Abstract	This thesis studies some of the recent developments within the German education system. The aim is to provide an orientation with respect to the effectiveness and appopriateness of the institutional setting within today's education system. My main interest for the analyses is to evaluate how the institutional setting affects educational chances and choices. The studies focus on the two fringes of formal education: early and higher education. With respect to early education, this thesis studies how school entrance screenings affect the individual and the class composition of competencies at school entry. My research on higher education evaluates recent changes in the higher education sector. First, the implementation of the Bachelor degrees in Germany is studied in order to show whether the restructuring of degrees affected the number of matriculated students and drop-outs. Second, I assess the influence of multidimensional university rankings and an excellence competition on the application behavior of prospective students. Third, I analyze a reform decentralizing university admission to law schools with respect to the efficiency and quality of student-university matching within centralized and decentralized university admission procedures.
