Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the university entrance exam questions and the performance of candidates in answering them based on Bloom's cognitive levels. The research is applied and analytical-descriptive. The statistical population was the candidates for the entrance exam from the years 2016 to 2018. Based on the Krejcie-Morgan table, 384 people were selected from Tehran. The data collection tool was the test report of the incoming candidates from 2016 to 2018. After collecting data, their analysis was based on Kappa Cohen and descriptive statistics. First, by analyzing the content of the test questions, their level was determined based on Bloom's cognitive domain levels, then, the performance of the candidates in the questions of each level was analyzed. For this purpose, the tests of 2016 to 2018 were used. The findings showed that the questions were above 40% in the level of comprehension and the performance of the volunteers in each of the levels was unsatisfactory (less than 50%). It was concluded from the findings that the majority of questions were low. It is suggested that the questions be formulated at the highest levels of Bloom's cognitive domain so that the student can be selected in various fields, including the fields of Farhangian University.
