About the Aomori Entrance Science Exam
The Aomori Public High School Entrance Examination science paper is one of the five subject papers in the prefecture-wide academic examination administered by the Aomori Prefectural Board of Education for admission to prefectural public high schools. Aomori holds a single sitting in early March (March 5 in 2026) in which every applicant, under both the general (ippan) and specialty-focused (tokushoku-ka) selections, takes the same five-subject academic examination: Japanese and English in 50 minutes each, mathematics, science, and social studies in 45 minutes each, every subject scored out of 100 points. The science paper follows the MEXT Course of Study for junior high school across four fields — physics (forces, energy, electricity), chemistry (substances, solutions, reactions, ions), biology (cells, photosynthesis, human body, heredity, ecosystems), and earth science (weather, earthquakes, strata, astronomy) — with heavy use of experiment and data interpretation. Results are combined with the junior-high school report (chousasho, 135 points counted equally across all three school years) and an interview; there is no single passing score. This page provides 100 original English-language practice items as a study adaptation — original items, not official past problems.
Assessment
The real Aomori science subject is one of the five academic subjects (kokugo, shakai, suugaku, rika, eigo) of the prefecture-wide entrance examination administered in a single sitting in early March (the R8 / 2026 sitting was held on March 5, 2026). Every applicant takes the same five-subject examination under both the general (ippan) and the specialty-focused (tokushoku-ka) selections. The science paper lasts 45 minutes and is scored out of 100 points, covering the four MEXT junior-high fields — physics, chemistry, biology, and earth science — with an emphasis on interpreting experiments and data. This local bank is an English-language study adaptation aligned to the same curriculum content; the items are original and are not official past problems, and the MCQ format does not reproduce the official written-explanation work.
Time Limit
45 minutes for the science subject paper (per the official R8 / 2026 selection results report)
Passing Score
No fixed pass mark; each subject paper is scored out of 100 points and admission combines the academic test total (500 points) with the junior-high school report (chousasho, 135 points counted equally across all three years) and an interview, with school-specific weighting under the tokushoku-ka selection
Exam Fee
JPY 2,200 entrance selection fee for the full-time course; JPY 950 for the part-time course (Aomori Prefectural High School Tuition and Fees Collection Ordinance) (Aomori Prefectural Board of Education)
