%X The purpose of this study was to compare the physics questions of the university entrance exam with the questions asked at the physics courses at high schools according to BloomĄ¯s Taxonomy. Twelve physics teachers teaching in high schools located in the centre of Kdz. Eregli of Turkey form the sample of this study. The data of the study was obtained by examining the documents. 76 physics questions asked at University Entrance Exams between the years of 2000 and 2003 were collected and examined with respect to BloomĄ¯s taxonomy. Then, 556 physics questions collected from the physics teachers were also collected and examined regarding the cognitive levels of BloomĄ¯s Taxonomy. The results showed that physics questions asked at Turkish University Entrance Exams have the quality of measuring the ability of application, analysis, systhensis and evaluation. But the high school questions have the qualities of measuring the ability of knowledge, comprehension and application.
