The purpose of this study is to analyze the screening ratio and practical skill test of the exam of Department of Physical Education in National Universities which are the institutions to nurture PE teachers to make a comparative analysis of common things and differences of those exams. To do the study, 11 National Universities which have Department of Physical Education were selected as subjects. Screening ratio and details of practical skill test were analyzed based on the exam materials of those colleges in 2012. From the analysis, it was found that exam of department of Physical Education was composed of National College Entrance Exam, Practical Skill Test, Comprehensive School Record of High School, Interview and Aptitude and Personality test and universities have different schemes to select their students.

Among them, National Universities Entrance Exam was the most important element. Practical skill test was composed of basic physical strength test and sports skill test. There were various variations in the number and contents of the measurements among schools. Basic physical strength elements were limited to agility, quick reaction, muscle endurance and flexibility. For sports skill test, gymnastics, athletics, volley ball, basketball, soccer, handball and dancing were tested. Accordingly, it is thought necessary to introduce more objective and valid examination system to verify qualifications and capabilities of the students suitable for department of physical education which nurtures future PE teachers.
