Frequently Asked Questions
Is the real Miyazaki science paper a multiple-choice test?
No — the real paper is a written, constructed-response exam in Japanese that includes hand-written calculations, observations, and experiment/reason explanations. This 100-question bank is an original English-language MCQ study adaptation aligned to the 2017 MEXT junior-high Course of Study, not a reproduction or format simulation of the official paper.
Are these questions official past exam problems?
No. This bank is an original English-language MCQ study adaptation aligned to the 2017 MEXT junior-high Course of Study, covering physics, chemistry, biology, and earth science — not an official translation or format simulation.
How long is the science paper and what is the maximum score?
The science paper is a single 50-minute exam scored out of 100 points, sat as one of five academic-test subjects totaling 500 points on Day 1 of the 一般入学者選抜 (国語・理科・英語).
How are the academic test and report card combined in Miyazaki's 一般入学者選抜?
Miyazaki's 一般入学者選抜 uses the academic test (500 points) and the report card (調査書, 135-point base across 9 教科, 5段階, 中学1–3年). Each school chooses its own 学力:調査書 ratio. Some schools apply 傾斜配点 (up to 2 subjects, up to 1.5×). Selection is by rank order within each school's quota; there is no single prefecture-wide pass line.
How much is the Miyazaki entrance selection fee?
Yes. The official 実施要綱 sets the entrance selection fee at 2,200 yen for the full-time course (全日制) and 950 yen for the part-time course (定時制), paid in Miyazaki Prefecture revenue stamps (宮崎県収入証紙). It is not refunded if the application is withdrawn. This is a selection fee only and is separate from tuition.
Can MCQs simulate the experiment and reasoning sections of the real paper?
No. The real paper requires hand-written observations, calculations, and experiment/reason explanations. Four-option MCQs cannot reproduce those tasks. This bank instead offers physics, chemistry, biology, and earth-science items to help prepare.
