Japanese term

スポーツ推薦入試

Japanese to English Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy
I'm also wonder what is the most common we'd say "推薦入試" in English.
I thought I'd ask the proz/kudoz community for their opinion.

Thank you.

admission selection based on excellence in sports

How about "admission selection based on excellence in sports"?

If you are just looking for the translation of 推薦入試, I would go with "admission selection of recommended candidates".

agree arfbrown (X) : How about instead of excellence in sports, "athletic ability"? The phrase, "admission selection based on athletic ability" sounds a little more natural to me, but still conveys the fact that this way of getting in to a school isn't really an examination.

Thanks. Thanks for your suggestion as well.
agree Marc Brunet : yes for 'excellence' which does not cover just 'performance' but 'commitment', dedication', possibly 'leadership', at any rate 'character' and 'organisation' -- promising qualities essential to success in long term and challenging endeavours

entrance examination for selected candidates based on their sport performance

推薦入試=entrance examination for selected candidates
I added "based on their sport performance" since this is specific to スポーツ
Peer comment(s):

agree Gerald Blomgren : Can’t this just be translated simply as a “performance based sports assessment”? Passage of the assessment implies “entry”

Your suggestion does not mention "entrance exam". This exam is for admission to a college, most of the time. Thank you!
