20? You'll need to know more than 2,000 minimum. About 5,000 just to read a typical magazine or newspaper article.

You don't need to learn 5,000. Most Japanese adults know fewer than 3,000. With 2 or 3 years to prepare, you should try to learn the kyoiku kanji which number about 1,000. Learn two a day, five days a week, review all 10 on Saturday, review a random 100 on Sunday. You'll have 1,000 down well in two years.

Japanese kids learn about 2,000 kanjis between age 6 and 15. Only 20 does not make any difference. We learn the below 80 in the 1st grade. You have to stant with those 80. http://www.kanjijiten.net/joyo/g01.html

You must finish to learn more than 2000 Kanji before entering HS in Japan. It is must thing to do if you go to standard HS. Otherwise, you have to go sort of handicapped children 's school, not HS. Foreigners can't go to HS in Japan unless chosen by exchange international schooling program or having certain family visa status there.

i think u'll need to know a lot more than 20 for high school. or perhaps you want to go to an international high school? they are english -based i think..but you can still learn japanese in the school. I've been learning japanese for years...and for the japanese course at my school...(sydney HSC japanese continuers) we have to learn at least 84 kanji this year...and have many more that are assumed knowledge...and our japanese standard will not be enough to go to high school in japan. but i wish you the best of luck and that you will enjoy the experience. oh and to enter a japanese high school....are you going on exchange? because i don't think u can just enter a high school, living in japan needs many issues sorted out..(i'm not sure how visas and such work)
