Educational purpose

JNews is self-study material. We are not a school, we issue no certificates, and we have no formal ties to any educational institution.

Not affiliated with the JLPT organisers

The Japanese-Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) is administered by the Japan Foundation and Japan Educational Exchanges and Services. We are NOT affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by either organisation. "JLPT" and "N1"–"N5" are used here only to describe content difficulty.

Practice material on this site is written by us based on the publicly documented exam structure. It is not past-paper content and not leaked material.

No guarantee of exam results

Studying here does not guarantee you will pass. Outcomes depend on many factors outside our control.

On accuracy

We review our content, but errors can still occur — particularly around nuance, where interpretations legitimately differ. Where we conflict with an authoritative textbook, trust the textbook. And please tell us at contact@jnews.jp.

On advertising

This site displays third-party advertising. We do not control ad content and do not endorse the products or services advertised. An ad appearing here is not a recommendation.

The other four lock once you choose. You can switch later, but the old level’s progress is erased.
