意味

Essay question; written-response question. A test question requiring a written answer rather than multiple choice.

A compound noun used in educational and examination contexts. Contrasts with 選択問題 (sentaku mondai, multiple-choice question) and マークシート問題 (mark-sheet question). 記述 means 'description/writing' and 問題 means 'question/problem.' Common in university entrance exams, certification tests, and academic assessments. Often considered more challenging because it requires organizing and expressing one's own thoughts.

例文

3. 選択問題より記述問題の方が配点が高い。
