I found this link to a Japanese test (100 multiple choice
questions, unfortunately uses PDF files)

http://www.tbs.co.jp/nihongo05/

It claims the ludicrously low national average of 52 points
out of 100 and shows ' 東大 ' as 71 points. (Incidentally
exactly the score I got).

Given that my megalomaniac delusions are not that far
advanced I can only assume they are using some odd
marking scheme instead of "one point per question right".

Maybe -1 for each wrong answer? But if so, surely they'd have said.

Of course 10 questions on gairaigo helps for us english-speakers (so
long as we can work out what it will be mangled into in katakana).
Despite that, I still managed marginally less than a lucky monkey would
have got (ie about the same as a high school student). Luckly that JLPT
test is some way off :-)
