Examining the Effect of Some Parameters Applied in Entrance Exams to Sport High Schools on Achievement

Abstract

Aim: This study aims to examine certain parameters considered during the admission exams for sports high schools in relation to students’ success or failure in gaining admission. Method: The study was conducted with 420 candidates (251 males, 169 females) who participated in the 2023-2024 academic year talent exam for Van Sports High School. Among them, 90 candidates (57 males, 42 females) were admitted, while 330 candidates (197 males, 133 females) were not. The candidates’ performance in the talent exam was evaluated based on their scores in a coordination course, 30-meter sprint, standing long jump, rhythm tests, and secondary school grade point averages (SGPAs). The data obtained were analyzed, and the results were considered statistically significant at the p<0.05 level. Results: The analysis for coordination performance (Admitted = 36.20; Not Admitted = 35.53) revealed no significant difference between the groups (p>0.05). Similarly, no significant difference was observed in sprint performance (Admitted = 10.27; Not Admitted = 9.93) (p>0.05). Although the standing long jump performance (Admitted = 5.91; Not Admitted = 5.54) showed a borderline difference, it was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: Among the parameters evaluated during admission to sports high schools, sports background and secondary school grade point averages stand out as the most significant in determining the success of candidates. It can be concluded that sports experience and SGPAs have a direct impact on success in gaining admission to sports high schools.
