Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I investigated the system and implementation contents of the entrance examination for the College Preparatory School of the College of Agriculture of Tohoku Imperial University. I summarized the applicant qualification, examination schedule, subject, place, number of applicants, passing standard points. According to a survey of high school directors' meetings, It was confirmed that a resolution was made regarding the examination schedule of university preparatory courses, as well as various matters such as the schedule, subjects, passing criteria related to the high school selection test. At the same time, I investigated the recollections and autobiographies of the graduates of the preparatory course, collected the descriptions related to the motives for the aspirations and the life of the examinees, and analyzed the process of deciding the course on the applicant side.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
旧制高等学校の入学者選抜試験に関する研究は膨大にあるが、類似した教育階梯にある大学予科に関するものはほとんどみられない。東北帝国大学農科大学大学予科(1907年~1918年)の入学者選抜試験の制度と実施内容をとりまとめたことにより、その一端を明らかにした。また、高等学校長会議への参加状況と決議事項の調査を通して、東北帝国大学農科大学大学予科の入学者選抜試験について、高等学校と関わらせて論じる妥当性を得た。本研究により、従来は高等学校を対象としてきた高等教育機関への入学者選抜試験制度史の研究を、大学予科を含めて拡張し展開するものと考える。
