Usage

For public high school admissions, the 内申点(ないしんてん), calculated from the five-point grades in each subject on the junior high school record (内申書(ないしんしょ)), is combined with the entrance-exam score. How much it counts, and which school years are included, differs by prefecture. The grades reflect tests, submitted work, and classroom attitude, so students are often told that 授業態度(じゅぎょうたいど) affects them.
