AB - The purpose of this study was to analyze the difference of academic achievement by residential area and gender differences in the academic achievement between three areas (big city, small city, and rural area). Through the results, it was proved that academic achievement is closely related to residential area and gender differences; academic achievement is also different depending on the residential area. The following are the results of this study. First, when the difference of academic achievement by residential area was analyzed, the results showed that residential area affects students' academic achievement. 3rd, 4th, 5th grade students' academic scores were the highest in big cities, whereas academic scores in the rural areas were higher than those in small cities for most of 3rd, 4th, 5th grade subjects, with an exception for some of the 5th grade subjects. Hence, students' scores were high in the order of big city - small city - rural area. Second, when comparing distributions by the score level depending on the residential area, the results showed that distribution by the score level also showed regional differences. Third, gender differences in the academic achievement showed different patterns according to regions, and the patterns changed depending on the grade. In the 3rd grade, there were gender differences focused on urban areas. However, in the 5th,there were gender differences in many of the subjects focused on rural areas. Thus, the results showed that gender differences moved from urban to rural areas as students entered upper grades.
