Research Abstract |
In order to investigate the effect of entrance examinations, scholastic achievements of students are compared for various groups with different entrance examination systems. The follow-up investigations are carried out in 25 national universities and 1 local public university, and their results are collected together. The main groups compared have the following examination systems : A : The "early" and "late" groups in the separated selection system. B : Various special selection systems. C : Supplementary selection system. D : Miscellaneous. E : Difference due to the subjects taken at the entrance examination. The comparison is made over several years for the students in the same classes. The numbers of groups compared are about 150 for A, about 220 for B, and 5-15 for others. The comparison for A is most interesting, because the systematic comparison of this has never been made before. The results, however, are not definite depending on universities and faculties and on academic years. In some cases, students of the "later" groups show better achievement than the "earlier" but in other cases the "earlier"s are better. Main reasons of this are as follows : (1) The separated selection system started only a few years ago, and the system is not stable yet. (2) The student groups compared are mainly in the 1st and 2nd year of universities, and only the data of the courses in the general education are available. Thus, in order to see the effect of the separated selection system more clearly, we must continue the similar investigation for several years more. In B, the special selection system is proved to be working well. Almost all data show that the entrants by this system are better than others in academic achievement. In other topics, C,D,E, we obtain rather interested results. The numbers of data however, are small, and the detailed results are omitted here.
