Best Answer

Japanese schools are different from American schools in many ways. First off, they are more advanced for a given age. Students are pressured to be the best. In Japan students must pass entrance exams to get into high school and college.
Another thing that is different in Japan is that students go to school 6 days a week (Monday-Saturday). Japanese students take many different classes and have a wide variety of subjects. Students at lunchtime eat in their classrooms and serve each other. Students change their shoes as soon as they enter the building. They change into white tennis shoes that are classified as part of their uniform.
