Service Overview This program systematizes Gakyukan's knowledge, accumulated over 30 years and through supporting the career development of over 11,000 students, for high school students. In recent years, comprehensive selection (formerly AO admissions), which evaluates individuals through statements of purpose, essays, and interviews in addition to academic tests, has expanded in university entrance examinations. In this context, what is required is not just exam preparation, but the ability to articulate "who I am" and "what kind of future I want to envision." Based on the "self-analysis for self-discovery" method cultivated since its founding, Gakyukan provides consistent support for high school students, from forming their aspirations to preparing statements of purpose, essays, and interviews. ▶Official Website https://www.gakyukan.net/ao Gakyukan High School Division HP screen ■ Program Features 1.

With the expansion of comprehensive selection, high school students are now required to undertake: ・Essential self-analysis ・Verbalization of aspirations ・Clarification of future vision In response to these changes, and recognizing the necessity of earlier career education, this program was developed. ■ Comment from Takako Sugimura, Director of Gakyukan What is asked in comprehensive selection is not technique, but the ability to articulate "who I am and what I want to achieve." This is the very question Gakyukan has valued since its founding. We believe that by having the experience of "looking inward and pursuing oneself" from the high school stage, life choices become more proactive. ■ Comment from Hayato Yoshida, Vice Director of Gakyukan The essence of comprehensive selection and job hunting is very similar. Both ask the question, "Who am I?" Until now, we have mainly supported university students, but by accompanying students from an earlier stage, we believe we can broaden each individual's potential more deeply, which led to the launch of this program. ■ Company Overview Company Name: Japan Business Lab Co., Ltd.
