AP Japanese Testing

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>Hey CCers, I have a couple of questions about the AP Japanese Exam.</p>

<p>First of all, I have been self-teaching myself Japanese for about 1 year now since classes are absent at my school. I'm an upcoming senior student and I know about 250 of the 410 AP Kanji.</p>

<p>I'm just wondering what you guys think about this, because I have had some thoughts about not taking it since most of the colleges and universities I'm applying to don't really take into account your score on a AP Japanese Exam.</p>

<p>Also, if anyone can post personal experiences, thoughts, or recommendations regarding the exam, that would be wonderful. :)</p>

<p>よろしくお願いします。</p>

<p>Wow, only about 1,000 people in the U.S. take that one. I think that counts for something, plus it’s a great resource to use in life. I vote yes, take the test.</p>

<p>Nice~ that’s what I’m doing as well (self-studying AP Japanese). Check out AJATT.com. It’s a really helpful blog for self-studying Japanese. :slight_smile: Ganbatte!</p>
