ABSTRACT
The correlation between the mathematics College Entrance Examination results
and students' independent learning ability and college mathematics examination results has
always been one of the issues concerned by people from all walks of life. Questions such as
whether the mode of the deliberate training for getting a high score in the College Entrance
Examination has a certain negative impact on students' independent thinking and learning
ability have been prompting the continuous reform of the College Entrance Examination
system. Based on the simple correlation analysis of the questionnaire results and the chi- square test of some questions, we found: There is no obvious correlation between College
Entrance Examination mathematics score and autonomous learning ability, and the
correlation between College Entrance Examination mathematics score and college
mathematics score is not high. Part of the reason why students get high marks in the College
Entrance Examination comes from "heteronomy", while university learning relies more on
"self-discipline". Part of the students' use of “sea test tactics” is not to improve the ability of
autonomous learning, but only to help improve test scores. And students with stronger
autonomous learning ability are more likely to achieve higher scores in College Entrance
Examination and college mathematics.
