Hey guys. I’ll be talking about my experience of studying for the entry exam for Hiroo. I joined Hiroo this year and it was my first Juken experience. At first glance it seemed simple, just study hard enough and pass, but once I actually started getting engaged in the process… well things didn’t go as expected. For a person like me who hates studying especially something boring like english essays, it was literal torture. However, as everyone says, never give up, and I continued studying. One part I could say I was different from other examinees (idk for sure but ig?) was that I actually played a lot. I know most people relate Juken study to like studying through the night or anything extreme like that, but I personally felt that playing was important too. I basically studied for an hour a day at max, and constantly went out to play with my friends or play games. I passed the exam on my first try and this lead to my current life.

Finally one advice from me: don’t take your exam studies priority, of course it is important but live your life fun equally. Stuff you study in Juken is important to pass it, but in the end is garbage knowledge in life. I’m not telling you to not study, I’m telling you to just enjoy your life as well. (-Ryohya)
