Abstract
In Korea, the college entrance examination has played a major role in shaping Korean mathematics education. All high school students who want to pursue a college degree are required to take a college entrance examination in which the mathematics portion makes up one-fourth of the total 400 points. As a result of this emphasis, the Korean college entrance system continues to be a major topic of debate. Here, Hong and Choi describe the objectives and characteristics of the mathematics portion of the Korean college entrance examination and also analyze in detail some items from the exam.
