• A commonly held belief about university entrance examinations in Japan is that they must perform dual functions : provide the basis for selection from among relatively qualified candidates to each department, and provide revenue for the university. The first of these beliefs, when put into practice, appears to be subject to pervasive misperceptions about what constitutes appropriate and sufficient assessment methodology. The main intention of this commentary is, therefore, to introduce a methodology for language assessment grounded in conventional psychological testing theory (Suen, 1990). A second aim is to suggest that use of econometric assumptions, as they are applied to entrance examinations, can lead at least to serious ethical questions, and in the worst case scenario, to potential litigation against a university.
