J.TEST mocks — the practical Japanese test employers trust
The J.TEST (実用日本語検定) measures real, usable Japanese — workplace and daily-life language, not just exam theory. One test spans a grade band (F–G, D–E, or A–C) and your total score sets the grade, and unlike the JLPT it includes a 記述 short-writing task. Our mocks are AI-graded with native Japanese audio and the real total-score banding.
Start a J.TEST mock →The three grade bands
Beginner · CEFR A1–A2
Everyday survival Japanese. Roughly JLPT N5–N4 territory — greetings, routines, simple exchanges.
Intermediate · CEFR B1
Practical daily-life and workplace Japanese at natural speed. Around JLPT N3–N2.
Advanced · CEFR C1
High-level business and academic Japanese. A single test spans A–C; your total score sets the grade — roughly JLPT N2–N1.
What the J.TEST covers
Listening + reading/grammar + a short-writing task, graded on one total score.
聴解試験
Listening — practical dialogues, announcements and workplace situations in native Japanese audio.
読解試験
Reading, grammar, vocabulary and kanji — authentic real-world texts and usage.
記述(作文)
Short writing — a guided composition task. A production skill JLPT doesn't test.
Why sit the J.TEST?
- Tests practical, workplace Japanese — closer to what employers actually need day-to-day.
- Held frequently through the year, so you can certify on your schedule.
- One test covers a whole band; your total score places you — no need to pre-guess your level.
- Includes a 記述 writing task, giving you a production credential JLPT/NAT-TEST don't offer.
