Explanation and Etymology - (受験) jyuken

受験 is a Japanese word composed of two kanji: 受 (ju) which means "to receive" and 験 (ken) which means "test" or "exam". Together they form the term referring to the act of taking an exam or test, especially in an educational context. The word is often used in Japan to refer to the university or high school admissions process, which is highly competitive and stressful for many students. The etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when the Japanese educational system began to develop and examinations became an important part of the selection process for public office. Since then, the word has been used to refer to any type of exam or test, whether in an academic or professional context.
