Abstract: The National Association of Postgraduate Studies in Econornics (ANPEC) administers yearly the entrance examination for candidates all over Brazil. In this paper we report the main results of an statistical analysis of the grades obtained by candidates in the period 1976-1982. The grades correspond to four subjects: Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Statistics and Mathematics. We used Factor Analysis to justify the summarization of those faur grades into two, namely Economic Theory and Quantitative Methods. We also used Multiple Analysis of Variance to study those two response variates in relation to three factors of classification. In addition to trying to identify differences in the candidates levels with reference to the same factors, we investigated possible interactions among the factors, and produced several classifcations of the centers.
