school life more. Our high school was so strict that we couldn't be active. Just from I entered a high school, our teacher said that we have to decide where you want to enter and study harder and harder.

1. Use a definite article before a specific noun.
2. The adjective "harder" is the comparative form of hard. Therefore, it does not require an irregular adjective to form its comparative.
3. Use the adverb "as"
4. Remove the article before the noun "high school"
5. Use the pronoun "we"
What are the benefits of graduating from a high-level college? Can it ensure a successful career in the future?

I think that there are two big benefits.
 First, there are a lot of teachers whose knowledges are so deep and wide that you can deepen what you want to study.
 Second, the more harder you study, the more friends who live actively you can have.

However, it can't always ensure a successful carreer.
When it comes to job-hunting, popular companies tend to adopt people who take part in a various activities, like clubs, volunteer works, internships, and so on. So it can be said that what's important is what you do, not where you enter.

I highly go along with you on those statements. It is the connection that you can build when you are a college graduate. How accessible are college entrance exams in your country, by the way?

There are two types of entrance exams, except for recommended exams for candidates.
One is Common Test for University, nd the other is individual test.
If you want to enter a national universiity, you must take both exams. First you take the former test. However, if your score is low and doesn't meet the criteria, you'll lost the right to take the later exams. So the burdens to students who want to enter a national university are too heavy.

Oh, that is too stressful for me. Now, I can clearly understand why entrance examinations are being feared of. Do you think that process is necessary? How many days does the exam last, anyway?

If I was s student now, I would say it's definetely unneccesary.
However, the process of studing hard and overcoming any temptation like TV, games and so on is necessary and precious experience.

The former test takes two days, and the later one takes a day. Ordinally, those exams is held from January to March. So students often obstructed because of heavy snowing and trains being delayed.
