| Research Abstract |
1) We researched into the applicant-selection system of the pre-war Tokyo secondary schools and disclosed how the significance of entrance examination had been examined. By considering the roles of the study books for entrance examination playd in the primary education, we investigated some aspects of the academic abilities defined by the entrance examination.
2) We found out that the system of the entrance examinations for imperial universities was unified in 1922 through some trials and errors from about 1900.
3) We found out that the permission of women to enter the University of Tokyo around 1880 was not given and that the faculty of law science of Tokyo Imperial University accepted in 1934 a foreign female student from China to the graduate school as a regular graduate student, and after that, some Japanese women entered The graduate school the Tokyo Imperial University as such.
4) We introduced the experience of a Japanese who was born in colonial Taiwan and succeeded in entering the Taihoku Imperial University. Our inerview with him showed that the system of the entrance examination before the end of World War II had expanded into the Japanese colonies.
