The interest in Physical Education and Sports Departments in Turkey is increasing every
year and the number of faculties and colleges providing education in this field is
increasing day by day. Special aptitude exams are held for student recruitment and the
physical abilities of the candidates are tested in these exams. In Sivas Cumhuriyet
University, the School of Physical Education and Sports was transformed into the Faculty
of Sports Sciences. There are Physical Education and Sports Teaching, Coaching
Education, and Sports Management departments within the faculty. Student admission
is done by special aptitude exam every year. In recent years, there has not been a unity in
the examinations of Physical Education and Sports Schools throughout Turkey, so there
is a need for a scientific evaluation of the examination systems. In this study, the accuracy
of different exam systems in our country is investigated and the effect of exam parameters
on passing the exam is examined.
