About the Kagawa Entrance Mathematics Exam
The Kagawa Public High School Entrance Examination mathematics paper is created by the Kagawa Prefectural Board of Education. The single 50-minute, 50-point paper, sat on March 9, 2027 (Day 1 of the Reiwa 9 general-selection academic test, at 10:30), is a written exam on the 2017 MEXT junior-high Course of Study, covering numbers and expressions, equations and inequalities, linear and quadratic functions, plane and solid geometry, and probability, with worked steps required on a printed answer sheet. Admission combines the 250-point academic test with the 220-point report card on a five-band correlation table, plus an interview. This page provides 100 original English-language practice questions with detailed explanations as a study adaptation — not an official translation or a simulation of the official format.
Assessment
The real Kagawa mathematics examination is a 50-minute paper scored out of 50 points (250 total across five subjects); in the Reiwa 9 (2027) general selection all five subject papers are sat on a single Day 1, March 9, 2027 (mathematics at 10:30), with Day 2 (March 10, 2027) reserved for the aptitude test (tekisei kensa) and interview (mensetsu), a makeup (tsuiken) on March 13–14, 2027, and general-selection results announced on March 18, 2027 (Thursday). The paper is created by the Kagawa Prefectural Board of Education on the 2017 (Heisei 29) MEXT junior-high Course of Study, covering numbers and expressions, equations and inequalities, linear and quadratic functions, plane geometry (congruence, similarity, circles, the Pythagorean theorem, compass-and-straightedge construction), solid geometry, and probability, with answers shown as worked steps and short constructed responses on a printed answer sheet; about 30% of points is a small-problem set (shōmon shūgō) of basic calculations, and two descriptive geometry-proof questions typically appear. Admission (general selection, ippan senbatsu) combines the 250-point academic test with the 220-point report card (chōsasho): the two are, in principle, treated equally, each divided into five bands and combined on a correlation table (sōkan hyō) to judge pass/fail, with an interview for all applicants and an aptitude test for art/music departments. The chōsasho rating totals 220 points (grade 1: 45, grade 2: 45, grade 3: 130 — the five academic subjects weighted ×2 and the four practical subjects weighted ×4 in grade 3, based on records as of 2026-01-15). This local bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation providing 100 original practice items.

Kagawa Entrance Mathematics Study Tips from Top Performers
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the real Kagawa mathematics entrance paper multiple-choice?
Not entirely. Kagawa's mathematics paper mixes lettered-choice items with short constructed-response items that require worked steps, organized into several major questions covering a small-problem calculation set, equations, functions, geometry, and probability; about 30% of points is a small-problem set, and two descriptive geometry-proof questions typically appear. This bank is an English-language four-option MCQ study adaptation, not official past problems or a reproduction of the official layout: real selection items are not limited to four options, and every stem is in Japanese.
Are these questions official past exam problems?
No. Although the Kagawa Prefectural Board of Education publishes the actual examination problems after each sitting, it does not publish them as a multiple-choice set. This bank is an original English-language MCQ study adaptation aligned to the 2017 MEXT junior-high Course of Study, covering equations, functions, geometry, and probability with worked-solution reasoning.
How long is the mathematics paper and what is the maximum score?
The mathematics paper is a single 50-minute exam scored out of 50 points, sat on March 9, 2027 (Day 1 of the Reiwa 9 general-selection academic test, at 10:30, alongside the other four subjects). The five subjects total 250 points and are combined with the 220-point report card on a five-band correlation table in selection, plus an interview for all applicants.
How is the report card (chōsasho) score calculated in Kagawa?
Kagawa uses all three junior-high years and all nine subjects on a 5-point rating scale. Grade 1 and grade 2 each total 45 points (9 subjects × 5). Grade 3 totals 130 points: the five academic subjects are weighted ×2 (5 × 5 × 2 = 50) and the four practical subjects (music, art, health-and-physical-education, technology-and-home-economics) are weighted ×4 (4 × 5 × 4 = 80). The grand total is 220 points, based on records as of 2026-01-15. Because grade 3 carries the most weight, third-year ratings matter most.
How are the academic test and report card combined in Kagawa's general selection?
In principle the 250-point academic test and the 220-point report card are treated equally: each is divided into five bands and the two are combined on a correlation table (sōkan hyō) to judge pass/fail, with an interview for all applicants and, for art and music departments, an aptitude test (tekisei kensa). Other record contents are also considered comprehensively.
Does this bank include real calculation questions?
Yes. About a third of the 100 items are genuine worked-calculation questions with numeric answers — solving simultaneous and quadratic equations, evaluating functions at a point, applying the Pythagorean theorem and similarity ratios, computing volumes, and counting probability outcomes — not just definitional recall.
What is the Reiwa 9 (2027) examination and results schedule?
For the Reiwa 9 (2027 entrance) cycle, the general-selection application window is February 12–15, 2027 with preference change February 17–19, 2027. The academic examination is held March 9–10, 2027 (all five academic subjects on Day 1, March 9; the aptitude test and interview on Day 2, March 10), with a makeup March 13–14, 2027, and general-selection results announced March 18, 2027 (Thursday). The JPY 2,200 fee is set out on the official Kagawa tuition-and-fees page.
What parts of the junior-high mathematics curriculum does the exam cover?
The paper covers the 2017 MEXT junior-high mathematics curriculum: numbers and expressions, equations and inequalities, linear and quadratic functions, plane geometry (congruence, similarity, circles, the Pythagorean theorem, compass-and-straightedge construction), solid geometry, and probability. This bank distributes its 100 items across those areas.
