On January 13th-14th, high school students from all over Japan marched into test centers ready to tackle the National Center Test for University Admissions, a two-day standardized test that public and private universities factor into their review for admitting new students. In recent years, the examination has come under some scrutiny, with news and variety programs debating the quality and difficulty level of some questions. In order to get the highest score possible on the in-depth examination, many students spend grueling study sessions at prep schools compiling study notes. It turns out those notes really do make a difference, however, as one student who got a perfect score on the world history category of this year's exam found out.
Yusuke Suzuki (@yuusuke_suzuki), a prep school lecturer, recently shared photos of the study notes that the student used to prepare for eventually dominating the world history portion of the test. As he says, the meticulously annotated and cross referenced academic bible "releases a terrifying aura".

As shown in a response to Suzuki's Tweet, it's important to realize that despite it's appearance, this overwhelming compilation of notes isn't the student's own assortment of papers. This phonebook of academic training actually originated as the world history version of a standard National Center Test textbook (Ichimon Itto), which was completely transformed by the well-prepared student over the course of many a prep class. In it's current state, it's almost unrecognizable!
You can never be too prepared, especially for a test, and while this student walks a fine line, the perfect score speaks for itself!
