If you have satisfactorily completed the course work (i.e., the final exam, assignments, quizzes, and an attendance rate of 80% or higher in any course), you can ask your instructor to write a PROGRESS REPORT for you at the time of the final exam. Your language skills in grammar, writing, reading, aural/listening, oral/speaking, communicative competence, and attendance, punctuality, performance (in class), homework, attention, effort, motivation, and progress will be graded on a 7-point scale and kept in your PROGRESS REPORT. Soko Gakuen will keep your records, and will release them upon your request.
Upon successful completion (80% or higher attendance rate and 80% or higher final exam score) of any course, a CERTIFICATE OF COURSE COMPLETION will be obtained, if requested.
Soko Gakuen's final exams will be a combination of achievement and proficiency (i.e., you may encounter test items that have never been taught in the class). Soko Gakuen's exit criteria for each level are based on the 1987 ACTFL Japanese Language Proficiency Guidelines.
POLICY ON THE FINAL EXAM
If the student is unable to take the final exam on the scheduled date
due to circumstances beyond his or her control, the exam will be given
only in a similar test-taking situation (under supervision of an
instructor
at Soko Gakuen). Unless the final exam is made up, NO CERTIFICATES can
be issued.
PROFICIENCY or PLACEMENT TESTS
To enroll in the PRACTICAL COMMUNICATION or READING FOR COMPREHENSION
class, you must pass (80% or hgher) the Proficiency Test
(PT300). The test
(approx.
1 hour) will be given on the first day of your class. Other
levels
of
Proficiency or PlacementTests (PT150, PT600, or online version, etc.)
may be administered upon your
request.
The Proficiency Tests, the scores of which are comparable to scores of
other institutions, can be an excellent device by which Soko Gakuen can
measure your Japanese language skills more objectively.

within a few weeks) to discuss your progress and performance at Soko
Gakuen.
Letters of recommendation can be obtained from your instructor upon
request.
