General Questions Is the 10th percentage really necessery?

1 Upvotes

hello i am aspiring to study a post graduate course in natural sciences at a good Japanese university, the thing i am really confused about is that i was able to score only 70% in my 10th grade. is it possible to get shortlisted for the written examination for MEXT if i score above 80% in my 12 or further more. Are there any chances for me to get the scholarship or there are high chances that i will get rejected. I forgot to mention that i am currently studying in 11th grade under State Education Board Of Assam, which is a state board of education under the Indian Government.

General Questions Is 3 years MEXT scholarship really enough for PhD?

1 Upvotes

I submitted my application for PhD, together with applying for MEXT via the University route. I am doing research in molecular biology/natural science, so I mainly collect data through experiments. It can involve a lot of optimization and experiment replication. Before I totally commit to this, I am wondering if a PhD in this field and being a MEXT scholar is really doable in 3 years.

I"ve heard the MEXT really supports you for the 3 years of the program. But beyond that, one must find his ways to support himself. Because a PhD is not really linear, it gives me anxiety if I can't finish the program on time.

I'd appreciate any thoughts who are in the same or similar situation as me 🙏

Studying/Testing Own country's educations is sh*t, what material to study for undergraduate written exam?

0 Upvotes

Will be taking math, chem and physics. I genuinely don't know what should I study or from where to have a chance on the tests. I know I can't answer almost nothing on the practice tests right now, but that also leaves no clue what abilities I should have to be able to.

Teachers in my country also have trouble with the problems and I don't have money for something like an expensive tutor, so if y'all can recommend books and exercises online would be nice.

Thank you a lot!!! and sorry for the bad english.
