Analysis and policy implications of the selected issues are summarized as follows.  \n1. An analysis of the peer effect in the classroom with Korean SAT score data  \nThis study empirically analyzes how the characteristics of classroom peers affect the individual student's academic performance with Korean SAT score data in 1995. The empirical results of this study are as follows:  \nFirst, the characteristics of the peer group influence an individual student's academic performance significantly. The higher average level or heterogeneity (standard deviation of score), the higher score is resulted.  \nSecond, this negative impact of low-grade peers overwhelms any positive impact of high-grade peers on average. Thus, we need to calculate the net effect of peer effect in discussions of education reform. Social consensus is required as to how much one should weigh both effects.  \n2. An analysis of labor market performance according to the Korean SAT score distribution of each school  \nThis study reviews whether the characteristics of a school among Korean high schools affect labor market performance with recognizable peer effect. Subjects in the analyzed sample are of university and college graduates whose Korean SAT scores appear in the dataset, except for repeaters, in 2001. This study analyzes the influence of individual score, of average score of a school the subject is involved in, and of score distribution in the school on one’s labor market performance.  \nProviding excellent students with concentrated efforts in education collectively might be better and more effective at improving labor market performance.

An analysis on Korean SAT score improvement at Special Purpose high schools  \nThis study analyzes differences in test results between general graduates and special purpose high school graduates. This paper analyzed Korea Education and Employment Panel (fourth wave, 2007) KRIVET (Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education & Training) data utilizing a 2SLS (two-stage least squares) estimate model with instrumental variables in order to resolve the endogenous bias problem. The results are as below.  \nFirst, it does not show that Korean SAT grades of special purpose highschool students are better than those of general high school students. Second, for special purpose high schools and foreign language high schools in Seoul or other metropolitan cities, educational performance is superior to that in high schools in small and medium-sized cities.  \nIn general, these results show that Special Purpose high school education seems to have limited benefits. Therefore, reforming Special Purpose high schools is an important issue in terms of education policy.  \n4. Analysis of the effect of the EBS Korean SAT lecture program  \nIn July 2007, the Ministry of Education and Science/Technology announced mitigation measures of private education expenditure. The object aimed to reduce the burden of private education expenditure through the transition of educational demand into EBS Korean SAT lectures. An additional objective was to decrease educational differences between social classes and between local areas by expanding educational opportunities. The Ministry of Education and Science/Technology also suggested that Korean SAT performance would reflect more of EBS lecture contents.
