Abstract
This issue and the next deal with aspects of the examination system in China, in particular the gaokao (college and university entrance examination) and huikao (upper middle school general graduation examinations). The aim is to provide background information regarding policies, recent reforms, opinions, suggestions, and criticisms. While most attention is focused on the changes in the period since 1988, brief references are also made to reforms since 1949 and even earlier periods, including the keju (imperial examination system). Aside from such contextual references, occasional comparisons are also made with American and other Western examination systems.
