JETRO BJT 2007 - FudoMyo - 2007-06-11
Just took Jetro's Business Japanese Test yesterday. Man, that test is much harder than the JLPT 1級, that's for sure.
Anyone else take it? Wha'd you think?
I thought the listening was easier than the practice tests, but they just give you no time for the reading. It's a rush job and mostly guesswork. You really need to just KNOW really well, no time for thinking.

I've been thinking of taking that test. Was there a lot of business用語 on it or did it mostly test general language ability?

No, no, business 用語. In fact, I'd say if you've never worked in a Japanese company before, you're gonna find it really tough. The only one in our group who is doing really well has worked in a Japanese company for 7 years. It's vocab she's seen everday, but I've never used it in my life -- even in English! You can buy the practice books from Jetro for like 1200 yen. Take a look. Nasty.
