Written Exam
Students from Class 1-B take the written exam for three days in their homeroom class. Everyone manages to pass this portion of the test.

Practical Exam
Nezu and the U.A. faculty reveal that the practical test with include mock battles between students and teachers. Students form teams of two and they must work together to fight the teacher, who is posing as a villain. All matchups are assigned ahead of time and teachers are handicapped with weights. Students have thirty minutes to capture the villain or successfully escape from the battle in order to pass.

The students are matched up with their partners against teachers with advantages. Each student must learn to confront their weaknesses in order to pass, and the teacher's job is to exploit that. The students are told that the teachers aren't holding back, but in reality, they are all meant to leave an opening for the students to win. Despite being on teams, each student will be evaluated individually.
