Abstract

This paper presents an empirical investigation of the recent evolution of mathematics scores of Economics, Management, Political Science, International Relations, and Psychology bachelor’s program entrants in Türkiye for the period of 2019-2024. The estimates underscore the heterogeneous impacts of COVID-19 on mathematical aptitude measured by the university entrance exam performances of students. Heterogeneities across exam types along with uniformity across programs provide insights to inform post-pandemic educational policy and future exam design.
