Editorial distinction: Official documents establish named examinations, curriculum frameworks and assessment formats. Scholarly sources establish the philosophical arguments. Inclusion here does not mean an examination board prescribes each thinker or that a particular question will appear. All practice is original, never reproduced from past papers.

  1. 01
    Буддын сургаал ба оюуны өв

    Buddhist thought and intellectual heritage

    Занабазар урлаг, шашны сургалтаар алдартай. Мэргэн гэгээн монгол хэлний хэрэглээг шашны зохиолд хөгжүүлжээ. Энэ хоёрын намтар нэг хүнийх биш.

    Zanabazar is known for Buddhist practice and art; Mergen Gegen contributed to Mongolian-language Buddhist expression. They are different thinkers in different settings.

How these questions were written

All eighty priority-region questions are original, written as new editorial source passages, contextual problems and combinations rather than transcribed examination items. Original-language writing and parallel English glosses are provided. Each question refers to a doctrine explicitly taught in the reading path, and every choice receives its own explanation. The Japanese and Korean sets model multi-step reading and comparison; the mainland and Taiwan sets model material and passage analysis. Format and curriculum evidence from examining bodies is kept separate from philosophical scholarship; doctrinal coverage is curriculum-connected enrichment unless a prescribed text is confirmed. The sixteen supplementary questions for the other four regions remain clearly differentiated; North Korea is critical reading, not a verified entrance-paper simulation. These materials are independently authored, unaffiliated with examination authorities, and do not cover complete syllabi.

Evidence register: Links alongside every lesson distinguish official examination documents from historical and philosophical scholarship. Wrong answers are explained rather than merely flagged. Examination formats and prescribed readings can change; consult the linked authority before an actual assessment. This independent journal is not endorsed by any examination board.
