Bring Out Your Best!

Japrise measures your ability to speak Japanese effectively in work settings. The 24 questions/tasks in 5 big sections resemble real-life situations you might encounter both in and outside of a workplace. You will hear an automated voice, after which you need to answer the question.

✓Speak as much as possible.

Providing no response will result in a score of zero. It is not necessary to use advanced vocabulary. Instead, utilize the words you know, make full use of the allotted response time, and express yourself as thoroughly as possible.

Example Question: 休(やす)みの日(ひ)に何(なに)をしますか。
Basic Response：映画(えいが)を見(み)ます。
Enhanced Response：映画(えいが)を見(み)ます。とくに映画館(えいがかん)でアクション映画(えいが)を
　　　　　　　　　　　見(み)るのが好(す)きです。大(おお)きなスクリーンで見(み)たいからです。

Example Question: What do you do on your days off?
Basic Response: I watch movies.
Enhanced Response: I watch movies, especially action movies at the cinema. I prefer the cinema
because I enjoy the big screen experience.

✓Key points to enhance your score

1.) Listen attentively to the questions and provide logical responses, including reasons,
     assumptions, and examples where appropriate.
2.) Incorporate a variety of vocabulary and try to ensure grammatical accuracy.
3.) Speak clearly and audibly, paying attention to pronunciation, intonation, and rhythm.


While the test utilizes recorded prompts,
please approach your responses as if engaging in a real conversation.

1. The audio prompts will be played only once.
2. Each question has a fixed response time. When the allocated time expires, the system will automatically advance to the next question.
3. It is not possible to return to previous questions once they have been completed.
4. Please ensure you take the test in a stable communication environment and speak clearly when providing your responses. Recordings that are inaudible will not be graded.
5. Conduct the “Environment Check Test” prior to the test to confirm that there are no technical issues.
6. In the event of a communication disruption during the test, it will be necessary to register for the test again. However, if the disruption is due to circumstances beyond the test taker's control, you may resume the test from the point where it was interrupted.
