Triple acceptance to public universities.
She is interested in sociology and will study gender inequality in college.
After failing the university entrance exam, I learned about Kanda Institute of Languages' transfer system from the Internet. I was worried about what would happen if I chose to be a ronin and failed the exam again the following year, so I thought, "This is the only place for me! I decided to enroll in the school. My TOEIC? score, which was 495 when I entered the school, increased to 815 in July of my first year. I was surprised when I was able to naturally think in English and communicate in English, instead of thinking in Japanese and then rephrasing my opinions in English. After becoming interested in sociology, I gradually became clearer about what I wanted to study as I attended the Transfer Center. What helped me in the exam preparation classes were the lessons on expressing opinions about a single thing from various perspectives. I was gut-punched when I was asked to write a critical opinion on an issue in the actual exam. In addition, I was able to confidently answer the interviewer's questions, which were intimidating, because I kept digging deeper in my daily interview practice. As a result of my steady preparation, I was accepted at three public universities. In the end, she decided to study at Osaka Public University, where she had a professor who was knowledgeable about her field of study. At the university, I would like to deepen my understanding of the factors that cause gender inequality and research why the rate of Japanese men taking childcare leave is so low.

He spends his days researching the diversity of the English language at the university.
In the future, I dream of becoming a world-class pilot.
I failed the entrance examination for Kanda University of International Studies, which was my first choice, and entered Kanda Institute of Languages, which has a transfer student system. At ECL (see p. 107), where I could speak with international students from various countries, I realized that even the same English can be pronounced completely differently in different countries. Based on this experience, I decided to transfer to Aoyama Gakuin University, where many faculty members study the diversity and culture of English used around the world. There is less information on the transfer examination than on the general selection examination, and each university has a completely different way to prepare for it. There were times when I was worried, but the teachers at the Transfer Center supported me. They kindly provided me with advice on everything from study methods to study materials and test preparation, and I was able to pass the entrance exam in the shortest possible time. I passed the transfer exam without a hitch and was able to obtain a TOEIC? score of 950 by the time I graduated. I believe that there is no other school in the world that offers such a complete environment to support those who work hard to achieve their goals. After transferring to Aoyama Gakuin University, I even went to visit a friend in Indonesia whom I had connected with through SNS. I was deeply moved when he showed me around the area and we were able to communicate in the English I had learned. Currently, I spend my days researching English in Southeast Asia from the perspective of English phonetics and sociolinguistics. I am learning more about the diversity of English so that I can communicate with people from all over the world. In the future, she hopes to work for an airline company where she can train as a trainee pilot, which has been her dream since she was in elementary school. As there have been no graduates from our university who have become pilots, I dream of the day when I will be the first one and will be able to fly with all the faculty and staff who have supported me since I was a student.
