China and Turkey are countries with different cultural, historical, and social contexts. However, there are some similar points in these countries’ educational system. Each year, millions of secondary school students in these countries take the entrance exams, but limited number of them gains admission into the universities. This study aims to compare those countries’ university entrance exams and chemistry questions in these exams according to some criteria such as exam applications, content, and question types. The data of study was collected by documentary review and analyzed by descriptive analysis. At the end of the study, it was determined that there are some differences in some aspects of university entrance exams, and chemistry questions in China are extremely comprehensive, and required high level chemistry knowledge. In the light of these results, some recommendations were presented for educators in Turkey.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Çin ve Türkiye farklı kültürel, tarihsel ve sosyal şartlara sahip ülkelerdir. Bununla birlikte, bu ülkelerin eğitim sistemlerinde bazı benzer noktalar mevcuttur. Her yıl bu ülkelerde yaşayan milyonlarca ortaöğretim öğrencisi üniversiteye giriş sınavına katılmakta, fakat sadece sınırlı sayıda öğrenci üniversitelere girmeyi başarabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, iki ülkenin üniversite giriş sınavlarının ve bu sınavlarda sorulmuş olan kimya sorularının, sınav uygulamaları, içerik ve soru tipi gibi belli kriterlere göre karşılaştırılması amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışmanın verileri doküman incelemesi ile elde edilmiş olup, betimsel olarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonunda, iki ülkedeki üniversiteye giriş sınav sistemlerinin bazı yönlerinde farklılıklar olduğu, Çin de yapılan üniversite giriş sınavında yer alan kimya sorularının çok daha geniş kapsamlı ve daha üst düzey kimya bilgisi gerektirdiği belirlenmiştir. Bu sonuçlar ışığında, Türkiye’deki eğitimcilere bazı öneriler sunulmuştur.
