Abstract In this study, we analyzed the trends of chemistry items in the Japanese college entrance exams (unification test and university test) in order to obtain basic data for improvement of chemistry items in Korea 's entrance examination. The research subjects used in this study include the unification test that corresponds to the Korean SAT in the last five years and the items that each university in Japan conducts itself. Among them, we have extracted the items corresponding to Chemistry I and Chemistry II in our country. The analysis of questions was divided into behavior and content domain, and content domain was subdivided into knowledge, inquiry, and attitude. In addition, comparative study of the entrance examination items of Japan and Korea was conducted. [1] H.K. Kim (2010).
