This study examines score data from the 77th Annual College Entrance Examinations with respect to test reliability and test scores distribution under the classical linear model (X = T +ε) The SpearmanBrown formula and the Cronbachαare employed to estimate the reliability coefficients of the ten subject test, while the Lilliefors’, version of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is used to test the normality of the test scores and the corresponding Box-Cox transformed scores. The results of this study show that (i) except for the biology test, the reliability coefficients of the other nine tests are unable to meet the criterion of 0.90; (ii) the score distributions of ten tests are all deviated from the normal distribution. The implication of the results suggests that the improvement of test construction for ten tests be needed and that further research on the fit of the classical linear model be investigated.
